Sadhguru Urges India to Strengthen Siliguri Corridor
Sadhguru, a spiritual leader, talked about a narrow piece of land in India called the Siliguri Corridor.
He said it's important for India to make this area stronger because some leaders from Bangladesh have said they might block it.
This corridor is like a small neck that connects India's northeastern states to the rest of the country.
Sadhguru used a fun metaphor, saying we should turn this 'chicken's neck' into an 'elephant's neck' so it's stronger and harder to block.
He also said that India should have fixed this issue a long time ago, like after the country's partition in 1947.
He believes that making the corridor stronger will help keep India safe and connected.
Sadhguru urges India to strengthen the Siliguri Corridor, calling it a 'chicken's neck' that needs to become an 'elephant's neck'.
Bangladesh's Muhammad Yunus previously suggested disrupting access through the corridor, which connects India's northeastern states to the rest of the country.
Sadhguru argues that India missed opportunities to address this geographical anomaly, particularly after the 1947 partition and in 1972.
He acknowledges that strengthening the corridor will come with costs but is necessary for maintaining India's sovereignty.
Sadhguru also discusses the broader context of national borders and the importance of sovereignty, using historical examples like the European Union.
