Trinamool Congress (TMC) leader Kunal Ghosh on Monday said that handling issues related to Bangladesh falls under the responsibility of the Union Government, urging the Centre to take proactive steps in addressing cross-border matters.
Speaking to reporters, Ghosh emphasised that state governments can play a supportive role, but matters concerning foreign policy, border security, and diplomatic negotiations are primarily within the domain of the central government. He highlighted the need for coordinated efforts to ensure security and maintain good bilateral relations.
Political analysts noted that Ghosh’s remarks reflect ongoing concerns over cross-border issues in the region and underline the expectations from the Union Government to take timely action.
