Episode Is Bangladesh Becoming East Pakistan 2.0? |S3| Ep 35
The killing of student leader Sharif Osman Hadi has set Bangladesh on fire again. But this time, the anger isn't just anti-government, it's dangerously anti-India. In this episode of In Our Defence, host Dev Goswami and defence expert Sandeep Unnithan decode the chaos next door. From the smashing of Sheikh Mujib's statues to the chilling return of the Pakistan Army in Bangladeshi politics, the two answer the hard question: Is India facing a new "Third Front"? The two discuss: -The legacy of the founder (Sheikh Mujibur Rahman) and the general (Ziaur Rahman) -How the erasure of 1971 is opening the door for a "Pakistan-style" Islamic nationalism -The rumor of a Pakistan-Bangladesh mutual defence pact and why that should worry India -What 2026 may bring to Bangladesh and its politics. Produced by Taniya Dutta Sound mixed by Rohan Bharti
