Senior BJP leader Lal Krishna Advani on Monday said he was sad that Sindh, where he was born, was not a part of India.
"When India got independence, it (Sindh) was separated from us. The fact that Sindh is not a part of India makes me and my associates, who (once) lived there, sad," Advani said at an event in the presence of Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina here.
"It (Sindh) was a part of India when the country was undivided, not independent and under British control. I was born in that part, I had my residence there."
At the event organised by India Foundation, Advani said he thought he must speak about the subject in the presence of Hasina.
