Foreign language use must follow national language policy
A state remains dynamic through internal and interstate conflicts and synthesis. Within a state, separate groups arise based on factors such as tribes, religious communities, regional characteristics, linguistic differences, etc. Diversity prevails in the state’s populace. By acknowledging this diversity and adhering to the principle of unity and coordination within diversity, the government must address the issues arising from this diversity in the internal demographic of the state. While advocating for pluralism in culture, if divisions are created within the nation, unity will break down, and the state will not endure. This undermines the very conditions necessary for the state's existence.

State of South Asian geopolitics in global competition
The geopolitical landscape in South Asia is shaped by the strategic rivalries and alliances among global and regional powers. China’s growing influence in the region, through economic and political ties with countries like Pakistan, Bangladesh, Myanmar, and Sri Lanka, is being countered by the United States, which seeks to minimize Beijing’s presence and control. At the heart of this complex geopolitical web is Bangladesh, a country with immense strategic value due to its geographical location and growing population. The political uncertainty in Bangladesh, including the fall of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina’s government due to external pressures from the US, adds another layer of complexity to the region's evolving dynamics.
