Y. 1OO21 P-01-07/73 7 December 1973 The Permanent Representative of Pakistan to the United Nations presents his compliments to the Secretary-General of the United Nations and has the honour to transmit for his information copies of two Aides Memoire, both of 4 December 1973, which the Government of Pakistan has had conveyed to the governments of India and Bangladesh. The Permanent Representative of Pakistan to the United Nations avails himself of this opportunity to renew to the Secretary-General of the United Nations the assurances of his highest consideration. ~~ S Gv / 4 December 1973 AIDE MEMOIRE Begins; The pace of repatriation of Bengalees and non-Bengalees, during the recent past, has picked up. With the introduction of another Boeing Airliner for repatriations between Lahore and Dacca, the rate of transfer can exceed 1200 persons per day. 2. 52,560 Bengalees, mostly military personnel and ex- civil servants, have already been repatriated to Bangladesh. At the present pace, all Bengalee military personnel and civil servants in Pakistan will leave by December 20. Only about 40,000 Bengalee civil servants in Karachi will be left. Bangladesh has been requested to give clearance for their repatriation on an urgent basis. 3. Over 21,000 non-Bengalees have arrived from Bangladesh. The number of non-Bengalees who arrived between November 22 and December 2 was 5,608. On November 30, December 1 & 2, the respective figures were 821, 621 and 521. 4. Clearances for the transfer of over 40,000 non- Bengalees have been transmitted to Bangladesh. Applications of persons under the hardship category are awaited. Clearances for the transfer of 25,000 under this category would be given without delay on receipt of applications. Thus a large reservoir of persons cleared for transfer would be available to Bangladesh. It is the responsibility of the Government of Bangladesh to make logistic arrangements upto points of exit in its own territory so as to facilitate their movement to Pakistan. 5. Even without increase in the capacity of the airlift, repatriation of Bengalees and non-Bengalees can be concluded by February 1974. 6. Repatriation of Pakistani prisoners of war and civilian internees has been exceedingly slow. Only about 30,000 of them have returned so far. They are being sent to Pakistan by one train on alternate days. In respect of their repatriation, the principle of 'simultaneity', is not being observed. It is feared that at this pace their repatriation would continue beyond April 1974. 7. The Government of India is requested to speed up repatriation of Pakistani prisoners of war and civilian internees so as to ensure that all of them are returned by January or February 1974. Ends. ^ December 1973 AIDE MEMOIRE Begins; 1. It has been learnt that the Government of Bangladesh has not so far issued clearances for Bangladesh nationals in Pakistan who were not employees of the Government or members of their families. Without these clearances the repatriation will soon come to a halt. 2. The present position is that of the Bangladesh nationals remaining in Pakistan, only about 25,000 are defence and civil services personnel and members of their families. They can all be repatriated by December 20th. 3. Bengalee military personnel in the Northern region are located at distant places. They are being moved to exit points at fastest possible rate already. Their repatriation rate cannot be increased. 4. The UKHCR has chartered an additional plane. This plane cannot be used except for a few days unless Bengalee civilians are also cleared. 5. The Government of Pakistan has granted clearances for 21,000 persons over and above those who have already been received from Bangladesh. More clearances are under issue for applicants in the first three categories. Also clearances will be issued without delay to 25,000 hardship cases as soon as their applications are received. 6. The Government of Bangladesh is requested to grant clearances for its civilian nationals in Pakistan. Ends. From Anton Prohaska: For the Secretary-General to read on the^ podium. 28 September 1973 AP/gs NOTE FOR THE SECRETARY-GENERAL You asked me to verify the information contained in the attached press analysis by Mr. Tlili, regarding the Indian Sub- continent. Sir Robert sent up a memo which explains the situation in paragraph 2 attached. PT.108 (1-66) - A. UNITED NATIONS NATIONS UNIES Referral Sheet Feuille d'observations DATE: TO: A: Sir Robert Jackson REFERENCE: FROM: N. Beredjick DE: CT: OBJET press Analysis, Monday, 2k September 1973 Indian Sub-Continent Mr. V. Dayal, representative of the IWHCR, was queried with regard to the statement "The Washington Post, reporting on the repatriation of Pakistani refugees from Bangladesh, echoes the warning made by UU officials that the repatriation operation is threatened by lack of funds, and unless the major powers pledge contributions within ten days it will have to stop". ^ It appears that the UUHCR has consistently taken the position that the airlift operation, which was started on an urgent basis, could only initially be funded from various carry-over funds from other projects, and would grind to a halt very soon unless the major donors not only pledged but made a cash contribution within the immediate future. Thus although the OTHCR New York has no information with regard to the source for the Washington Post, they consider it as a result of the pressure that the UNHCR has been trying to keep on potential donors to come forward with contributions.Sf In this respect, UNHCR regards the reference by the Washington Post as helpful rather than detrimental.

