To those who habitually threaten India on the “Chicken Neck Corridor”, should note these facts as well:
- Bangladesh has two of its own “chicken necks”. Both are far more vulnerable
- First is the 80 Km North Bangladesh Corridor- from Dakhin Dinajpur to South West Garo Hills. Any disruption here, can completely isolate the entire Rangpur division from rest of Bangladesh.
- Second is the 28 km Chittagong Corridor, from South Tripura till the Bay of Bengal. This corridor, smaller than India’s chicken neck, is the only link between Bangladesh’s economic capital and political capital.
I am only presenting geographical facts that some may tend to forget. Just like India’s Siliguri Corridor, our neighboring country is also embedded with two narrow corridors of theirs.
