Nagaland Minister Temjen Imna Along issued a strong warning to radical Bangladeshi elements threatening India's 'Chicken's Neck' corridor. He asserted the Northeast's deep connection to India, stating, "We are Indians," and dismissed the "Chicken's Neck" as a media construct. Along invoked mythological figures Ghatotkacha and Hidimba to highlight the region's strength and resilience, warning that any challenge to India's territorial integrity would be a grave miscalculation. He also reminded Bangladesh of India's role in its liberation.
