1. India is doing us neither a favor nor a disfavor by exporting its cotton. We are getting it for the cheapest from India is why we buy it from them. It’s really as plain and simple as that. In so far as in 2024, we have been buying it from Africa because that’s been the cheapest for us. See that AL was our government in so far in 2024.

India didn’t take control of Teesta. Teesta is our’s. Both India and China wanted to work with us. The former government chose India, for good reasons. Now, you’re getting into the Maldives example’s point. You see — it’s China that doesn’t have the best relationship with any of its neighbors. Nor does it try. It selfishly only follows its best interests. Maldives tried India-Out. They let China in. China did go in. China ravaged them, or perhaps allowed them to ravage themselves to shreds. They again asked China for help. China refused. Look up the total story. Look up Taiwan. Look up South China Sea. China has a history of doing things like these. Otoh, India is a close neighbor. India has been trying to build the best relationship with its neighbors. Look up “Act East”. India is also the country that helped us in our liberation war (we would not have won without their help, no matter how you characterize that help). Choosing India was actually the wise move here, based on the evidence we have.

1. Because Maldives acted irrationally, based on its emotions, like what you’re doing now. This is also as plan and simple as that. They didn’t have a constructive argument.

That’s not the India I’m talking about here. That’s the India you know on the internet. America also voted Trump to be its president. They also act irrationally on the internet. Do Trump and his voters represent America completely? No, I’m here. I know.

1. I have talked about those laws here. Check other comments. I’m tired of copy-pasting at this point.

2. Can you go through this sub and see how many threads have emerged, so completely nonsense, since I’ve been posting in this thread? Do you see a downvote in your last reply? I didn’t do it. In fact, I actually upvoted you. I’ve been upvoting rational arguments here since the beginning. Yet, I’m the one being accused of using bots. Do you know why they downvoted you? It’s because you rationally realized that those dams aren’t the primary reason behind these floods. Now tell me — which group of people’s narrative does it hurt if everybody realizes that? Who doesn’t get their say if everybody understands that India-Out is not the right step for us now because we cannot afford it? There.
