Himanta Sarma put Bangladesh on notice amid Dhaka's growing interest in New Delhi's strategically crucial Chicken's Neck, also known as the Siliguri Corridor.
A neck for a neck? That's what Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma seemed to indicate after he cautioned Bangladesh about its own Chicken's Neck - not one, but two - at a time when Dhaka has raked up politics over India's Chicken's Neck corridor that connects the country to the North East.
Addressing a press conference on Wednesday, Himanta put Bangladesh on notice amid Dhaka's growing interest in India's strategically crucial Chicken's Neck, also known as the Siliguri Corridor.
"We have one Chicken's Neck. But Bangladesh has two Chicken Necks. If Bangladesh attacks our Chicken's Neck, we will attack both the Chicken Necks of Bangladesh... the one in Meghalaya connecting Chittagong port in Bangladesh is even thinner than India's Chicken's Neck and is located just a stone's throw away," Sarma told reporters.
The fiery BJP leader also reminded Bangladesh of India's military strength, especially after Operation Sindoor, where India destroyed terror camps deep inside Pakistan and pounded 11 of its military bases. Sarma said "Bangladesh has to be reborn 14 times" before attacking India.
While Himanta's remarks are bound to ruffle Bangladesh's feathers, the timing of it is significant.
