and East Pakistan now known as Bangladesh that lasted for roughly nine months

taking in millions of refugees, it was economical to go to war against
Pakistan. As early as 28 April 1971, the Indian Cabinet had asked General

and Pakistan added to India’s decision to intervene in Pakistan’s civil war.
Resultantly, the Indian government decided to support the creation of a
separate state for ethnic Bengalis by supporting the Mukti Bahini.
