1. BS. Lets look at some numbers shall we? Bangladesh accounts to almost nothing when it comes to TATA's penetration. TATA has a good enough market share in India itself. It doesn't depend on Bangladesh market at all. For instance, the TATA vehicles on Bangladesh roads since 1972 is 53,000 (source: http://www.thehindu.com/business/companies/tata-motors-makes-an-entry-into-bangladesh-car-market/article4140750.ece http://www.thehindu.com/business/companies/tata-motors-makes...). Contrast that to the sales of 1 month of TATA motors: 47,034 units (source: http://www.tatamotors.com/press/tata-motors-sales-for-january-2016-at-47034-units/ http://www.tatamotors.com/press/tata-motors-sales-for-januar...).
Get off your high horse. TATA sells more cars per month than TATA has ever sold for 4 decades in Bangladesh. TATA doesn't need Bangladesh. Bangladesh needs TATA.
2. BS again. If you actually bothered to read what the Water Resources Minister clearly stated: "We are going ahead with five links [of the rivers] now and the first one, the Ken-Betwa link [in Uttar Pradesh and Madhya Pradesh] is going to start any time now,". The Ken-Betwa Link is no where close to Bangladesh and it has nothing to do with the Brahmaputra river. Read about it here: http://www.nwda.gov.in/writereaddata/linkimages/0723832353.PDF http://www.nwda.gov.in/writereaddata/linkimages/0723832353.P.... The Interlink project has been discussed in India for 20 years now. Why was Bangladesh sleeping all this while?
3. Sure you can. But nothing you say will impact TATA's vision and mission which is on the upwards trajectory as far as profits is concerned.
4. You failed to construct your argument correctly. Ever gave that a thought? How lucrative is the cow smuggling even? Lucrative not for India. Definitely for some corrupt politicians and mafia in India. We will put an end to it.
5. Are you seriously saying you know nothing of India's concerns with illegal immigration? The percentage growth of Muslim population in North-eastern states (especially Assam and West Bengal) for example has grown abnormally high between the period of 1971-2001. This is creating political instability as these groups of Muslims who migrated from Bangladesh have false identity with false documentation (which our corrupt politicians are more than willing to acquire for them) and have become a vote bank. How would you feel if illegal immigrants decided on the polity in your country? Not to mention that this illegal immigration has resulted in land being grabbed from local tribals who were dependent on that land for agriculture. How would you feel if Indians illegally occupied large swathes of land in Bangladesh and drove the locals out?
You make it look like all is peaceful at the border which is not the case. Don't you remember the 2012 Assam violence? Read more about it here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2012_Assam_violence https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2012_Assam_violence

6. Smuggling, rape and drugs is definitely a major problem. But this is small in comparison to political instability. Creating artificial vote banks that dictate the Indian state polity is a concern of National Security. We don't want a mini-Bangladesh in India in the same way you don't want a mini-India in Bangladesh.
7. So why do you need to bribe in the first place? Go through the legal route of immigration. India is a sovereign country. Not an extension of Bangladesh. Do not forget that we were instrumental in creating your country. Have some respect for our sovereignty when we showed the same to you in 1971 (when you weren't even technically a sovereign nation). We could have easily sided with Pakistan on this issue and killed at sight all those who crossed the border illegally during your liberation war. When we are showing so much leeway you can't show even a fraction of that when it comes to our concerns? You and all your future generations will be indebted to India forever for what it did in 1971. It might piss you off that I'm reminding you of this but that is the reality. Deal with it.
8. Because you did. You obviously talk about how similar the Indians and Bangladeshis are at the border. That, in other words, is "culture" for you. Are you seriously this dumb to not understand that?
9. When did I ever brag about India? You are the one trying to put my country down and I'm defending it. And why shouldn't I defend India? Indians are doing great in every place they go. Get off your high horse. You need to get help asap.
10. We don't go about bragging about our life standards nor did I do that anywhere in my previous comments. Why are you so bothered about our life standards? Your (Bangladeshi's) life standards are shit compared to even ours.
11. What a stupid comeback. Is that your reply to all the statistics I threw at your face? It just shows how immature you are. Just look at how much you digressed from the original topic. And then you had the audacity to blame me for the digression.
> I am done, not going to comment on this crap anymore.
Don't. It's not good for your health.
