Birth of Nation

Bag om Birth of Nation

On 3 December, 1971 India had sent her forces inside East Pakistan, part of a neighbouring state, to save the citizens (Bengali Muslims) from one of the most dreadful genocides, that was being perpetrated upon them by their own so-called ruling class from West Pakistan. This was one of the very few unique battles fought in the annals of the human history where a neighbouring country had ever sent its troops not to capture the country and subdue the people but to save them from their demoniac leaders. What can be more sublime employment of the Army? This book, in quest of the genesis of this war, has dug into the history of the subcontinent and narrated development of the events. The warring countries were once parts of the same country before the cruel hands of politics dissected it into two. The narration included advent of British Rule followed by political development which caused the partition, horror of partition, freedom struggle in Bangladesh, part of author's formative life leading to join army, events culminating into war and the war itself. Lastly each and every Indian showed undivided support to the government in taking proper action including employment of arms to free the poor East Bengalese from untold miseries.
