Talk:Baniachong Upazila

From Habiganj District

== Heading text ==Baniachong instead of Baniachang in the main name headings

Correction of subdivision from 1936 is wrong it could have been declared as a Thana or police subdivision from that period.

Spelling of Laur Kingdom has been spelled as Laud.

The descendants of the Kings (raja) are partially responsible for keeping the place underdeveloped. Mr Harun Raja was studying at St Hurst with the ex president of Pakstand field Marshall Ayoub Khan and prevented to develop a all weather roads to the village from Habiganj (12 miles). — Preceding unsigned comment added by Safiqkhan (talk • contribs) 04:12, 22 September 2012 (UTC)
