  • Disease and Death: Issues of Public Health Among East Bengali Refugees in 1971 -Utsa Sarmin
    Disease and Death: Issues of Public Health Among East Bengali Refugees in 1971 -Utsa Sarmin Introduction: “Because of 'Operation Searchlight', 10 million refugees came to India, most of them living in appalling conditions in the refugee camps. I cannot forget seeing 10 children fight for one chapatti. I cannot forget the child queuing for milk, vomiting, collapsing and dying of cholera. I cannot forget the woman lying in the mud, groaning and giving birth.”1 The situation of East Bengali refugees in 1971 was grim. The Bangladesh liberation war of 1971 witnessed 10 million people from the erstwhile East Pakistan (present Bangladesh), fleeing the persecution by Pakistani soldiers and coming to India seeking refuge2. The sudden influx of refugees created a mammoth humanitarian crisis. At one hand, the refugees were struggling to access food, water, proper sanitation, shelter. On the other hand, their lives were tormented by various health issues. The cholera epidemic of 1971 alone killed over 5,000 refugees.3 Other health concerns were malnutrition, exhaustion, gastronomical diseases. “A randomized survey on refugee health highlights the chief medical challenges in the refugee population as being malnutrition, diarrhoea, vitamin-A deficiency, pyoderma, and tuberculosis.”4 The Indian government was not adequately equipped to deal with a crisis of such level. Even though there was initial sympathies with the refugees, it quickly waned and by May 1971, the then Prime Minister of India, Indira Gandhi characterized it as a “national problem”5 and by July, she described the problem could potentially threaten the peace of South Asia.6 The proposed research paper will look into the public health crisis and the rate of mortality due to the crisis among the refugees of West Bengal in 1971.

  • Sample Statements Bengali Hindu Genocide 2021
    1971 BENGALI HINDU GENOCIDE DRAFT STATEMENTS FOR ELECTED OFFICIALS DRAFT 1 I join with my Bengali Hindu constituents to honor and commemorate the tragedy that befell their people 50 years ago. The 1971 Bengali Hindu Genocide was one of the worst human tragedies of the 20th century and sadly is one of the few unrecognized or forgotten genocides. On March 25, 1971, the Pakistani Army launched an offensive called ‘Operation Searchlight’ into East Pakistan, present-day Bangladesh, thus beginning the 10-month genocidal campaign. Over that time, approximately 2-3 million people were killed, over 200,000 women were raped in organized rape camps, and over 10 million people were displaced, most finding refuge in India. But don’t just take it from me. Here are the words of the late U.S. Senator Edward Kennedy (D-MA) who visited the refugee camps in India in 1971 as the genocide was unfolding in neighboring Bangladesh. On the floor of the U.S. Senate on November 7, 1971 Senator Kennedy said, “Field reports to the U.S. Government, countless eye-witness journalistic accounts, reports of International agencies such as [the] World Bank and additional information available to the subcommittee document the reign of terror which grips East Bengal (East Pakistan). Hardest hit have been members of the Hindu community who have been robbed of their lands and shops, systematically slaughtered, and in some places, painted with yellow patches marked ‘H’. All of this has been officially sanctioned, ordered and implemented under martial law from Islamabad.” I ask my colleagues to join me, the Bengali Hindu diaspora, and human rights activists around the world in remembering the tragic events of the 1971 Bengali Hindu Genocide so that we and the world may never forget.

  • Rnöý S9 Ýý6ý Ýx Colonel Oli Ahmad, Bir Bikram (Retd. ) June 2003
    rnöý S9 ýý6ý ýx REVOLUTION, MILITARY PERSONNEL AND THE WAR OF LIBERATION IN BANGLADESH BY Colonel Oli Ahmad, Bir Bikram (Retd.) A Thesis Submitted to the School of Social Science & Law OXFORD BROOKES UNIVERSITY In partial fulfillment of the requirement for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY June 2003 ABSTRACT The study has focused on the role and motivations of the Bengali military officers in the Pakistan Army during the initial but critical phase of the Liberation War of 1971. Unlike the military in some other Third World Countries, at that point of time, the Bengali military officers made a move neither for grabbing political power nor for replacing a corrupt or inept regime but for establishing an independent state of Bangladesh. The concept of liberation war has been used in this study in the senseof an internal war between East and West Pakistan. The aims of this thesis are to explain why the Bengali military officers became actors in the Liberation War of 1971, how they were motivated for this war, when they took the crucial decision to revolt and declare independence of Bangladesh and how they proceeded till the formation of the Bangladesh Government-in-exile. The findings are also noteworthy. The Bengali political leaders prepared the people of East Pakistan for a revolutionary movement, but at the critical moment they faltered. As one of the dominant social forces in East Pakistan, the Bengali military officers watched from close quarters how the ethnically, linguistically and culturally different East Pakistanis were subjected to the discriminatory policies of the ruling elite in Pakistan which led to the wholesale alienation of the Bengalis.

