16th of December
In all the talk of government formation,we have forgotten an important day like 16th December. It was on this day that we gave a crushing defeat to Pakistan and created a new nation of Bangladesh.
We created a world record of taking surrender of 93000 prisoner of war. For once we took offensive stand and even superpowers with all their nuclear weapons couldn't change the outcome.
What we won on the battlefield was lost on the table. We signed a useless Shimla agreement not even asking for PoK or war damages. Swarna Singh has commented that at the summit, Indira was behaving as if she was the loser while Bhutto was behaving like a winner. A long period of slavery has broken our very confidence that we can WIN.
May this day remind us that WE CAN.
Bharat mata ki jai!!!!!
