when you want to take a threat scenario into consideration you also have to consider indian airforce and navy ,india will never go into a war with just its army,indian army airforce and navy always work together(for example operation cactus against the maldivean rebels etc0,the navy will block of the sea route of supplies for bangladesh starving bangladeshi economy while launching precision strikes on key targets,the army will just come in to consolidate the gains,airforce will acheive air superiority as it completely crushes the bangladeshi airforce india also has 60 attack helicopters if we do not add dhruvs(300 to be inducted each capable of carrying of firing 16 atgms0 and the 200+mi17's also capable of carrying atgms HOW MANY BATTLE TANKS DID YOU SAY BANGLADESH HAS? india's paramillitary forces are much larger and better equipped than the regular bangladeshi army,bangladesh's economy is so weak and fragile that it will not be able to sustain a full fledged war with india not even a guerrila war,all bangladsh can do is to resort to unfair means like torture and murder of indian paramillitary personnel on patrol that too only till india decides that they have had enough of it and decide to whip them the bangladeshi head of state will come running to new delhi begging for mrecy like it happened after india gave bangladesh a warnig after the bsf incident.
the best course for bangladesh is to maintain friendly relations with india like srilanka and both the nations can benefit from this.
