India-Bangladesh Border: Islamist Radicalisation, Regime Uncertainty ...
By Dr. Kanchan Lakshman is a national security analyst based in Delhi, India. His areas of specialisation include terrorism, radicalisation, and transnational organised crimeIntroductionIndia and Bangladesh share a common land border of 4096 kms (Land: 3166.624 Kms; Riverine: 930.076 Kms) in addition to the maritime border in the Bay of Bengal. The India-Bangladesh border, among the longest and most complex international borders in the world, traverses through diverse geological features, comprising hilly terrain, flat land, riverine belt, low-lying land and forested areas. It has historically presented serious difficulties for border management due to its dense population and strong cross-border sociocultural ties. However, sustained bilateral cooperation between New Delhi and Dhaka has contributed to border stabilization over the ten years preceding 2024.This delicate balance is currently under increasing pressure. There is political unrest, growing ideological polarisation, and a concerning resurgence of Islamist radicalization in Bangladesh. Concerns regarding the future course of Bangladesh’s internal security have increased as the nation gets closer to national elections, which are set for February 12, 2026, and the possibility of political change or instability after the elections. For India, these developments have immediate and direct effects for border security.This article examines how the India-Bangladesh border could become a new security hotspot due to political upheaval, Islamist radicalization, and the resurgence of transnational terror networks. It contends that traditional border management strategies may find it difficult to contain the multifaceted threat posed by the convergence of ideological extremism, criminal economies, and regime uncertainty.Strategic Significance of India–Bangladesh BorderThe India–Bangladesh border traverses five Indian states – West Bengal, Assam, Meghalaya, Tripura and Mizoram – regions that are socio-politically sensitive and, in few parts, historically affected by insurgency. The border frequently passes just a few meters from residential areas as it passes through towns, farms, rivers, and forests. Even during stable political environments, complete physical control is challenging due to this geography and thus presents unique challenges that complicate security management. Spanning five Indian states, the frontier navigates diverse terrain, including densely populated riverine areas, marshy lowlands, and r...
