India has taken note of reports that an Islamist group in Dhaka called the 'Saltanat-e-Bangla', backed by a Turkish NGO called the 'Turkish Youth Federation', has put out a map of the so-called 'Greater Bangladesh' that includes parts of India, said foreign minister S
Jaishankar
.
The map was displayed in the Dhaka University. "The Government of Bangladesh fact-checker platform, 'BanglaFact', claimed that there is no evidence of 'Saltanat-e-Bangla' operating in Bangladesh. It further clarified that the 'map' was displayed at a historical exhibition in reference to the so-called earlier Bengal Sultanate. The exhibition was held at Dhaka University on the occasion of Pohela Boisakh on April 14, 2025.
The organizers of the exhibition, however, denied connections with any foreign political entity," said Jaishankar, responding to a query in Parliament.
"India remains focused in regard to Bangladesh on matters of national interest. Govt of India closely monitors all developments that have implications for India's national security and continues to take all necessary measures to safeguard it," he added.
