When the British Raj collapsed in the subcontinent in 1947, two countries came into existence one was India and another one was Pakistan. Pakistan became an independent country on August 14, 1947, with Pakistan 14 and India. The main reason for the subcontinent's behavior was two national ideologies - Muslim and non-Muslim. before 16 December 1971 Bangladesh was a part of Pakistan At the time of independence, Pakistan was divided into two parts, East Pakistan - today Bangladesh, and the other West Pakistan.
Both parts of Pakistan were
approximately 1600 km away from each other. Between the two parts, India is a
country, that is, it will travel from one part to another or cross through
India. If conditions or relations with India were to deteriorate, then the
Indian Ocean (Indian Ocean) would have to go to East Pakistan and Sri Lanka.
The subversion of the subcontinent occurred under two national ideologies,
namely, the areas where most Muslims were included in the Muslim country of
Pakistan, and the majority of non-Muslims, including in India. Political which
includes provincial autonomy, representation, electoral system, and 6 points of
Mujib ur Rahman. While the economic development policy in economic conditions,
the income of West and East Pakistan, the place of economic institutions. Even
more important are the culture and language, military operations, Soviet Union
(Russia), and India's interventions that gave birth to Bangladesh.
Mohammad Ali Jinnah became the
first governor-general after the independence of Pakistan on 14 august 1947.
and addressed the students at the annual convention at Dhaka University and
said that the national language of our country Pakistan would be Urdu only. The
Quaid-e-Azam's speech was considered a threat to the Bengalis against their
culture and Bengali language, his words disturbing the young Bengali
generation, which led to the birth of a cultural element in their hearts.
Keeping in mind the reason for representation, there was a lot of difference
between the two parts of this new country. There was a population-based
representation in the Bengal Legislative Assembly. However, West Pakistan
favored representation on the basis of equality.
the representation of (Bengalis),
one of the reasons for the separation also included some jobs. For example, the
Central Cabinet, which was set up on August 15, 1947, comprises only one of its
seven members, Fazel Rahman, The number of Bengalis in government-owned jobs
was less than 100%, less than 20%. For example; Only 20% of East Pakistan's
jobs in civil services were missed, while about 80% of West Pakistan's. Thus in
1970, Pakistan had 20 federal secretaries in Pakistan, of which only 3 belonged
to East Pakistan and the remaining 17 belonged to West Pakistan. Even more
so 34 senior officers in the Pakistan
Army, of which only one belonged to East Pakistan.
The location of Bangladesh and
Pakistan's separation from Pakistan was a very important factor. West Pakistan
was about 1600 km away from East Pakistan ie both these parts of the country
large part of the land of India between Pakistan and Bangladesh. For a
long-distance, the Pakistani government has failed to play an effective role.
On the basis of cultural heritage, the culture and language of the two parts
were quite different. For example, East Bengal was predominantly Bengali and
their language was Bengali. When Quaid-e-Azam addressed Urdu as a national
language, Bengali youths reacted strongly to the decision.
After independence, the capital
city of Pakistan was made Karachi. East Pakistan was a big supporter of
provincial sovereignty and they were demanded that we not be represented on the
basis of our population while we supporting the central government of Pakistan.
The breakup of Pakistan came at a time when the Awami Party faced a majority in the 1970 elections.
The Awami Party of Bengal won 167 out of 169 votes not only in Bengal but the
majority in the whole country. In comparison, the Pakistan People's Party got
only 86 votes out of 144. Despite the success of the Awami Party leader Sheikh
Mujib ur Rahman despite not getting the
government, the Bengalis formed a special kind of reaction against Pakistan and
India took advantage of it and became involved in a war with Pakistan. Divided
into two parts in 1971, Bengal (East Pakistan) became an independent country
called Bangladesh on the world map.
