"Even people with P.H.Ds acts like uneducated fools when we talk about these NATIONAL leaders of Bangladesh."
Large chunks of our most educated classes are blindly partisan with an inability to think independently for themselves. They make up for their own lack of character by leaning on the character of Mujib or Zia. Many think they are patriots because they talk a lot about the martyrs of 1971 - but they keep quiet when their own party commits crime. As if our martyrs died only for the right of their biggest fans to be hypocrites.
There are many highly educated and rich people who act like 'boro luk' but who are basically hypocrital 'choto luk'. It's called progress - Bangladesh style.

According to "Nixon Papers" he forced Indian government to take their armed personnel back to India (There were reports of massive looting by Indian Army from our bases). If he was anyway tied to RAW, I do not think he would have done that. Personally I think he loved his people and wanted to do something for them with his ability. His administrative and academic skills were not up to the task taken by himself but his passion and love was there. He was a human being and made some mistakes and we should honor his contributions and forgive him for his mistakes.

Like Mujib he made some mistakes but his contributions should be honored by ALL of us. Unfortunately as a nation we are not civilized enough to even recognize genuine contributions by these great men. Even people with P.H.Ds acts like uneducated fools when we talk about these NATIONAL leaders of Bangladesh.

The report in the Blitz shows that India wanted to divide Pakistan and it sent money and weapons to East Pakistan before 1971 war of independence, and that was certainly not for philanthropic reasons.

> According to the report in the Blitz, "He (Yadav) also endorsed the fact that prior to the war of independence of Bangladesh, Indian intelligence were regularly meeting Pakistani nationals, giving them money and arms to continue insurgency inside East Pakistan." After this assertion, all the other narratives are just details. It can be inferred from the report that many of Mujib's associates took money ("bags full of cash") and arms from India. Many reports show that Mujib was surrounded by RAW's operatives.

> Before 1947, Mujib was actively involved in Pakistan movement. There is no credible proof that he ever wanted anything more than a confederation of Pakistan i.e., there is no proof that he ever wanted independence of Bangladesh. He did not know about the independence of Bangladesh, before his release from Pakistan prison in January, 1972. When Bhashani wanted independence of East Pakistan in 1957, Suhrawardi and Mujib opposed it, and Bhashani was compelled to form NAP. But after Suhrawardi's death, Mujib declared 6-points in 1966, which was at most a demand for confederation of Pakistan. On the night of 25 March 1971, Mujib did not go to India, while most of his close associates did. He willingly went to Pakistan prison, thought to be under arrangements worked out by Kamal Hossain (who also went to Pakistan, not arrested, reportedly in the same plane with Mujib) and the US ambassador in Pakistan. Mujib's family was protected by the army in Dhanmondi in 1971 and good financial support paid to the family by the Yahya govt. However, it was Kissinger who instigated Yahya for the most brutal crack down. Later on it was Kissinger again who was behind Mujib's assassination in 1975. (Hasina accepted 1998 UNESCO prize from Kissinger, knowing full well that Kissinger was behind Mujib's assassination!!)

> It was thought that it was through US arrangements that Mujib was released from Pakistan prison in January 1972. Mujib never claimed that he declared independence. He never visited Mujib Nagar. He asked Indian army to be taken back from Bangladesh, which is thought to be a reflection of US intention. He removed Tajuddin, thought to be pro-India, from the cabinet and made Mushtaq, pro-US and anti-India, his right hand person. Mujib invited Bhutto and also joined the Islamic conference. He declared general amnesty to the war criminals.
>
> So, why did he create Rakkhi Bahini? Well, Rakkhi Bahini was created by India, with Indian finance, training, arms and Indian top command. Mujib agreed, as by that time the army was reduced almost to prisoners in the cantonment, without any powers, under Indian arrangements. Soon Rakkhi Bahini was made all powerful. And why did Mujib agree to BKSAL? The answer is, in order to survive. Mujib regime killed 30 to 50 thousand patriots, while 3 to 5 hundred-thousand people perished in the man-made famine of 1974 during his regime. Whatever manoeuvres Mujib did, his regime was totally controlled by India and it was a thugs' rule all through with a tyranny unseen since then.
