Bangladesh's interim government law adviser Asif Nazrul criticized PM Narendra Modi's Victory Day post, stating, "India was an ally of this victory, nothing more." Nazrul made the remark on Facebook, protesting Modi’s message that honored Indian soldiers’ contributions in the 1971 war. Modi’s post commemorated the “historic victory” as a milestone for India, but Nazrul emphasized that Dec 16, 1971, is Bangladesh's Victory Day, marking their independent triumph. The statement highlights sensitivities over historical interpretations between the nations.
