He said these when he was meeting Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina at her office.

PM's Press Secretary said the Governor thanked the Prime MinIster for introducing Dhaka-Agartala bus service. He also appreciated Bangladesh's progress in various sector.

Tathagata Roy appreciated the leadership of the Prime Minister and congratulated her on the occasion of inauguration of the construction of the Padma Bridge.

The governor, who arrived Bangladesh to inaugurate a memorial in Kushtia in memory of Indian soldiers died in a fight with Pakistani army in 1971, said it is wrong that people of Bangladesh are history-ignorant nation.

Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina recalled the role and support of Tripura government and its people during Bangladesh's War of Liberation. She said Bangladesh for a long time after assassination of Bangabandhu walked on wrong track and the rulers had tried to portray wrong history.

But the Awami League government after coming to power allowed people to know the real history and new generation is very curious to know about the real history of the country.

The prime minister said the proposed Bangladesh-Bhutan-India-Nepal road network would strengthen connectivity among the country and open up the door of regional connectivity.

Sheikh Hasina informed the Tripura governor of her government's initiative to establish Rabindra University in Sahjadpur, Sirajganj saying one of its faculty would be set up at Kushtia.
