  • Group Identity and Civil-Military Relations in India and Pakistan By
    Group identity and civil-military relations in India and Pakistan by Brent Scott Williams B.S., United States Military Academy, 2003 M.A., Kansas State University, 2010 M.M.A., Command and General Staff College, 2015 AN ABSTRACT OF A DISSERTATION submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Security Studies College of Arts and Sciences KANSAS STATE UNIVERSITY Manhattan, Kansas 2019 Abstract This dissertation asks why a military gives up power or never takes power when conditions favor a coup d’état in the cases of Pakistan and India. In most cases, civil-military relations literature focuses on civilian control in a democracy or the breakdown of that control. The focus of this research is the opposite: either the returning of civilian control or maintaining civilian control. Moreover, the approach taken in this dissertation is different because it assumes group identity, and the military’s inherent connection to society, determines the civil-military relationship. This dissertation provides a qualitative examination of two states, Pakistan and India, which have significant similarities, and attempts to discern if a group theory of civil-military relations helps to explain the actions of the militaries in both states. Both Pakistan and India inherited their military from the former British Raj. The British divided the British-Indian military into two militaries when Pakistan and India gained Independence. These events provide a solid foundation for a comparative study because both Pakistan’s and India’s militaries came from the same source. Second, the domestic events faced by both states are similar and range from famines to significant defeats in wars, ongoing insurgencies, and various other events.

The trial process is a critical part of that, but it is not the only issue to deal with. It is essential for Bangladesh to develop a comprehensive, coherent and principled strategy for dealing with its past. It has not done that yet. The country is at a critical juncture, and it falls on the government to seize the opportunity to make the most of a process of accountability. Any trial process, especially of such a charged matter as the crimes of the liberation war, must meet international standards in order to have any legitimacy, honour the victims and provide some kind of redress to survivors. But that is not enough. After 38 years, the damage to the fabric of society is immense, and a properly conducted trial process opens a window of opportunity to repair some of the harm. The gov- ernment must respond appropriately. My purpose in this paper is not to address the important wider issues of how Bangladesh should deal with the legacies of its past.

I welcome you to the magnum opus of this year’s PMUNC, The JCC: East Pakistan Crisis. My name is Prateek Swain and I will be your chair for the India committee. First, I’ll introduce myself; I will be starting my sophomore year at Princeton and will be majoring in Economics or Woodrow Wilson School of Public Policy (depending on my mood when I have to declare) with a certificate in computer science. I have been debating as well as participating/chairing MUNs since my sophomore year of high school, and have carried on with these endeavors in college. Last year I was the Director for the Korean Reunification Committee at PMUNC, so I’m naturally extremely excited to be chairing this committee and have full faith that it will be a great experience for both you and me. This is certainly not my first crisis, but perhaps the one closest to my heart. Last semester, I took one of those eye opening classes at Princeton on Human Rights with Rebecca (Chair of the Pakistan committee) which set the foundation for this JCC to come into existence.

  • Indo-Pakistan War
    WAR OF 1971 INDO-PAKISTAN WAR Sonam Pawar Purushottum Walawalkar higher secondary school 1 Goa naval unit • The Indo-Pakistani War of 1971was a military confrontation between India‘s forces and Pakistan that occurred during the Bangladesh Liberation War in East Pakistan from 3 December 1971 to 16 December 1971. The war began with Operation Chengiz Khan's preemptive aerial strikes on 11 Indian air stations, which led to the commencement of hostilities with Pakistan and Indian entry into the war for independence in East Pakistan on the side of Bengali nationalist forces. Lasting just 13 days, it is one of the shortest warsin history. In the process, it also become part of the nine-month long Bangladesh Liberation War. • During the war, Indian and Pakistani militaries simultaneously clashed on the eastern and western fronts. The war ended after the Eastern Command of the Pakistan mIlitary signed the Instrument of Surrenderon 16December 1971in Dhaka, marking the formation of East Pakistan as the new nation of Bangladesh. Officially, East Pakistan had earlier called for its secession from Pakistan on 26 March 1971. Approximately 90,000to 93,000 Pakistani servicemen were taken prisoner by the Indian Army, which included 79,676 to 81,000 uniformed personnel of the Pakistan Armed Forces, including some Bengali soldiers who had remained loyal to Pakistan. The remaining 10,324 to 12,500 prisoners were civilians, either family members of the military personnel or collaborators. • It is estimated that members of the Pakistani military and supporting pro Pakistani Islamist militias killed between 300,000 and 3,000,000 civilians in Bangladesh.

  • India's First Field Marshal Sam Hormusji Framji Jamshedji
    India’s First Field Marshal Sam Hormusji Framji Jamshedji Field Marshal Sam Manekshaw had an illustriousManekshaw career path. He was dedicated to his duty and a highly committed soldier. In 1942, Sam Manekshaw was posted at Burma, where he was given double promotion due to shortage of officers, and had to take additional responsibilities. During this battle, he was shot rapidly by a Japanese soldier in close range who pierced 9 powerful bullets through his lungs, stomach, liver, intestines & kidneys. He remained lying in the battlefield for 36 long hours, before he was finally found by his fellow soldiers in an unconscious state. Everyone had given up hopes. Even the Doctor refused to take him because he felt it would be a waste of time on treating a "finished case". However, thanks to his Sikh colleague's Sepoy Sher Singh insistence & perseverance, the Doctor agreed to treat him, but not for more than few hours. Fortunately, within few hours, Sam Manekshaw regained consciousness, but was still critical for next few days because his vital organs were literally out of shape. Even the intestines had to be stitched several times. Finally, due to his firm belief in the ideology of serving the Nation, he overcome all his health issues, and was discharged within days. Over the next few decades, he went on to serve India in several major wars, including the legendary 1971 war where he led the Indian Army with utmost grace & style, bringing Pakistan down to its knees, thereby making every Indian proud. One of the biggest take away from this story is about the power of ideologies which can give a strong purpose in a person's life and can help overcome all difficulties.

  • The Function of Bombay Cinema in Salman Rushdie's Midnight's Children
    Salman Rushdie: A Special Cluster “Taking on the Tone of a Bombay Talkie”: The Function of Bombay Cinema in Salman Rushdie’s Midnight’s Children Deepa P. Chordiya In recent years, Bollywood movies, produced in Bombay and hugely popular in India, have enjoyed a surge of popularity worldwide.1 Praised for their lavish sets and spectacular song and dance sequences, Bombay films, and the conventions of this cinematic genre, are becom- ing increasingly mainstream. Until recently, however, the conventions of Bombay cinema were largely ridiculed, satirized or dismissed by Indian and Western critics as lacking realism. Rachel Dwyer and Divia Patel point out that the Indian term “filmi,” which means belonging to or as- sociated with film, “is seen as derogatory, suggesting something cheap and trashy” (30). Salman Rushdie’s observations about Bombay cinema reinforce this view: [m]ost Hindi movies were then and are now what can only be called trashy…[using] scripts of dreadful corniness, [looking] tawdry and garish, and [relying] on the mass appeal of its star performers and musical numbers to provide a little zing. (Step Across is Line 5–6) While Rushdie’s assessment is a highly dismissive view of Bollywood movies, Bombay cinema nevertheless figures prominently in many of his novels and functions as an important narrative device most notably in Midnight’s Children. Indeed, it is possible to argue that the fragmentary structure of Bombay cinema mirrors and elucidates the likewise frag- mentary nature of “everyday reality” in Midnight’s Children. Moreover, the suggestion that fragmentation central to cinema as well as daily life 97 Deepa P.
