[mukto-mona] Re: Mujib's 7 March 1971 speech: "Was it Declaration of Independence or Bluff?"

<< ১৯৭০ এর যে সাধারণ নির্বাচন হ'ল সমগ্র পাকিস্তানে, যা যুক্ত-পাকিস্তানের প্রথম ও শেষ অবাধ, নিরপেক্ষ ও নিয়মানুগ নির্বাচন তাও ছিল পূর্ব পাকিস্তানের জনতার অবিশ্রান্ত গণ-আন্দোলনের ফসল। এই কষ্টলব্ধ নির্বাচনের ফলাফল অনুযায়ী গণতান্ত্রিক স্বাধিকার পাওয়ার কথা, শুধু বাংলারই নয়, গোটা পাকিস্তানের মানুষের।

গণতন্ত্রের প্রতিশ্রুতির নগ্ন নির্লজ্জ বরখেলাপ ঘটল ২৫ শে মার্চ ১৯৭১ এ নৃশংস সামরিক বাহিনীর অঘোষিত আক্রমনে। 

তার আগে,  ৭ই মার্চের জন-সমাবেশে নির্বাচন-বিজয়ী শেখ মুজিবকে যে বলতে হয়েছিল, "এবারের সংগ্রাম মুক্তির সংগ্রাম, এবারের সংগ্রাম স্বাধীনতার সংগ্রাম.........." সেখানে আমাদের অনেকের কানে ঐ "এবারের" শব্দটিতে ছিল বেদনার্ত অতীতের স্মৃতিব্যাকুল দ্যোতনা। অনেকবার তো হল, আর কত? 

২৬ শে মার্চে বঙ্গবন্ধুর স্বাধীনতার ঘোষনা তাই এমনই স্বতঃস্ফুর্ত! >>

[Excerpt from a longer article written in 2009 ]

 <<   When everything was ready for the first sitting of the elected Constituent Assembly in Dhaka the sudden postponement of the sitting though was unexpected, the seasoned politician like Mujib rightly apprehended that the conspirators were now hyper active not to transfer power to Mujib and Awami League. As soon as the announcement was made on 1 March the people of Bengal erupted like a volcano and right from that day the control of the civilian government was taken over by Bangabandhu. Virtually that was the end of united Pakistan.

In his speech that late afternoon Mujib narrated the background of the plight of the people of East Bengal since the day Pakistan was created, how they were deceived and deprived and how they were discriminated by the rulers for the last twenty three years, the continuous conspiracies hatched against them whenever there was a possibility of forming a government in the centre and how the wealth and resources of East Bengal was plundered for the benefit of West Pakistan. >>

[Mujib's 7 March 1971 speech: "Was it Declaration of Independence or Bluff?" asks the author of the article below, Ahmad U Shihab. And he answers the question with reliable evidence. The author shows that Mujib wanted to keep Pakistan united, he declined to join "songram" (struggle), and he collaborated with Yahia's military. Please see the excellent article below:]
