Creation of Pakistan would have happened any way due to the British politics in the region. During the liberation war of Bangladesh, Lord Mountbatten observed, "Had we predicted the rise of China as a regional power, we would have left India undivided." According to Wali Khan, Pakistan was made to create an Islamic belt around the Soviet Union. The basic problem of the non-Muslims is to make the land called Bangladesh safe for them. They should sacrifice the last drop of their blood to achieve the goal.

Let us do some serious intellectual discussions on this subject.The creation of Pakistan was a disaster for the non-Muslims (and their descendants) of the land that became that country in 1947. However, it was good for the land that became India in 1947. In fact, on an overall equation, the descendants of the non-Muslims of the pre-1947 India probably have done better by keeping most of the Islamic hate-mongers at the two ends, as opposed to everywhere. Many people give Nehru the credit for that. But I would not call that too foresighted. Without removing the excessive religiosity and hatred among the Muslims, the subcontinent cannot be peaceful in the long run. After all, the borders are porous enough for people like Bachhu Razakar to flee Bangladesh, go through India and then take shelter in Pakistan. Even with their minority status now, the Muslim hate-mongers are already creating a lot of discontent in many places in India today.The bottom line is that segregation of hateful minds is not a long-term solution, removing hatred is.Sukhamaya Bain======================================

The quote is somewhat dramatized but it is not too far away from the ground reality. Minorities will be forced to leave the country as they have already done in Pakistan. The choice would be to submit to the will of Islam or cross the border. With Hepazoti blessing, Bangladesh will try the Pakistani path to take people for another ride for the last time. I bet some of the Awamis would not mind to join the gang if that serves their interests. Is Member Das wrong? I am not so sure.-SD"All great truths begin as blasphemies." GBS

When Raja Gopalacharya was informed on the 16th of Dec. 1971 of the conquest of Dacca by the allied forces, his reaction was, "Her father Nehru created one Pakistan, she created two" He was right. People like Sumon Ahmed prove the validity of comment by Raja Gopalacharya.
