Organisations like the Jama'atul Mujahideen Bangladesh (JMB) have been operating under instructions from Pakistan's Inter Services Intelligence (ISI) to create chaos in India's eastern sector, Bangladeshi officials said, reports The Times of India on December 21. According to officials in Bangladesh, the ISI has been as active in that country as it has been India in the last couple of years. In January this year (2015), Mazhar Khan, a Pakistani envoy was expelled from Dhaka for allegedly funding JMB operatives. With operations getting more difficult in Jammu & Kashmir, the ISI has apparently turned its attention to Bangladesh and the Indian state of West Bengal. "The ISI is exploiting efforts by the JMB and other organisations to create unrest both in Bangladesh and the eastern states of India. West Bengal is primary in the scheme of things as there has been long-standing talk of jihadi outfits planning a Caliphate in Bangladesh after incorporating the districts of Malda, Murshidabad and Nadia of West Bengal. Pakistan and the ISI in particular has a lot to gain from the acts of violence perpetrated by the terror outfits. Historically, the Liberation of Bangladesh has been a sore wound for the Pakistani establishment. Improved ties between India and Bangladesh amount to rubbing salt on this wound. By creating trouble in this region, Pakistan can make both Bangladesh and India suffer as unlike in northern India, the borders in the east are more porous," a senior Bangladeshi official noted.
