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.

The photograph History (Standing in the troubles that story, while also containing its own occlusions. The image is of the signing of a cease-fire agreement on 16 December Shadows of ‘Giants’) 1971.1 Signing for the Pakistani army, humiliatingly defeated after a BY NaEEM MOHAIEMEN full-force Indian offensive, is Lieutenant General Amir Abdullah Khan DECEMBER 2016 Niazi. The signatory for the Indian army is Lieutenant General Jagjit Singh Arora. In a telltale sign of the adjacency of the British partition of India, both Niazi and Arora had graduated from the British-era Indian Military Academy. Both went on to fight on behalf of the British Empire in the Burma campaign of World War II, where Niazi was a decorated soldier, earning the nickname “Tiger.” After 1947, the two men found themselves serving the opposed armies of Pakistan (Niazi) and India (Arora). This new ‘enemy’ status led them to be on warring sides during the 1965 India–Pakistan war, and finally in direct conflict in 1971, climaxing in this seated cease-fire ceremony. Newspaper reports at the time used the framing of a ‘house divid- ed’, underlining that the two generals came from the Punjab province that had been bifurcated in 1947. But there was something else dis- turbing the photo of two former classmates.
