(having finished the vid finally now, and having done my best to get past the rudeness/snark of that Sushant fellow to do so).
So, whatever criticism Indians has about BNP and Jamaat from past experiences, they have to move beyond that. By that I don't mean they need to make truce overnight, but to recognize this revolution was people's revolution outside the perimeter of traditional party politics. And the reason it happened because there is new force that has emerged with a new generation of young people.
That is like asking BNP and Jamaat to move beyond their impression of what BJP and RSS are, criticism wise.
These are heavily charged poles of the same (social conservative) charge.
Till the nature of that social conservatism changes in both societies to the degrees needed (given how politics then harnesses and transmits this), there is not going to be overnight bridges made in the way that you are maybe wanting to see here.
If you can't see the past BAL, BNP and Jamaat, and continue to claim it was CIA, ISI and China, (first it was funny, now it seems more or less every Indian diplomats and think tankers except for few insinuating or explicitly saying this same thing!) and basically deny the people/this new generation of younglings the agency, everyone is gonna have a problem. Because you are failing at the grassroot to comprehend what happened. Consequently from there, it will only be reactionary polices from India based on faulty understanding. You will likely be unable to formulate sound initiatives and proactive policies.
Again you have to let time play out. I gave 6 month chunk to sensor/analyse for a reason (and then another 6 month after it for 2nd part)....and the BD guest seems to agree its just been a month or so.
Things are heated. People on each side are going to put pegs in peg holes of their making while the heat is there. It requires dissipation and proof of what shapes up in BD credibly.
I think professor Shahab explained that part well, Delhi (current political stablishment and the elite) doesn't seem to have the right idea of the 'people.' Otherwise, it should have had a more clear stance on BAL/Hassina's mass atrocities in July-August (esp. when it is already ousted) and shown more respect toward clearly demonstrated will and aspiration of BD people. That much doesn't require cozing up with BNP and Jamaat. Instead India stuck with sheltering a mass murber, (I hope you personally saw what happened during July-August for what it is, and there is no other way to put it about her) and the most hated person in BD while a large Portion of Indian elites (at least who are publicly talking) continue to attributes all the wrong conspiracies about this revolution. I should add that, I don't even have a problem with 'wait and see' approach. But this is coming from the wrong underlying assumptions/narrative.
First thing first, BD has to get its law and order situation and court process in suitable shape. Then we can analyse if these are acting fairly and not vindictively regarding the prosecution and sentencing of what you already have within reach in BD....and all the human agency involved in all the chain of command during the protest clampdown.....and if there is prosecution upon (apparently still ongoing) revenge crimes afterwards too.
Police and army included. Will a case be brought against those in the army that aided Hasina exit....down to the crew on board the C-130 (they did return to BD after all).
What's the process going to be for the police too? The time to show accountability here through the courts. The army is supposed to continue to be interim Law enforcement in this adhoc way going on right now till thats all done? Is that the army's role?
Every bit of it can then be compared and contrasted with the deaths that occured during the Ershad uprising. What was state of prosecution on that matter....laundered into some generalised corruption charge and political rehabilitation.
What has the history been in BD in general regarding political and criminal exiling and amnesty? and the general state of BD courts role in this....and then what they are like now for it (whats different, whats the same....whats good and whats bad regarding it).
Sorry but India or any country in same position and context.... will have to wait and analyse all these things as they play out and collect larger intel picture of BD population sentiments. Simply can't go by words and promise of good faith credibility by some interim admin (with no elected mandate) that they are some entire complete perfect fiduciary for the population of BD....just because they are on the revolution/uprising side that got one power out to replace it.
Then all the talk of even drafting a new constitution on top. Where is BD going to actually dispense its legal resource in all these competing vectors to do? All the issues with extradition past that if you dont do this stuff credibly:
en.wikipedia.org
Study each and every uprising around the world thats happened yourself first. Which country (in similar context as possible) has worked on just words and "trust me bro" (regarding speaking for whole population) regarding 1 month wing and ding with some new "1 year" admin in neighbouring significant country?
This forum already has folks like ukbengali, uksyl, bananarepublic etc that rub against the grain for a reason. You think they are suddenly totally compartmentalised away from various parts of BD population? i keep in touch with BD friend network that only has some similarity intersection with the forum (for a reason) as well, they are long term view types. There is much to be done and proven in the 6 month + 6 month first timeframe, to then properly try make some determination of how the longer term relations are to go between IND-BD....lets put it that way.
The suitable time will have to be let to play out first (and then analysed), as to see how BD organises itself within multi year format for the long run trajectory....forget just 1 year.
In the end of the day, these discussions about unrests, instability in wake of revolution and the direction of the interim government still misses the main question. What was all this really about?
Up to you.
Its just discussions, there are elements of relevance as there are elements of potentialities to the arc thats going to play out.
How the arc actually plays out needs time to play out. I keep repeating this for a reason.
@Joe Shearer can maybe later tell you his angle/perspective regarding time for credibility to base itself. Issues of law are not trivial.
