Explanation:

A Mughal era fort on the banks of the river Barak in Assam's Karimganj district would soon be restored. The fort in Badarpur, which before independence was a part of present day Sylhet district in Bangladesh was a major railway and commercial hub during British rule. The fort's fundamental structure revealed a Mughal provincial style, Karimganj Deputy Commissioner Sanjiv Gohain Boruah told PTI here. The Karimganj district administration recently approached the state Directorate of Archaeology and the Archaeological Survey of India for restoration of the fort, which dates back to the 18th century.
