Pakistan was united by religion but divided by language and culture—fault lines that soon metastasized into repeated humiliations and injustices. As protests erupted, the Pakistan Army unleashed a brutal campaign to silence dissent: three million people were killed, over 200,000 women were subjected to sexual violence, and ten million refugees fled to India, all for demanding autonomy.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nThe silence of the international community was deafening. The US and China, openly tilting towards Pakistan, did nothing to halt the unfolding genocide. The subcontinent had become the epicentre of a superpower contest.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nIndia stood isolated.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nImpoverished and destabilized by left-wing insurgency yet morally steadfast, Indira Gandhi’s India—working in close coordination with Tajuddin Ahmad, Bangladesh’s first PM, and the resolute Mukti Bahini—waged a covert struggle for nine months. This culminated in a swift thirteen-day military campaign that broke the Pakistan Army, resulted in the capture of 93,000 prisoners of war, and delivered Bangladesh in one of history’s fastest and most decisive liberations.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nAll arms of the Indian state and Bangladesh’s government-in-exile had worked in perfect unison to deliver a glorious victory, yet peace proved fragile. Chaos followed almost immediately after independence, and nearly all the central figures of the struggle were eventually assassinated in a spiral of senseless violence.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nHalf a century later, as the same hatreds of language, identity, and faith erupt again, the ghosts of 1971 return—not as memory, but as warning.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEAN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789365473360\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePackage Dimensions:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.4 x 6.4 x 1.1 inches\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguages:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"BluOne Ink Pvt.
