Bangladesh won its independence after nine months of
bloody struggle with the Pakistani military with crucial
Indian support. The Liberation struggle sparked the Indo-Pak
war on December 3, 1971, and ended with the surrender of the
Pakistani military to the Indian Army.

The minister said Bangladesh plans to invite 30 Indian
1971 veterans to join "independence day celebrations" on March
26.
Ten Indian war veterans, led by Lt. Gen (retd) JFR
Jacob, the Chief of Staff of the Indian Army’s Eastern Command
during the 1971 campaign, joined Bangladesh’s Independence Day
celebrations two years ago for the first time at the
invitation of former Bangladesh Army chief General Moeen U
Ahmed. PTI AR
