The India Chicken Neck, also known as the Siliguri Corridor, is a narrow stretch of land connecting mainland India to its northeastern states. Measuring roughly 22 kilometers wide, this corridor lies between Nepal, Bhutan, and Bangladesh. Its geographic position makes it a vital link for trade, transportation, and defense. Any disruption here could isolate the Northeast, emphasizing the need for enhanced infrastructure and security measures to safeguard this critical lifeline of India’s connectivity and sovereignty.
