Pakistan and Bangladesh have resumed direct air connectivity after a 14-year gap with the launch of the Dhaka–Karachi flight operated by Biman Bangladesh Airlines, signalling a cautious improvement in bilateral relations.
For India, the development carries strategic significance in South Asia, as renewed engagement between Pakistan and Bangladesh may gradually reshape regional diplomatic and economic dynamics.

Overall, the move highlights how transport connectivity is increasingly being used as a diplomatic instrument in South Asia.
