Bangabhumi


Bangabhumi also known as Bir Bongo, is a separatist movement to create a Hindu country in southwestern Bangladesh, envisioned by Banga Sena.
The movement was founded in 1973 in India soon after the independence of Bangladesh to support the Hindu refugees from Bangladesh, who were targeted by the Pakistan Army in the 1971 Bangladesh atrocities. However, this movement did not receive much support at that time. In an interview with BBC News in 2001, Chittaranjan Sutar, one of the alleged organisers of the movement, denied supporting the creation of a new nation. The movement openly became active again on 4 February 2003 when it declared the independence of Hindu Republic of Bangabhumi. since 2019 Manmatha Kar leads the movement, he wanted to combine the Kuki, Jumma, Tripuri and Bengali Hindus of Bangladesh for freedom from Bangladesh.
