Golden Jubilee Of The Indian Army Victory Of The 1971 War :: Dec 3rd 1971 to Dec 17th 1971

It was on December 17th 1971, when the PROCLAMATION DEED was signed by General Niazi, handing  the COPY with his ENDORSEMENT to CHIEF-OF-THE-INDIAN EASTERN COMMAND that we SURRENDER and ACCEPT a DEFEAT and to END the war after his counterpart at Islamabad or Karachi or Lahore then had asked him to ACCEPT the DEFEAT to the Indian Army and surrender the entire ARM FORCE of Pakistan numbering about 93,000 to the Indian Army under Mr Jagjit Singh Arora. However the Pakistani Army had completely accepted the DEFEAT on December 16th 1971 , and the WAR then came to an end ,though the papers were signed on December 17th about the same and the matter is  described as  above.

This is and this will be to many who were not born then. This will be to many who might have forgotten the moment and the date if they are not an avid follower of the history but this is something which is  and which cannot be forgotten by those who rewrite the maps of the World as the war at the end gave a birth to a new nation and the map of the WORLD was redrawn as Indian had created Bangladesh then and Bangladesh them imbibed ISLAM to become a new Islamic country and a new nation  .

This war was fought in a different manner. It was that the war had TWO Army fighting united with each other as ONE unit and they had the Pakistani Army to fight on and upon. The Primary Army was the MUKTI-VAHINI which means the CARRIER of INDEPENDENCE as that is how it is translated from Bengali to English and it had them as the UPFRONT SURGING UNIT in the war and then it had the IndianArmy who were the facilitators as it facilitated the war to crush the impact of the opponent which was the Pakistani Army which had clustered at Dhaka then and at all the place at Bangladesh.

This war and it’s tale has been covered by me in my article that I have written on Albert Ekka here on my December 2019 write up on Albest Ekka which one can read that on my blog page.That actually describes everything about the war. Hence written once I would not like to lean on the same description but what makes it really describable is the manner that the war was fought where the homework for launching the attack was explained to the Mukti – Vahini and everyday training were parted and imparted to them and after they opened the  assault using the Indian Arms and the tactics of the Indian Army, the Army would read the entire proceeding and the gamuit of the launch that the Mukti Vahini would involve themselves doing that as an exercise and would finally gve it a finishing touch to make all the amends.

Mukti Vahini were the front line assaulters  and the indian Army was the back end smashing office.  It was avery new kind of an war along with a very new kind of a tactics that was used to win that war and at last the war ended on December 17th 1971.

The Chief Of The eastern Command, Mr Jagjit Singh Arora of the Indian Army laid down an memorandum to the Chief Of The Pakistani Army at Bangladesh, Mr Niazi that either you fight till the nod end  to see yourself and your Army totally whitewashed or you are given a SECOND-LIFE to surrender and accept the end of the war as a DEFEAT for Pakistan and your Army..

The Pakistani Chief at Dhaka then evaluated and after making the Pakistani Authorities at Lahore and Islamabad to accept the HARSH REALITY, succeeded in making them to understand the fact that the acceptance of the defeat was the best that suited Pakistan at that stage , and an accord was signed by the Pakistani Chief of Army, Mr Niazi to surrender and bring about an end to the war. That was the DEFEAT that Pakistan had to taste and that was the start of the life of a new nation by the name of BANGLADESH that was formed.

I do not want to go over to the KNITTY-GRITTY of the war at all as I have described it in my article on Albert Ekka here in my blog page which I have pasted it on the month of December last year .One can fall onto it for a careful reading or a peruse.

I have on this blog web page , during December on December 16th 2019, have written this article Albert Ekka: A SOLDIER MUSICIAN who COMPOSED the SONG of “ VICTORY ” INDIA Dec 17th ,1971.

 However this date today has completed it’s 49th years in succession and had or has put it’s feet on the FIRST DAY of it’s 50TH year to commemorate that as the FIRST DAY of it’s GOLDEN JUBILEE and those who have lived by that many a days would remember it as- ::

A “ DAY “ TO REMEMBER in the annals of the Indian Army and India.

The HEROES definitely were the likes of Albert Ekka, Mr Nirmaljit Sekhon, Mr Arun Khetrapal to name some with HIGHEST HONOUR ,  Mr Maneckshaw, and OF COURSE the ENTIRE unit of Indian Defense which can fully walk with it’s head high and up after this incident.

I have put down the pictures of Mr Albert Ekka  and Mr Abdul Hamid,  both,  Lance Naik and both  winner of  PARAM VIR CHAKRA in my write up here  on the blog page, here, and I do not repeat that .However for the one’s who of this generation would like to know about the other two ,I’m putting their pictures here for them to see and know who they were and what did they do in the 1971 war against the Pakistani who attacked India first and were on the rampage before INDIA DOUSED them off. It was the NINETEEN YEARS of age, Mr Arun Khetrapal who like Abdul Hammed in 1965, took on the Pakistani tanks and completely MINCED them before he laid his life breathing his last.

December 16th, A " GREAT " DAY FOR THE COUNTRY TO CELEBRATE 

Well , that is it

Regards and Thanks

    1. We who were alive still could not control us first when we were told that the entire night has been blackened because of the haunting Sabre Jet which could hit the civilians at any time, and then we could not control our feelings when it was announced on the A.I.R that India has won the batle by forcing Pakistan to enter into cease-fire.Regards Shyamal Bhattacharjee
