Indian BJP MP Nishikant Dubey has claimed that the time has come to bring regions like Noakhali, Chittagong port, and Sylhet in Bangladesh back under Indian control, alongside Pakistan-occupied Kashmir. He made this claim in an interview with Indian media ANI on Friday.
Dubey accused India's first Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru of forcibly handing over Noakhali, Chittagong, and Sylhet to Pakistan, claiming these regions were once part of the Tripura state.
Citing former Tripura king Bir Bikram Singh, the BJP MP said these areas belonged to Tripura and the king had questioned Nehru's actions. He added that the loss of Chittagong port hindered the development of Northeast India.
