      Good attempt. Both presentation and content are fine. Good knowledge of Indo-Bangladesj relations is reflected. Some value addition can be done here and there, for example, while talking about trade you can mention that B’desh is India’s largest trading partner in south Asia, quote some figures etc, in connectivity you can mention the BBIN initiative, while talking about people to people contacts, you can mention educational opportunities and medical tourism..other points mentioned are good.
      Challenges are also well written. Way forward is fine.
      In conclusion, you can give a mention of India’s Neighbourhood First Policy.
      Keep practicing. 🙂

      Decent attempt, your knowledge is good.
      Introduction is fine. More dimensions could be covered in the areas of cooperation since this is a 15 marker. You can talk about defence cooperation (border management, military exercises etc), land boundary agreement, people to people connectivity (educational opportunities, medical tourism etc), power sector cooperation, India-Bangladesh Joint Consultative Commission etc
      Points regarding trade, economic partnership, connectivity and strategic cooperation are good.
      Issues are also fine. Bangladesh’s concerns over the NRC exercises in India can also be mentioned. Bangladesh being a major recipient of Chinese military inventory, including submarines is a concern for India which could be mentioned when you talk about the China factor in the relationship.
      Way forward is decent enough.
      A concluding statement will be appreciated.
      Keep practicing. 🙂

      Decent attempt but content is a bit less for a 15 mark answer. Try to do some value addition to substantiate your points.
      Introduction is fine.
      Broadly, points mentioned in cooperation between both countries are also fine. However, in points like infrastructure and connectivity, you can talk about some of the projects such as railway lines, bus service, opening of ports like Chittagong and Mongla, operationalization of the Bangladesh-Bhutan-India-Nepal (BBIN) initiative Motor Vehicles Agreement, construction of Akhaura-Agartala rail link etc. Power and energy cooperation, where Bangladesh is importing 1160 MW of power from India could be mentioned. Cooperation in multilateral forums like BIMSTEC, IORA and joint defence exercises (Sampriti, Milan) could also find a mention.
      Points related to trade and border disputes are fine.
      Challenges mentioned are good, displeasure in Bangladesh over India’s NRC could be mentioned. Cross-border fake money transfer, cattle smuggling etc could be mentioned in the last point along with trafficking of Illegal migrants.
      A brief way forward for the relationship would be good if you could write before concluding.
      Keep practicing. 🙂
