Captain K Arvindakshan Pillai told Karma News that Lahore was captured by India and 90,000 Pak soldiers were imprisoned. The current issues in Bangladesh are frightening for India as well. The media now needs to pay attention to some of the things that happened behind the scenes in the 1971 Bangladesh war. In 1969, the then military ruler Ayub Khan resigned. Resignation after realizing that Pakistan is heading towards decline.
Sheikh Mujbur Rahman, a Bengali, won the 1970 election. The then ruler Sheikh Mujbur Rahman was charged with treason and imprisoned. The then East Bengal was seen in a military role. They were treated very badly by Pakistan. Aravindakshan Pillai said that Pakistan has been arresting, tying and torturing students.
Despite the death of many Bangladeshis in the natural disaster that followed, the Pakistani army did not help. Sheikh Mujboor Rahman said that Bangladesh needs autonomy after the popular uprising. Indians accepted and accommodated those who came seeking asylum from Bangladesh. In that situation Indira Gandhi declared war.
