At the rally, which was attended by a few hundred people, the leaders condemned the massacre in Bangladesh staged by the Pakistan Army on March 25, 1971.

The Pakistan Army turned entire the Bangladesh into a killing field with it’s indiscriminate killing, torture of innocent people and unprecedented scale of rapes for nine months.

That was the kickoff of one of the biggest genocides, led by General Yahya Khan of Pakistan, in the world history causing the biggest ever humanitarian catastrophe after World War II.

They killed 30 lakh people and violated two lakh women and children. Freedom fighters and researchers claim that still, many mass graves in the district and upazila levels remain unidentified.

  1. “The Pakistan Army turned entire the Bangladesh into a killing field with it’s indiscriminate killing, torture of innocent people and unprecedented scale of rapes for nine months.”

    Just a reminder that about 80% of victims, by some estimates, were Hindus. I’m not sure calling it “indiscriminate killing…” is warranted in this case. I urge everyone to read Senator Robert Kennedy’s and U.S. Diplomat Archer Blood’s statements on this genocide abd which gives legitimacy to most of the victims being Hindus. I am not making light of the Muslim victims, but to clarify that the overwhelming majority of victims were Hindus, at the hands of the Pakistan army or their conspirators in Jamaat-e-Islaami.
