Pakistanis must keep in mind that when Pakistani military started the operation in 1971, nearly one fifth of east Pakistan’s population entered India as refugees. It became India’s problem. Hindus of east Pakistan bore the brunt of the Pakistani army’s brutality
When 3 million Bangladeshi were killed and over 10 millions moved to India as refugees, it was moral responsibility of India to help Bangladeshis and rescue them from genocide by Pakistan.
Conclusion from this whole discussion and narration by various speakers is that Pakistan has not learnt any lessons from 1971 . The thing is that the situation is going from bad to worst even at present.
I am from india . I was in school that time . I remember many social organisation here were collecting garments ,food grains from people for Bangladeshi Refugees . They were appealing people to donate some moneyy ,food grains and winter garments for these refugees here in india .
If people of Gaza are fighting against mighty army of Israel for years , Ukraine fights Russia, why did General Niazi did not fight. He could have defended Dhaka for months. It seems the no 1 army had no interest in maintaining integrity of Pakistan. 😮
1971 se pahle pakistan par atom bumb hota phir bhi tootata, Russia ke pas bhi atom bumb tha phir bhi 15 mulko me toota, Russia atom bumb hote huye kuchh nahi kar saka
I am watching your show from NYC. So far I understood the discussion was why East Pakistan got separated from West Pakistan. Please incorporate the English sub title so that those viewers who do not have sufficient expertise on Urdu language may understand the discussion clearly.
India na jo seekha hai ki kyo jaan de apne bangladesh k liya 1971 mai jab 2024 mai bangladeshi khud 1971 ko bhul gye hai apne freedom fighter ka ghar jala rahe .... Wo bhul chuka 1971 mai kya hua tha hum Indian na galti ki us time
Even today we look at it as a tragic event political failure refugee issue triumph for someone defeat humiliation for someone but try to understand atrocities forced on one region which was together for centuries only few white man made the border and the region is fighting as if it's their destiny... Now we need to understand after world war 2 europe understood their mistakes worked on uplifting their countries now it's one of the developed nations...learn from them work on each other countries make this region superpower again...if we don't learn after 100 years we are still doing these kind of debates
I am from India love you very much you are original brothers parents sisters you are our heart 💜❤️❤ Japan and America friends so we are original brothers parents sisters peacefully life with kind regards love to the world love human being love people love Allah
First step towards improvement is " Realizing and Accepting mistake" But even now our army blames " Politicians" But become angry when asked.Why Yahya gave in to pressure from Bhutto and did not give Prime ministership to Mujeeb? Why Army which is ready to make coups did not overthrow Yahya.?Why Hamood ur Rehman commission report was not implemented?
Why should we not hold the man ruling the country in 1971 General Yahya as the main culprit? He had the option to not listen to Bhutto and transfer power to the election winner Sheikh Mujib.
I think some words in HIndi/Urdu should be pronounced as za as required in writing. In Hindi, there must be a dot under the letter ja which makes it za ( For example, words like Zaroorath or zameendar are pronounced by many Hindi wallahs as jaroorath or jamindar. ) By the way, Bengali is much sweeter than Hindi or Urdu or any Indian language I have heard.
Why would Mujib be trusted over Bhutto when he was the chief accused in Agartala conspiracy case? Although the case was withdrawn on public pressure but it was admitted to be true by one person directly involved in it much more recently.
I am sorry to say that democracy is meaningless in Pakistan and Bangladesh becsuse both societies are highly radicalized and radicalized democracies are more dangerous. But the best part is open discussion like at black hole is at least taking place. Please do not misuse islam at every step like in kashmir.
Every Bangladeshi must watch this show. Pakistan backstab Bangladesh till 1972 and now it's a repeat looking current Younus regime. Anti Hindu brought Pakistan to this pity stage and now Bangladesh with the help of jamaat and ISI becoming Pakistan. Are Bangladeshi so nieve to harm themselves by going on path of Pakistan?? Sir please suggest something for Bangladesh bright future.
I guess you are not Bangladeshi..thats why biased by modi media. Bangladeshi Muslims are very tolerate and they are not anti hindu, and that's the uniqueness of Bangladesh which u dont get to see in India or Pakistan.
@@The_Procrastination_Pro_101 In 1946 Mahatma Gandhi advised the HIndus of East Bengal that unless a group of them fought and died like the 300 at Sparta, they would not be able to live in East Bengal. Only if they showed strength would the Muslims cease to prey upon them. If Bangladeshis have changed in the next 75 years, that is most welcome news.
The realisation is Bengali is 2000( officially only god knows actual origin ) years old and urdu is 800 years old . Fun part is Bengali is older than Islam and Christianity 😂😂😂😂
Hood, every time Punjabis are blamed. If Punjabis were so powerful, they would have made Punjabi the national language instead of Urdu becoming Pakistan’s national language
Because thos is essentially the identity crisis that you guys have embodies.. you yourself dont own up to punjabi history and culture and language.. you abandoned your own lai made a so called islamic language as a identity.. which essentially is hindi in Persian script.. We Indians never made a national language.. because we are too diverse.. im a Indian Marathi Christian.. i have multiple identity not just one ..
The Nationalities or sub nationalities existing in the sub continent have thousands of years of history, language and culture and we cannoy deny it or forge common identity. Democracy and Federal structure may be an answer to keep everything united
😂😂😂 what do u mean by reunite with Pakistan? Bangladesh is an independent country. we dont want to reunite with any other country. but we want friendly relationship with all the neighbouring countries.
"Those who do not learn from history are condemned to repeat it" - George Santayana. The Bangladeshi leaders could read this a few times. And the Hamoodur Rahman report too, written by the Bengali Chief Justice of the Pakistani Supreme Court. The reports sent to a British newspaper by Anthony Mascarenhas a Pakistani journalist of Goan origin should also be made compulsory reading for all Pakistani and Bangladeshi intelligentsia.
