It is opium grown in India that was forcibly sold to China by East India Company and the British. When the Chinese resisted that led to series of "opium wars" where Indian sepoys were used to suppress the Chinese. This Chinese refer to as "century of humiliation" where India and Indians under British occupation played a very big role. Majority of the old Parsi, Marwari and Gujarati companies made their wealth through the opium trade under the patronage of East India Company and the British. This is not mentioned in any history book.

THE ZOLDICS reality of European colonization is perhaps 100 times worse than what Adolf Hitler did who was inspired by the British empire. The worst were the Belgians in Congo.

China actually invaded India in 1200 CE. All our historians, history books are silent about this fact. India's North East was a Bengali kingdom called Kamrupa which was invaded and occupied in circa 1200 CE by Ahoms from Yunnan in China After occupation of Kamrupa by Ahoms it was renamed to Oxom which is pronounced as Assam. Assam itself was invaded and occupied by the Burmese from circa 1400 AD to 1832 AD. 1832 AD East India Company liberated North East from Burma and returned it to India but with majority Chinese and Burmese origin people who have never accepted themselves as Indians. The Chinese communists immediately after coming to power in China started insurgency movements in India and Malaysia through people of Chinese origin. Burma also never reconciled to loss of North East to India and has been supporting insurgencies in India's North East. This is the root cause of perennial insurgencies and unrests in North East which you won't get to read anywhere.

@grapeshott yes Dwarkanath Tagore was the first industrialist of India and was close to East India Company. But, Bengal was the heart of the revolt against East India Company and British occupation of India. Which is why all Bengali industrialists and businessmen were marginalized and replaced with those who helped East India Company during 1857 sepoy mutiny aka India's first war for independence. The power structure created by the British took over from the British after 1947. Which is why when we have one of the largest number of billionaires India is behind African countries in global hunger index.

@thedarklord4124 Bengali is a Persian word and not a native word. Which is why your idea of Bengal starts with 7th century. Pushyavarman sounds Chinese to you?? Just like the government in New Delhi you too want to hide Chinese invasion of Bengali Kamrupa in 1200 CE. If Burmese invaded in 1817 how did undivided Assam Tripura and rest of NE end up with such large number of people who are found both in India and Burma?? To wage such a long insurgency against India one needs massive external support. Why there's such large scale insurgency in NE supported by China and Burma right from 1950s where even Indian troops are not safe??

@sreekr Yes as per you and government in New Delhi Bengalis are illegal immigrants in Bengal and Chinese and Burmese are indigenous Indian tribals of Bengal. Few centuries from now Chinese in Tangra, Kolkata will become indigenous Indian tribals and Bengalis will become illegal immigrants. People of Chinese and Burmese origin hate India and Indians whether it is NE, Burma, Malaysia or Singapore. You only have to look at several race riots and pogroms in these countries to know this fact.

@sevenstars4817 Chinese and Burmese squatters in NE are mortally afraid of Bengalis reclaiming their land which is why there's such massive subterfuge to pass off people of Chinese and Burmese origin as indigenous Indian tribals.

@sevenstars4817 if you are not mortally afraid then tell me how "ancient" were Koch which is a Sinic and not Indic name and Rajbongshi kingdoms ?? Are they of Indic or Sinic blood?? How did they end up in India?? Siliguri sounds Chinese or Burmese to you??

@RELIGION IS THE BIGGEST LIE How Bengalis are illegal in Bengal and ethnic Chinese and Burmese " indigenous Indian tribals " in ancestral lands of Bengalis?? Are you aware mongoloid people of NE are same by blood as people in Burma and South China??

@rudalibellator1739 Actually it is the reverse logic China uses to occupy Tibet. By the Chinese Communist logic, India should remain a colony of Britain or if one goes further past a colony of Turkic Mughals. Does the government passes of African Siddis in Gujarat, Maharashtra as "indigenous Indian tribals"?? Does the government tries to hide the past of the Parsis and try to pass them off as indigenous tribals of Gujarat and Gujaratis as illegal immigrants in Gujarat?? Then why different rule when it comes to Bengalis right since 1947? Forget telling the truth, the government has simply wiped out the history of north east which is one of the root cause for perennial insurgencies and unrests stoked by China and Burma in the region almost as soon as the Chinese communists took over mainland China. Same thing happened in Malaysia as well.
