Dr. S. Rahman - Head of the Archeology Department of Jahangirnagar University - said: " This ancient citadel and many weapons and supplies can help redefine the history of India. The road with the manholes shows that a very effective government has managed this stronghold, I believe that further excavation will help us find the ruins of a palace ".