  • Political Fields and Religious Movements: the Exclusion of the Ahmadiyya Community in Pakistan
    POLITICAL FIELDS AND RELIGIOUS MOVEMENTS: THE EXCLUSION OF THE AHMADIYYA COMMUNITY IN PAKISTAN Sadia Saeed ABSTRACT This paper examines the Pakistani state’s shift from the accommodation to exclusion of the heterodox Ahmadiyya community, a self-defined minority sect of Islam. In 1953, the Pakistani state rejected demands by a religious movement that Ahmadis be legally declared non-Muslim. In 1974 however, the same demand was accepted. This paper argues that this shift in the state’s policy toward Ahmadis was contingent on the distinct political fields in which the two religious movements were embedded. Specifically, it points to conjunctures among two processes that defined state–religious movement relations: intrastate struggles for political power, and the framing strategies of religious movements vis-a` -vis core symbolic issues rife in the political field. Consequently, the exclusion of Ahmadis resulted from the transformation of the political field itself, characterized by the increasing hegemony of political discourses Political Power and Social Theory, Volume 23, 189–223 Copyright r 2012 by Emerald Group Publishing Limited All rights of reproduction in any form reserved ISSN: 0198-8719/doi:10.1108/S0198-8719(2012)0000023011 189 190 SADIA SAEED referencing Islam, shift toward electoral politics, and the refashioning of the religious movement through positing the ‘‘Ahmadi issue’’ as a national question pertaining to democratic norms. In 1953, a group of prominent ulema1 in Pakistan launched a social movement demanding that the state forcibly declare the heterodox Ahmadiyya community (in short Ahmadis) a non-Muslim minority. At this moment, state authorities explicitly rejected this demand. In 1974, Pakistan’s National Assembly responded to the same demand by con- stitutionally declaring Ahmadis a non-Muslim minority.

E-mail: [email protected] Received: March 17, 2013 Accepted: April 16, 2013 Online Published: June 1, 2013 doi:10.5539/ass.v9n7p173 URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.5539/ass.v9n7p173 Abstract This paper discusses the mutual relationship of some important institutions of the state of Pakistan; the institutions of bureaucracy, cabinet, chief executive and the parliament. It observes the domination of the one over the other. The discussion covers the period from 1947 to 1977. The analysis highlights the strong domination of Chief Executive over the bureaucracy and cabinet. The paper then examines the power and influence of the parliament which were weaker than those of bureaucracy and cabinet. The findings have been made through the analysis of the events, the quotations from some reliable research works, statements of various key leaders and debates in the Assemblies. Keywords: institution, parliament, cabinet, executive, constitution, domination 1. Introduction Pakistan has never been a country where the institutions had been stronger than personalities. The country has generally done well under authoritarian rule though much depends on the way in which that authority is exercised. (British Ambassador to Islamabad, 1973) In Pakistan Parliament is mostly a subordinate legislature.

  • The People Next Door: the Curious History of India's Relations
    The People Next Door: The Curious History of India’s Relations with Pakistan, by T.C.A. Raghavan, Noida: HarperCollins, 2017, pp. 345, Rs 699 Ghanshyam Katoch* ‘The People Next Door’ is the name of a 1968 television (TV) series made into a 1970 Hollywood movie, a 1996 TV film, a 2008 novel, again a 2016 TV film, and, in the case of the book being reviewed, a non- fiction historical book. When we spend time in observing neighbours, the act has a voyeuristic feel. A quote by the late Aleister Crowley, British magician and occultist, in the above-mentioned 2008 novel states, ‘it is evidently consoling to reflect that the people next door are going to hell’.1 However, Raghavan’s book does not convey this negative aspect, which a reader may expect to find. On the contrary, it has a flash of the bonhomie that two neighbours can also have. In Raghavan’s case, the name of the book is evocative of the enigma that is Pakistan—India’s sibling with whom it has a love–hate relationship. When Indians and Pakistanis interact elsewhere in the world in their personal capacity, they embrace each other as long-lost brothers. When they come back to their respective countries, they re-enter a hostile relationship. This book seeks to parse the adversarial relationship between India and Pakistan, tracing its genesis from the birth of the two nations till the second year of the Narendra Modi government, because, as the author states in the epilogue using the words of K. Natwar Singh, ‘The future lies in the past.’ * Lt.

The initial days were very tough for the newly state but with the blessings of Allah Almighty, it made progress day by day. However, due to conspiracy of external powers and some weaknesses of our leaders, the internal situation of East Pakistan rapidly changed and the end was painful as we lost not only the land but also our Bengali brothers. After the war of 1971, the people and leaders of Pakistan were forced to rethink the future of the remaining country.

Abstract The three districts of the Chittagong Hill Tracts (CHT) of Bangladesh have the highest military presence in Bangladesh. Following its emergence as an independent country in 1971, the military carried out a campaign of systematic repression of the Jumma indigenous people of the region. In this thesis, I focus on tourism and argue it is one of the ways by which ruling elites expropriate Jumma lands and circumvent indigenous land and cultural rights. The process is riddled with contradictions. On the one hand, violence against the Jumma has not ceased, and instead, the presence of the military has become normalized.
