Here are some comments that came in response to Sunday's The Daily Star news report headlined “Infrastructure not ready for taking load”
Amdem, USA
India gave Bangladesh one billion dollar loan to build the infrastructure for its own use. Bangladesh is supposed to build roads and bridges for India's use and pay back the money with high interest rate. Now we hear a different story. Apart from topographical damage, transit will affect the climate. Did not the prime minister think of all these factors before bowing to India's pressure about transit?
M. Shafiqul Alam
The government must inform the nation about the extent of benefits the country will get from transit, as this will cause tremendous pressure on our infrastructure as well as deliver a severe cultural shock. We also feel pity for the adviser who was shy in bargaining on this issue a few months back. Mr. Muhith deserves thanks for his straightforward attitude by putting national interest above friendship.
Mushahid Ahmed Chowdhury
It is understood that Bangladesh has succumbed to the pressure from India for giving the right to passage (road connectivity). India would also gain their trade benefit without paying fair levies to Bangladesh. It seems that the government is now reviewing its commitment following the recent attitude of Indian government towards Bangladesh on different issues relating to our interest.

I agree with the finance minister that the roads of Bangladesh are in a poor state. However, our infrastructure has a lot of similarities to the state of our economy in which the minister specialises.

The main point is India will take all the heavy equipment under some protocols paying zero paisa and Awami League government will be more than happy doing it for India.

It is very difficult to understand the view of our finance minister. I fail to understand for whom he is telling this story of connectivity problem.

What are they talking about? Indian vehicles are already moving through our land. How is it happening without the permission of Bangladesh government?
Sellma
Thank God! At last one AL minister has admitted that giving transit to India is bad for our security, bad for the environment and bad for our already dilapidated roads.

I think our FM is confusing between transit and corridor. Does he know that by offering corridor we are compromising with our sovereignty? Cem the FM explain what was our gain so far? We are against anything at the cost of our dignity and above all sovereignty.
He talked about signing of agreements by our PM at Delhi but till date the nation is unaware of the contents of the agreements, even the parliament has been ignored and left unaware about this issue. Is it that a secret pact has been