Acute Reasons 1. Heavy Awami League Manadate. 2. Z.A Bhutto wasn't accepting the majority of Mujereb & wishing to become P.M of country at central level. 3. Maulana Maudodi & his party Jamiat i Islami was willing to rule at Provincial Level with out mandate. 4. Creation of Al Badar & Al Shamas. 5. Creation of Mukhti Bahni. 6. Indian involvement & inborn wish to damage Pakistan. 7. Indian &Indera Gandhi's smartness to avail the situation. 8. Russian support to india. 9. American betrayal & neglection to help Pakistan at this crucial movement. 10. At UN Assembly Session the act of Mr.Bhutto to tear of the Poland's suggestions to stop the war & solve the problem peacefully. 11. A blunder role of General Yahya for not giving the government power to Mujerb ur Rehman. Chronic Reasons 1. Linguistic problem. 2. Geographic caus. 3. Continuous involvement of army in politics. 4. Continuous neglection of Bengali's rights. 5. Less developmental work in East Pakistan. 6. Considering Punjabi as superior & Bengalis as inferior people. 7. Majority of West Pakistanis in government employees in civil & army cervices. 8. Prominent role of Bengalis in the creation of Pakistan.
ایک ہی سبق سیکھا ہے کہ ایٹم بم بنا لیا ہے ۔ اگر ہم 1970 میں ایٹمی طاقت ہوتے تو ہندوستان کبھی جارحیت کا ارتکاب کرنے کی جرات نہ کرتا۔ اور سیاست دان ملٹری لیڈرز کسی نہ کسی سمجھوتہ پر پہنچ جاتے۔ بھٹو صاحب تو بہت پہلے ایوب خان پر ایٹمی طاقت کے حصول کے لئے زور دے رہے تھے۔
A lie repeated 3 million times does not become the truth! Yes, still too many lives were lost. The seeds of this separation started soon after independence.
Punjabi adventurism has been the bane of Pakistan: Examples of this: 1965 Indo-Pak war; Cargill; founding of Taliban; harbouring Khalistanis who are now asking for a lease to be given to them of all Sikh holy places and whose soul-deep desire is to revive Ranjit Sigh's Empire which includes most of Pakistan's territory. Two things the Punjabi adventurist ruling class could do to save Pakistan: (i) Don't get mixed up in Bangladesh (ii) Drop the Khalistani or we will lose Baluchistan and the Khalistan drive to revive Ranjit Singh's empire including the taking of Lahore will leave a small slit of Punjab as Pakistan.
The soldiers number amounted to three divisions in November 1971 with a divisional complement being 12,000 in East Pakistan. So, not more than 36,000 regular army complement. You can add the paramilitary (razakars) to this. For Mr. Hoodbhoy to insist a figure of 93,000 soldiers is not correct. This is also corroborated by the Indian Bengali writer Sharmila Bose in her book, “Dead Reckoning”. So the discussion has started with hostile elements. On release from jail, Mr Mujib ur Rehman talking to the foreign press in Dhaka quoted this figure off hand and it stuck. Prior to Operation Searchlight the situation had deteriorated greatly with the brunt being faced by West Pakistan families living in various places in East Pakistan. There were substantial killings of men, women and children living there from West Pakistan. I am not defending the army action but it started as a response to what has been narrated and was executed with military direction and planning later. The political situation had been made hopeless by the Chief Martial Law Administrator who joined hands in this evil enterprise not to recognise the people’s vote. The job was far too great for Yahya Khan whose responsibility had been a coup d’état against Ayub Khan so far. Also his military performance was such that when America expressed displeasure in the ongoing effort in Chhamb in 1965, and to stop the operation to please America, Yahya Khan, a known drunkard was brought in to replace Akhtar Hussain Malik. Yes, General Bajwa was right when he commented on the war in East Pakistan, it was a schemed political conspiracy at the highest level. There were some notable commendable actions in defending the country after 22 November when India formally attacked East Pakistan. Just think cooly, the entire populace is against you. What we feel should be directed at Bhutto and Yahya Khan. Admiral Ahsan and Yaqoob Khan deserted their posts when the country needed them. The army was led by an inefficient commander but the odds were too great and the end was inevitable. Finally, Yahya Khan was more interested in the diplomacy between America and China while East Pakistan was burning. It is also possible as suggested by western diplomats and President Nixon in their books that West Pakistan had been saved as a result of the threat given to Russia through moving the 7th Fleet.
Since birth of Islam in desert of saudi Arabia, it failed to evolve itself intellectualy. Only through sword and primitive wars, it did win vast territories. But evolution is the casualty in any war. After 700 AD, world undergone tremendous change in many waydie intellectual, technological, philosophical etc but Pakistan is one place which has gone back on evolution scale. I wish and Pakistan moves forward on the evolution scale, but it looks unlikely mainly due to fanatism built into islamic structure.
General Niazi contemptuously described erstwhile East Pakistan as “ A low-lying land of low, lying people”. With such racist attitudes widespread - indeed the norm - in the Punjabi dominated Western wing of Pakistan, it shouldn’t come as a surprise that the artificial bonds of religion that held these two halves in a rocky marriage came apart. Jinnah’s 2 nation theory witnessed its violent sequel 25 years after the first Partition.
that's how they will merge into india if u read the history of all ancient civilizations persian egyptian roman assyrian thamud-dilmun mesopotamian babylonyan all are invaded and captured by islam but that h-indus civilizations is still there h-indus are the strong resilliancer of this invasion they will get it back under 100-250 years whole from afgan to indo ( most ancient h-indus civilizations ) coz all of them once a h-indus
Urdu was not language of Pakistan and Bengali was language of 56% peoples of pakistan. Jinnah could not speak Urdu. English was state language during independence of pakistan. English may be accepted as state language. Urdu in west Pakistan and bengali in east Pakistan may be accepted as provincial govt language. In India no language problem created after independence of India. Jinnah was a lawyer not political leader. No qualificatin of administration. Sohrawardi was elected prime minister of united Bengal before independence of India and Pakistan.

