This is an older article about the Siliguri Corridor that I originally posted on my blog on September 22, 2020, during the Indo-China border tension. Following the fall of the Sheikh Hasina regime in Bangladesh through the July-August student-led mass uprising, many strategic thinkers are now referring to the Seven Sisters (the seven Indian states of the Northeast) and particularly the Siliguri Corridor to understand the geopolitical dynamics of this power shift concerning India and Bangladesh relations. I hope this article will help shed light on the strategic importance of this corridor.
This article is about the geopolitical importance of Siliguri Corrditor of West Bengal, which connected the Indian mainland to the Seven Sisters.
