Bangladesh-India Deal Over Teesta's Waters is Imperative

A Bangladesh-India deal over the Teesta River's waters is crucial for Bangladesh's infrastructure development. The deal was discussed during Bangladeshi Prime Minister Tarique Rahman's visit to China in June. China has agreed to support the project within its capacity and help expedite its feasibility study. The project aims to manage and restore the Teesta River, which is one of Bangladesh's most politically sensitive infrastructure initiatives. The deal is expected to bring fresh hopes for progress on the project, which has been pending for several years. The project's success will depend on the cooperation between Bangladesh and India, as well as the support from China.