Pakistan is a failed experiment and sadly Pakistan hasn’t learnt a bit from its past history and misadventures. It’s still continuing with different models of permutations and combinations. Its Army establishment, its political dispensation and bureaucrats ruling Pakistan over different periods in the last 77 years since its creation, have collectively failed to bring about any discipline and order and peace.
The orange jacket lady- why would someone reject her to come and present something professional? Pakistani cricketers and singers are always coming and performing. I think she misunderstood 😮😮😮 something
Ayub khan and Punjabi fouji govt is responsible for separation of east pakistan not India.India could not capture or separate east pakistan in war of 1965.

Why democracy and peace established in pakistan after 1971? Pakistan saved after operation searchlight why wsr started with India and brave pak army surrendered so easily in short time war of 13 days.why stopped war in west Pakistan border?
When you hold a discussion on separation of two wings of pakistan in 71 it is imperative that you must also have a representation from Bangladesh also. Except for Dr. Hood the MIT scholar none of the participants appears to be in an age bracket who were mature enough to discern the propaganda fed by pakistan press in then west Pakistan to distinguish between truth and false Hood. Many an opinions offered by the participants still offer the same bias and lack of information that prevailed at that time. So many facts are still precieved differently by even the intelligencia even now fifty years after breakup of pakistan.
All the erudite scholars on the debate agreed irrespective of agreeing on the number of people killed and Women raped the incidents did happen and whatever the estimated number 56000 killed and 200,000 + Women agree these incidents were indeed deplorable. Hindu women especially eere the targets of Pakisthani Punjabi army men and some Mullahs in west Pakisthsn even declared Hindu women are war booty and rapes are legitamate. When we agree killings were bad, rapes were bad, looking from another angle should atleast West Pakisthanis appreciate General Niazi by surrendering he prevented massacre of Pak 93000 soldiers by Mukti Bahini and also rape of Pakisthani officers wives and daughters who were in Bangladesh at that time ?? One could argue perpetrators does not deserve mercy but even a perpetrator wants personal self protection snd safety of his women.
Do you know Lahore resulation 1940? As per Lahore resulation east bengal may be separated. But Pakistan govt started genocide and destruction of east pakistan.
Pakistanis must keep in mind that when Pakistani military started the operation in 1971, nearly one fifth of east Pakistan’s population entered India as refugees. It became India’s problem. Hindus of east Pakistan bore the brunt of the Pakistani army’s brutality
Pakistan is the only country which needs to invent its identity. Even after seven decades, they have defined only one half of it as “not Indian”
@ProfHoodbhoy sahab, now Bangladesh is also on its way to becoming an Islamic state like Pakistan.
Oh really? Are you preaching godi media now?
When 3 million Bangladeshi were killed and over 10 millions moved to India as refugees, it was moral responsibility of India to help Bangladeshis and rescue them from genocide by Pakistan.
Conclusion from this whole discussion and narration by various speakers is that Pakistan has not learnt any lessons from 1971 . The thing is that the situation is going from bad to worst even at present.
Not one person in the black hole asked, "Why did India not take over Bangladesh ?"
See 29.8.1973 The New York Times Newspaper which reported that 90000 pakistani soldiers surrendered in 1971 before Indian Army
Facts are many but the truth is one, Bangladesh hasn't forgotten 16th December 1971.🇧🇩
But why do Bangladeshi praise Pakistanis in 2024
We are sorry 😢
Now there is our pro Pakistani government in Bangladesh
We will take back East Pakistan
Majority viewer are from Indian .because Indian love knowledge ❤
1972 Bharat learned lesson. Not to help. Not to trust 🧐
I am from india . I was in school that time . I remember many social organisation here were collecting garments ,food grains from people for Bangladeshi Refugees . They were appealing people to donate some moneyy ,food grains and winter garments for these refugees here in india .
Not only did Pakistan learn a thing, But even Bangladesh did not learn as well, Both are two sides of the same coin

