एक समझौते के तहत ब्रिटेन ने मॉरीशस को कौन से द्वीप समूह लौटाए हैं?
Detailed Solution & Logic
Chagos Islands/ चागोस द्वीप
Explanation
Under an agreement, United Kingdom agreed to return the Chagos Islands to Mauritius. The Chagos Archipelago had been separated from Mauritius during colonial rule, and this move is seen as correcting a historical injustice.
एक समझौते के तहत United Kingdom ने Chagos Islands को Mauritius को वापस करने का निर्णय लिया। यह द्वीप समूह औपनिवेशिक काल में मॉरीशस से अलग कर दिया गया था, और यह फैसला ऐतिहासिक न्याय की दिशा में एक कदम माना जाता है।
