ok i had a feeling you might have been looking either for the
mentioned former detached inland section of diu called nagar
haveli
or else for the also mentioned but unnamed yet still extant
mainland complement to diu island
which does in fact bring to 3 the number of discrete extant parts
of daman diu
including 1 island & 1 other piece whose name could have
answered to your anjidiv or angediva

but lo here it is
presumably a 4th piece