Two Nation Theory-1: India Pakistan Division.
Two Nation Theory-2: Pakistan Bangladesh Separation.
Lesson - Don't mock India and don't underestimate it.
Now some Bangladeshi people are saying that India was the reason behind separation of east and west Pakistan
Shakil Ch.sb presentation of facts & their articulation has been most impressive and cogent.
Dr. Parvez Hoosbbhoy is the conscience of Pakistan. Such an eloquent and well thinking person is rare to find in Pakistan or even in the world.
All discussions on this subject in Pakistan is peppered with "if, but, however".
If people of Gaza are fighting against mighty army of Israel for years , Ukraine fights Russia, why did General Niazi did not fight. He could have defended Dhaka for months. It seems the no 1 army had no interest in maintaining integrity of Pakistan. 😮
Excellent and honest discussion. This is HOPE for Pakistan.
Good Discussion
Shakil Chaudhry makes the best Analysis. Great Work.
Free Balochistan!
Free Kashmir
Very good program.

1) the sound quality could be improved
2) it could be a bit more structured

Bangladesh 🇧🇩 will face same thing that Pakistan 🇵🇰 has faced in 1971 . People should respect their father and grandfather else partition ho jata hai
the drama was master minded by a super power , it is said that even suggestion to surrender was also requested to that power

The status of borders of Bangladesh might have been changed in favour of India during and immediately after 1971 war.
Change kaha aaya na online dekhte hai aapk program naa hi aapka hall full hai ese topic pe
I am from India and a great admirer of Prof Hoodboy. A physicist of excellence and great thinker and human being. Salute to you Sir.
Why should we not hold the man ruling the country in 1971 General Yahya as the main culprit? He had the option to not listen to Bhutto and transfer power to the election winner Sheikh Mujib.

I think some words in HIndi/Urdu should be pronounced as za as required in writing.

