Solution

The correct option is A The agreement with Bangladesh will affect the constituent State of West Bengal.
The government needs to consider the relations and the history that the constituent states have with the neighbouring countries while shaping the foreign policy. Therefore, while determining any policy with Bangladesh, the Indian government should consider the relation Bangladesh has with West Bengal.
