Muslims who Invaded India in the past also have the same habit of trying to change the History....But History is reality and it will not change....without India's incessant support Bangladesh would have never existed and....and What Bangladeshis have done...they have brought down the Muslim population in Bangladesh from 37% to 7% and you canot change the History...This Should be a lesson to Indian Politicians who have taken decision to sacrifice the lifes of our Indians....Instead they would have made Bangladesh an Integral part of India and brought down the Muslim population to 7% in the same way Bangladesh did to decrease the Hindu population.....The present govt in Bangladesh is a Timid govt run by Timid forces Internal and External....and it's not a majority govt...otherwise by now they would have Gone for free and fair election.....Any way Bangladesh is a Country given in Alms to the people of Bangladesh....and sinners you know who they are.....We Indians will for ever remember and hail The Every Soldier who have fought for the formation of a free and fair nationRead allPost comment
