good relations always
Since the formation of Bangladesh, it has been our friendly country. India and Bangladesh have been supporting each other on every platform. On the contrary, Pakistan gets irritated with this friendship. He believes that it was because of India that it got divided into pieces. While the truth is that his policies were more responsible in this. Due to these policies, the fire of rebellion broke out in East Pakistan (today Bangladesh).
Why would these pictures be stinging
The war of 1971 divided Pakistan into two pieces. A new country Bangladesh came into existence in the world. In such a situation, it can be guessed that when the chiefs of the armies of India and Bangladesh are meeting, then why would there be sawing in Pakistan’s chest.
Guard of Honor to Shafiuddin
Bangladesh Army Chief SM Shafiuddin Ahmed was given a guard of honor at the South Block lawns. Indian Army Chief General Manoj Pandey was present with him. In 1971, about an hour after the surrender of the Pakistani Army, the then Prime Minister Indira Gandhi announced in the Lok Sabha. He had said that Dhaka is now the independent capital of independent Bangladesh. With this the birth of a new country was announced on the world map.
The glory story of the Indian Army in pictures
In the picture, Lieutenant General AK Niazi of Pakistan is signing the document of surrender. The then Lieutenant General Jagjit Singh Arora of the Indian Army is sitting next to him. In that unprecedented surrender, about 93 thousand soldiers of Pakistan had surrendered. With this, East Pakistan became an independent country, Bangladesh.
Memories of Fakhr are fresh
The picture hanging on the back wall brought back memories of Fakhr during the meeting between the army chiefs of India and Bangladesh. This picture is from 1971 when the Pakistan Army surrendered unconditionally to the Indian Army in Dhaka.