Urdu was not language of Pakistan and Bengali was language of 56% peoples of pakistan. Jinnah could not speak Urdu. English was state language during independence of pakistan. English may be accepted as state language. Urdu in west Pakistan and bengali in east Pakistan may be accepted as provincial govt language. In India no language problem created after independence of India. Jinnah was a lawyer not political leader. No qualificatin of administration. Sohrawardi was elected prime minister of united Bengal before independence of India and Pakistan.
Only discussion no solution for the problems of Pakistan & Bangladesh.
Bangladesh today is like a multiole cross between Pakistan, Syria, and Iraq, Somalia, and Afghanistan.
روزنامہ جنگ میں چھپے رئیس امروہوی کا ایک قطعہ مُجھے آج بھی یاد ہے۔ (بنگلہ دیش کا ہو طوُفان یا ہو رَن کَچھ کا میدان ۔ ۔ ۔ ۔ ۔ ۔ ۔ جب بھی قوم پہ آفت آئی کام آیا ہے ٹِکّا خان)
Watching from India.
Hood ji, har vaār Punjābīāṅ nū blame karde ne. Je Punjābī powerful si, ta Punjābī nū national language banā lainde, Urdu nā ban di Pakistan dī national language.
Mukti bahini ko India ne support agarche kiya bhi to ye sochiye ki aaplogon ne kitni jadatiyan kari unpe. Unkil aurato ke jariye jawano ki jinsi jaroorat mitana shuru kari. Ye sab hone deta India ek bade padosi ke haisiyst se. Aap apneaapko India ke jagah par rekh kar soche Prof Hoodboy.
Urdu language was main reason of establishment of east Pakistan.
Pakistan is a failed experiment and sadly Pakistan hasn’t learnt a bit from its past history and misadventures. It’s still continuing with different models of permutations and combinations. Its Army establishment, its political dispensation and bureaucrats ruling Pakistan over different periods in the last 77 years since its creation, have collectively failed to bring about any discipline and order and peace.

two nation theory still holds as west Bengal is not integrated with BD...very confused discussion
بنگلہ دیش سے معافی؟ مزید معافیاں بردہلیز منتظر۔
The orange jacket lady- why would someone reject her to come and present something professional?
Pakistani cricketers and singers are always coming and performing.
I think she misunderstood 😮😮😮 something
Ayub khan and Punjabi fouji govt is responsible for separation of east pakistan not India.India could not capture or separate east pakistan in war of 1965.
At present what is happening in Pakistan? Imran is most popular but Shahbaz is ruling.
Bangladesh is now fatherless.
The only reason tens of thousands of civilians and soldiers died was Indian aggression. If some country must apologize, it is India.
کسی ایک نے بھی توجہ نہیں دلائی کہ گذشتہ ایک سال میں ائین کی شدید بے حرمتی ہو رہی ہے اور انسانی حقوق کی شدید خلاف ورزی ہو رہی ہے۔ تب شیخ مجیب جیل میں تھا ۔ اج عمران جیل میں ہے۔۔ کسی ایک نے بھی ہمت نہ کی کہ لمحہ موجود کا سچ بھی بول سکیں۔ تب بھی ہم خاموش تھے اور اج بھی۔۔۔
Why democracy and peace established in pakistan after 1971? Pakistan saved after operation searchlight why wsr started with India and brave pak army surrendered so easily in short time war of 13 days.why stopped war in west Pakistan border?
Mr sajjad is not a realistic person in connection to Pakistan's history. Just aaen baaen shaaen .
When you hold a discussion on separation of two wings of pakistan in 71 it is imperative that you must also have a representation from Bangladesh also. Except for Dr. Hood the MIT scholar none of the participants appears to be in an age bracket who were mature enough to discern the propaganda fed by pakistan press in then west Pakistan to distinguish between truth and false Hood. Many an opinions offered by the participants still offer the same bias and lack of information that prevailed at that time. So many facts are still precieved differently by even the intelligencia even now fifty years after breakup of pakistan.
All the erudite scholars on the debate agreed irrespective of agreeing on the number of people killed and Women raped the incidents did happen and whatever the estimated number 56000 killed and 200,000 + Women agree these incidents were indeed deplorable.
Hindu women especially eere the targets of Pakisthani Punjabi army men and some Mullahs in west Pakisthsn even declared Hindu women are war booty and rapes are legitamate.
When we agree killings were bad, rapes were bad, looking from another angle should atleast West Pakisthanis appreciate General Niazi by surrendering he prevented massacre of Pak 93000 soldiers by Mukti Bahini and also rape of Pakisthani officers wives and daughters who were in Bangladesh at that time ??
One could argue perpetrators does not deserve mercy but even a perpetrator wants personal self protection snd safety of his women.
Where is this meeting which city of pakistan
Do you know Lahore resulation 1940? As per Lahore resulation east bengal may be separated. But Pakistan govt started genocide and destruction of east pakistan.
