India: Bangladesh, India and Pakistan can unite,  Haryana CM

NEW DELHI, 27 July 2022, (TON): Terming the 1947 partition of the Indian subcontinent as sad and painful, north Indian state of Haryana’s Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar said India, Pakistan and Bangladesh could unite just like Germany’s reunification.

He said “when eastern and western can unite, the merger of Pakistan and Bangladesh with India can also be possible.”

He said “not long ago but this happened in 1991 and people broke that (Berlin) wall.”

After the defeat of World War II, Germany was divided during the Cold War period between the Western Allies led by the United States and the Soviet Union in the East, with the two regions not being reunited until 1990.

Khattar said “the 1947 partition was done on religious lines and, people from minority communities were given the minority tag so that they would not develop a feeling of fear and insecurity.”