  • Bangladesh's Genocide Debate; a Conscientious Research
    Bangladesh’s genocide debate; A conscientious research Collective and institutional commissions of crimes diminish the self-recognition of culpability; individual responsibility loses its meaning once it is applied to a group or a community that shares a common membership and is associated through the perpetration of a crime. Often this is applied to mass atrocities such as genocide. The perpetrators believe they are invincible since they act within a social structure that dictates their actions and make them feel part of a collective criminal project, which in return weakens any sense of personal liability. “Where all are guilty, no one is; confessions of collective guilt are the best possible safeguard against the discovery of culprits, and the very magnitude of the crime the best excuse for doing nothing” - Hannah Arendt This paper will explore this notion by implementing it to the commission of war crimes, and will examine how the concept of power and particularly imposition of control and avoidance of responsibility facilitates its realization. It will outline a definition of war crimes and analyse the legal safeguards and frameworks that have been implemented in order to prevent their happening. The paper will further theoretically unravel the notion of political power and authority, and will subsequently examine how the two phenomena are interrelated – how powerful individuals and States are able to evade the law or use it to their own advantage while disregarding human rights, in order to pursue political objectives. This paper will further set out an approach of analysing this powerful juridical-political superstructure of the State apparatus through drawing an example with the war crimes and genocide committed over the East Pakistani people (present-day Bangladesh) during the 1971 Bangladesh Liberation War.

  • LIBERATION WAR MUSEUM BATALI HILL, CHITTAGONG By
    LIBERATION WAR MUSEUM BATALI HILL, CHITTAGONG By Rayeed Mohammad Yusuff 11108022 Seminar II ARC 512 Submitted in partial fulfilment for the requirements for the degree of Bachelor of Architecture Department of Architecture BRAC University Fall 2015 LIBERATION WAR MUSEUM | 2 ABSTRACT The year of 1971 is the most significant year in the lives of the Bangladeshis. Our liberation war of 1971 is an event which marks the existence of Bangladesh. It was a war fought by the people and these valiant men and women helped us gain this country. However, in the process of gaining independence, several lives were lost, many girls and women raped and numerous people had to be displaced. The heinous Pakistanis did not hesitate once to kill the innocent people of Bangladesh. It has been almost 44 years since this war was fought and unfortunately, many people are slowly forgetting the importance of this war and the real story behind it. I believe that the people who had been present during the war and have actively participated in it are the ones who can give us the most accurate information about our Liberation War. During this long span of time, we are slowly losing most of them and we urgently need to preserve their experiences and information for the future generation. Chittagong, being a historic site during the Liberation War of 1971, does not have a Liberation War Museum of a large magnitude compared to Dhaka. Chittagong not only contributed during the Liberation War but also played a major role before it. Hence, an attempt was made to design a Liberation War Museum in Batali Hill, Chittagong.

