Abstract

India’s contribution in the liberation war of Bangladesh was outstanding. Friendship relation exists between the two countries since the liberation war of Bangladesh. As a large neighboring country, Bangladesh has maintained good relationship with India since birth. In this age of globalization, no country can meet its demand alone. Bangladesh also cannot meet alone. Bangladesh is dependent on other countries of the world for many things starting from daily necessities. Overall, Bangladesh is more dependent on its neighboring country India. Again, India is also dependent on neighboring Bangladesh in many ways. It is through this dependence that relationships are built. Since Bangladesh and India are both bordering countries, they have developed better relations than other countries in security, military, and other matters. Historically, there are many other reasons for the friendly relations between Bangladesh and India. Moreover, Bangladesh and India being members of SAARC and BIMSTEC have developed a special friendship between the two countries. India is considered as an eternal friend due to its contribution to the independence war of Bangladesh. There have been many ups and downs in the relations between India and Bangladesh since the pre-independence period. There have been discussions and criticisms on various issues between the two countries. Various initiatives have been taken to sweeten the relationship. This paper discusses the past history of the relationship between Bangladesh and India, the current situation of the relationship, and how the relationship will be stood in the future.

Abstract

This study seeks to examine the phenomenon of 'dangerous speech' and its connection to the violent acts perpetrated against the Ahmadiyya Community in Bangladesh. The Ahmadiyya Community, also called the Qadiani Movement, originated in the late 19th century in the Indian subcontinent and later expanded to Bangladesh in 1912. Despite this, Islamic clerics and many prominent political figures in Bangladesh adamantly refuse to recognize Qadianis as Muslims. This refusal has sparked riots, political violence, divisions, and electoral maneuvering in Bangladesh. This research employs the "dangerous speech framework" to delve into the underlying causes of violence against the Qadiani movement. Through rigorous content analysis and the examination of various secondary sources, this study contends that political violence and riots have been incited by "dangerous speech" disseminated by religious orators and political figures. Furthermore, it posits a plausible cause-and-effect connection between dangerous speech and violence against the Qadinai movement, suggesting that inflammatory rhetoric can lead to violent acts. Such acts of violence can have a profoundly detrimental impact on Qadinai communities, exacerbating their marginalization and discrimination within Bangladeshi politics and society.
