🇮🇳😠 INDIA ENCIRCLED BY ENEMIES
With unrest surging in Bangladesh, in which Islamists are openly targeting the Hindu community, militants encroaching on India's northern and eastern borders, and economic crises gripping neighboring states, India's challenges are intensifying due to the foreign-made chaos.
▪️The Maldives 🇲🇻has turned its back on India, shifting closer to ChinaZ
▪️War-torn Myanmar 🇲🇲challenges India's security on border states.

▪️ The Taliban's rise to power in Afghanistan 🇦🇫further exacebrated the existing security concerns.