  • On 29 Sep 2016, a Retaliatory Surgical Strike Was Launched Against Terrorist Launch Pads in Nowgam Sector of Kupwara District An
    MEMORIES OF MY Brig Abraham Chacko (Retd) INITIAL YEARS IN 10 PARA SPECIAL FORCES commissioned in 10 PARA (SF) is AND 1971 INDO PAK a Special Forces Veteran, who took active part in the 1971 War – WAR (OPERATION ‘RAID ON CHACHRO’. CACTUS LILLY) On 29 Sep 2016, a retaliatory surgical strike was launched against terrorist launch pads in Nowgam sector of Kupwara district and Poonch district in the wake of the Fedayeen attack on an Army Post in Uri, where 19 soldiers were killed. It was indeed an apt reply to Pakistan and Army Special Forces were in the news. All of a sudden, from the past, there were many articles on the surgical strike by 10 Para Commando in the National media. TV 18, Zee TV, TV 9, Aaj Tak and many more channels were talking about the surgical strike operations of 10 Para Commando in 1971 Indo Pak War. On reading these articles and viewing the videos, I felt that most of them were misquoting on the operations conducted by us in the war. The Zee TV clip eulogizing on how a Robin Hood dacoit, Thakur Balwant Singh, played a significant role in the Chachro Raid caught my attention. It was at this time, I realised that what really happened during 1971 will remain blacked out as not many events have been related first hand. Many of us who were part of 2 the operation have passed on and soon the others too will fade away. Hence, I felt the need to recount the events of that period so that in times to come, soldiers of 10 Para will know about the valiant elders of the Paltan that went into operations in the Tharparkar deserts of Sindh Province in December 1971.

  • Bangladesh: Literary Responses to the Tragedy of 1971 Ahmad Salim
    Bangladesh: Literary Responses to the Tragedy of 1971 Ahmad Salim Introduction To suppress East Pakistan‘s demand for political autonomy, Yahya Khan government launched a planned genocide on the 26 March 1971. In the following nine months, three million people were massacred; the largest number of people killed in the shortest span of time in human history. People from all walks of life were; students, teachers, professors, doctors, nurses, scientists, politicians, poets, artists, writers, government workers, military and paramilitary personnel, industrialists, shopkeepers, rickshaw pullers were executed. Innocent and unarmed villagers; men, women and children were rounded up, raped, mutilated and massacred by the West Pakistani troops. The outcome of this genocide was the Liberation War of 1971. On 16 December 1971, the Pakistani army occupation ended and they surrendered before the joint command of the Mukti Bahini (Freedom Fighters) and Indian Army. An independent and sovereign Bangladesh was born. Literature is often written in response to a specific occurrence and occasion. Writers and poets are called the ―conscience of the people.‖ We find mixed literary responses in Pakistan during the Tragedy of 1971 in East Pakistan. Renowned names such as Ahmad Nadim Qasmi, Mumtaz Mufti and Safdar Mir favoured the government‘s atrocities and brutality against the innocent Bengali people. Writers and poets sympathizing with the Bengalis and against the government‘s drastic action lacked courage to write their opposing views and remained silent. The truly exceptional thinkers like Faiz Ahmed Faiz, Habib Jalib, Ata Shad, Gul Khan Naseer, Ajmal Khattak, Ghani Khan, Sheikh Ayaz and Anwar Pirzado did not remain silent.

  • Genocide: a Comprehensive Introduction Is the Most Wide-Ranging Textbook on Geno- Cide Yet Published
    ■ GENOCIDE Genocide: A Comprehensive Introduction is the most wide-ranging textbook on geno- cide yet published. The book is designed as a text for upper-undergraduate and graduate students, as well as a primer for non-specialists and general readers interested in learning about one of humanity’s enduring blights. Over the course of sixteen chapters, genocide scholar Adam Jones: • Provides an introduction to genocide as both a historical phenomenon and an analytical-legal concept. • Discusses the role of imperalism, war, and social revolution in fueling genocide. • Supplies no fewer than seven full-length case studies of genocides worldwide, each with an accompanying box-text. • Explores perspectives on genocide from the social sciences, including psychology, sociology, anthropology, political science/international relations, and gender studies. • Considers “The Future of Genocide,” with attention to historical memory and genocide denial; initiatives for truth, justice, and redress; and strategies of intervention and prevention. Written in clear and lively prose, liberally sprinkled with illustrations and personal testimonies from genocide survivors, Genocide: A Comprehensive Introduction is destined to become a core text of the new generation of genocide scholarship. An accompanying website (www.genocidetext.net) features a broad selection of supplementary materials, teaching aids, and Internet resources. Adam Jones, Ph.D. is currently Associate Research Fellow in the Genocide Studies Program at Yale University. His recent publications
