After the BDR mutiny I doubt that many in BD would believe that comment.

The India Factor in Indo-Bangladesh Relations
Taj Hashmi
Professor, APCSS, Honolulu, USA
One wonders as to why Sheikh Hasina and the admirers of her latest gesture of good will towards India are not cognizant of the India Doctrine at all. Cultivated assiduously by most Indian leaders from Nehru to Manmohan Singh (V.P. Singh and I.K.Gujral were possibly the only exceptions in this regard), this doctrine stands for two things: a) establishing Vrihat Bharat (Greater India) with a view to asserting Indian hegemony in the Indian Ocean and b) to extract maximum economic benefits and political leverage from smaller neighbours by intimidating them on a regular basis. As the act of not recalling Nehrus not-so-hidden desire to undo the Partition of 1947 is a political blunder, particularly for Pakistan Bangladesh; so is forgetting about Indias annexation of Kashmir (1947), Hyderabad (1948), Goa (1961) and even independent Sikkim (1975).

Most interesting is that he is a professsor at APCSS which is run by the Pentagon and the DIA.
I doubt the book is available in India unfortunately.

Actually I don't share my royalties with PDF which I think is an excellent arrangement. I think this an excellent forum to promote my book.

I really doubt of any arrangement from PDF however I think it may be undue advantage for promotion.
Since the moderators have no objection and as they made this thread a sticky I doubt this arrangement could strictly be described as undue promotion.
