The Chicken ’s Neck : India ’s Strategic Lifeline The Chicken ’s Neck , also known technically as the Siliguri Corridor, is a narrow strip of land in North Bengal. It connects the rest of India with its eight northeastern states. Barely 22 kilometers wide at its narrowest point, this corridor borders Nepal, Bhutan, and Bangladesh. The Siliguri Corridor, a slender 22-kilometer-wide strip of land in northern West Bengal, derisively called the Chickens Neck for its vulnerability, serves as Indias sole terrestrial link to its eight northeastern states. Bangladesh leader Muhammad Yunus' remarks on the landlocked nature of India 's Northeastern states and the sharp response from the region's leaders have again put the vital Chicken 's Neck corridor ... Known in strategic circles as the “ Chicken Neck ", this narrow passage is the only terrestrial link between the Indian mainland and the eight north-eastern states, making it one of the most sensitive and closely monitored geographies in South Asia.
