JMB Resurfaces in Bangladesh, Threatens India's Chicken Neck After Hasina's Exit
•Jamaat-ul-Mujahideen Bangladesh (JMB) is reportedly active again in Bangladesh following Sheikh Hasina's departure, raising concerns for India.
•Despite BNP's 'strengthening relations with India' stance, JMB's resurgence poses a significant threat to India's strategically vital Siliguri Corridor (Chicken Neck).
•JMB, known for past attacks in Burdwan (2014) and Bodh Gaya (2018), is suspected of receiving support from Pakistan's ISI to destabilize India's northeastern states.
•The organization aims to implement Sharia-based rule and may revive sleeper cells, with commanders emerging from hiding after the easing of government strictness.
•The victory of BNP-Jamaat in Bangladesh creates security challenges for India, including potential communal tensions, refugee crises, and weakened security coordination.
