A<\/span>ssam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma<\/a> has issued a stern warning that no nation should consider compromising India\u2019s territorial integrity, especially regarding the crucial Siliguri Corridor, commonly known as the \u201cChicken\u2019s Neck.\u201d In his remarks, he highlighted India\u2019s military strength, pointing to the recent Operation Sindoor as evidence of the country\u2019s capabilities. \u201cThe world has witnessed India\u2019s military prowess during Operation Sindoor. No country should live under the illusion that it can take over the Chicken\u2019s Neck,\u201d he asserted.<\/span><\/p>\n Sarma also addressed ongoing concerns from Bangladesh regarding the corridor. He stated, \u201cBangladesh has been raising concerns over the Chicken Neck, but let\u2019s be clear they have two such corridors, while India has one. Should they even contemplate targeting ours, we have the capability and right to respond to theirs.\u201d He emphasized the geographical realities, noting that the corridor from Meghalaya to Chittagong port is narrower than India\u2019s and that India is just a call away from addressing any issues there.<\/span><\/p>\n Furthermore, Sarma clarified that discussions about the Chicken\u2019s Neck occur strictly within the framework of internet security policy and should not be misinterpreted as provocation. \u201cOthers must not misinterpret or attempt to interfere with it,\u201d he cautioned. Reaffirming India\u2019s global status, he remarked, \u201cIndia\u2019s power has already been demonstrated. I have not even brought our nuclear capability into this conversation. Bangladesh would have to be reborn several times to pose any real threat to India.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n Sarma called for a practical perspective, asserting that India need not place undue emphasis on Bangladesh, referring to it as a \u201csmall country\u201d that cannot be compared to India in terms of power or influence.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma has issued a stern warning that no nation should consider compromising India\u2019s territorial integrity, especially regarding the crucial Siliguri Corridor, commonly known as the \u201cChicken\u2019s Neck.\u201d In his remarks, he highlighted India\u2019s military strength, pointing to the recent Operation Sindoor as evidence of the country\u2019s capabilities. \u201cThe world has […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":138628,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jnews-multi-image_gallery":[],"jnews_single_post":{"format":"standard","jnews_video_option_group":[[]],"override":[{"template":"1","parallax":"1","fullscreen":"1","layout":"right-sidebar","sidebar":"default-sidebar","second_sidebar":"default-sidebar","sticky_sidebar":"1","share_position":"bottom","share_float_style":"share-monocrhome","show_share_counter":"1","show_view_counter":"1","show_featured":"1","show_post_meta":"1","show_post_author":"1","show_post_author_image":"1","show_post_date":"1","post_date_format":"default","post_date_format_custom":"Y\/m\/d","show_post_reading_time":"1","post_reading_time_wpm":"300","post_calculate_word_method":"str_word_count","show_zoom_button":"1","zoom_button_out_step":"2","zoom_button_in_step":"3","show_post_tag":"1","show_popup_post":"1","number_popup_post":"2","show_post_related":"1","show_inline_post_related":"1"}],"image_override":[{"single_post_thumbnail_size":"crop-715","single_post_gallery_size":"crop-500"}],"trending_post_position":"meta","trending_post_label":"Trending","sponsored_post_label":"Sponsored by","disable_ad":"0","subtitle":"News Desk :"},"jnews_primary_category":[],"jnews_social_meta":[],"jnews_override_counter":{"view_counter_number":"0","share_counter_number":"0","like_counter_number":"0","dislike_counter_number":"0"},"footnotes":""},"categories":[200],"tags":[17000,46280,46277,46292,46287,354,36760,46283,46286,46278,46285,46275,46291,46282,46281,46279,46289,43242,46284,45391,18781,46276,46288,46290,45360],"class_list":["post-138624","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-assam","tag-assam-chief-minister","tag-bangladesh-concerns","tag-chickens-neck","tag-defense-capabilities","tag-geopolitical-tensions","tag-himanta-biswa-sarma","tag-india-bangladesh-relations","tag-india-global-status","tag-india-influence","tag-india-military-strength","tag-india-power","tag-india-territorial-integrity","tag-international-diplomacy","tag-internet-security-policy","tag-meghalaya-chittagong-port","tag-military-prowess","tag-military-readiness","tag-national-security","tag-nuclear-capability","tag-operation-sindoor","tag-regional-stability","tag-siliguri-corridor","tag-south-asia-security","tag-strategic-corridors","tag-territorial-disputes"],"amp_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.assamtimespost.in\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/138624","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.assamtimespost.in\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.assamtimespost.in\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.assamtimespost.in\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.assamtimespost.in\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=138624"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.assamtimespost.in\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/138624\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.assamtimespost.in\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/138628"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.assamtimespost.in\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=138624"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.assamtimespost.in\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=138624"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.assamtimespost.in\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=138624"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}![\"Assam](\"https:\/\/www.assamtimespost.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/682d9f87445a3-assam-cm-himanta-biswa-sarma-214017653-16x9-1.jpg\" "\\"\\"")
