However, optimistically, due to the absence of the fascist regime, the golden chance on the horizon can be seen in developing this underrated sector. The current government must take adequate responsibility for overhauling the sector during such a critical chapter of regional geopolitics.

In exchange for governance in the country, the BAL intentionally obliterated the spine of the sector by not overhauling it sufficiently in favour of India, compromising the sovereignty of Bangladesh.

The modernisation of the military of Bangladesh would strategically "sandwich" India as its other surrounding neighbours already treat it as “hostile”.

The government of Bangladesh Awami League (BAL) always overlooked the sector of defense deliberately in favour of India.

Meanwhile, India, not wanting to be threatened by Bangladesh, consistently objected to the acts of modernisation of Bangladesh's industry of defence.

The cornerstone of Bangladesh's foreign policy “Friendship with all, enmity with none.” by Sheikh Mujibur Rahman elaborated Bangladesh as a peace-seeking nation. However, it played a vital role in compromising the cruciality of national defence later on.

According to The World Factbook of the CIA, #Bangladesh ranks 126th globally and 5th in South Asia in terms of defense expenditure as a percentage of GDP (not the latest data).

Historically, the defense sector of the nation has
not been given adequate attention.
