520			_aThe paper looks at the various aspects of Indo-Bangladesh trade relations, including cross-border illegal trade, the comparative trade regimes in the two countries, investment cooperation and the implications of the proposed Free Trade agreement. It particularly explores the prospects and ways of increasing Bangladesh's exports to India, thus addressing the existing trade imbalance. The paper concludes that mutually beneficial agreements are facilitated if the various aspects of economic cooperation are seen in a comprehensive framework and if there is willingness in both countries to compromise and take a long view. - Reproduced.
