New Delhi: Former Bangladesh Army General Abdullahil Aman Azmi has made a highly provocative statement against India. Azmi stated that peace will not come to Bangladesh until India breaks into several pieces.
‘India is responsible for Bangladesh unrest’
During an event at the National Press Club in Dhaka, Azmi stated that India is responsible for all the unrest in Bangladesh. A video of Azmi has gone viral, in which he says, “India will not let us live in peace until the end of time. India interferes everywhere, including in our media and culture.”
Azmi also alleged that India played a role in the unrest that occurred in the Chittagong Hill Tracts region between 1975 and 1996. This region is located in the southeast of Bangladesh and borders India.

Who is General Azmi?
Azmi is the son of Ghulam Azam, the former head of Jamaat-e-Islami. Ghulam Azam was convicted of orchestrating a genocide against pro-independence Bengalis during the 1971 war.
Azmi is considered a controversial figure in Bangladesh and frequently targets India on social media.
Inspired by Asim Munir
Like Pakistan Army Chief Asim Munir, Azmi is pursuing an old strategy to target India. This strategy, called ‘Bleed India with a Thousand Cuts,’ attempts to gradually break India through proxy wars, terrorism, separatism, and internal unrest, rather than direct war. It aims to destabilise India economically, socially, and politically.
Azmi’s previous anti-India statements
After the fall of the Sheikh Hasina government, he demanded changes to Bangladesh’s national anthem and constitution. In September 2024, he said, “Our current national anthem is contrary to the existence of our independent Bangladesh. It reflects the era of the partition of Bengal and the merger of the two Bengals. How can a national anthem created to unite the two Bengals become the national anthem of an independent Bangladesh? It was imposed on us by India in 1971.”
