Sinking State of Bangladesh: Idiotic Musings

You actually have no idea about Bongs of WB.

1. There're plenty supply of Hilsa in the market from Indian sources.

2. The Bongs of WB hate Kanglus more than rest of the India.

3. Hilsa is not a requirement of Dura puja. In our home we don't eat non-veg from saptami to Navami, and on Dashami we often use Hilsa or some other fish to prepare a feast. This too is based on the idea that the feast is offered to Maa Durga who is departing for her 'sasurbari' on the day, as we would throw a feast for our own daughter if she would be departing for her in-laws.

4. Bongs are not going to riot for Hilsa, as only a handful of people - mostly upper middle class actually - can afford to buy Hilsa which costs about Rs.1600/kg during normal time and would cost over Rs.2000/kg during peak holiday season. Bongs can riot if price of mutton sky rockets though.

Perhaps you should lay off your bong-baiting since you obviously have no idea about Bongs.
If there's plenty of local supply of hilsa whom exactly are the Bangladeshi exports catering to ? Maharashtrians or South Indians or perhaps Odias ?

Indians & Paxtanis hate each other too yet both consume each others products in varying proportions . Since when has hate come in the way of trade & commerce either locally or globally ?

What happens in your home doesn't necessarily hold good for the entire Bengali community or does it ?

As regards whether people would riot in WB to protest BD's banning of hilsa , well the same people never protested the treatment of Hindu minorities in Bangladesh . Not now not in 1971. But as legend goes even a 5 paise hike in tram fares used to cause riots in Calcutta not very long ago.

I can straight away see you've also an awesome sense of humour perhaps a reflection of the same in your people.
