We have got many history lessons and made our judgments based on that. But we deny the present reality ahead of us. The thing is Congress got a big brother attitude and see everyone inferior to them. Under them communalism didnt degrade and Indian societies remained backward as a whole. And Communists are cancer, atleast here. If Communists remain in WB they will have influence over BD communists as well. Trinamul Congress is mixture of these two and proponent of Congress. Momta also wanted illegal BDs out in the past, as an ally of BJP. There is not much dignity of Bengali Muslims in WB. They are OBC and get some benefits if they are religious that’s all. These Congress, T. Congress and Communists showed many unfair attitude toward BD by creating Farakka, no Teesta treaty, no land boundary, unfair business deals, border killings, raising illegal Bangladeshi issues, meddling in BD politics etc. They are in plan to withdraw the lifeline of BD which is Brahmaputra river water. In WB long history they had atleast control inside their state but under BJP influence, it will go outside of the state. Very few notable faces from WB BJP. So hassle of BD will be less when they directly contact with Delhi. And West Bengalis will be less capable to spread hate living among BDs, acting as Bengali good guys. On the other hand BJP plays victim card, fears its minorities and neighbors. So essentially they feel inferior to BD or we can say equal. BJP also is a brown revolution like BD. So in a long run it will degrade itself by replacing the aristocrats. If they destabilize their country by segregating communities why wont other regional rivals enjoy it. Its good for BD, if they have short dikc. Also because of BJP influence, BD people will come out of Bengali dilemma and become better BD citizens to concentrate whatever needed to improve BD. Imo WB is important to BD as well. Contrary to popular belief it has much importance to India. Its transit hub of Bhutan, Nepal, NE, Northern India, BD and important to Indian relations to ASEAN. BD will be able use it as needed, dealing with Delhi bypassing the West Bengalis. I dont see huge loss. People will perish one day, its not helpful for BD to act like Indians and always live in fear as the writer suggests.
