1971 Population Movements And Rise Of The New State
1971 history related studies are mostly engrossed with patriotism rather than socio-political analysis. As a result, the narrative is largely about the suffering of the people as victims - cause- and the valorous acts – effects of the freedom fighters as liberators. Attempts to identify the various elements which actually determined the nature and formation of the state are less.

Their Final Act
A nation sans intellectuals is a nation without its voice to express hopes and aspirations of the people.

But they made a blunder in interpreting the sentiment of the people here.

Tragedy In November 1975...
Independent Bangladesh took a major blow in the early hours of 3 November 1975 when the soldiers who had gunned down Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman and his family nearly three months earlier swooped on the four national leaders in the putatively secure confines of prison. These four men --- Syed Nazrul Islam, Tajuddin Ahmed, M. Mansoor Ali, A.H.M. Kamruzzaman --- had played pivotal roles in the formation of the Mujibnagar government-in-exile in 1971 and had decisively steered the nation to victory over Pakistan at the end of the year. In a free Bangladesh, they would form the core of the government under the leadership of the Father of the Nation.

Myanmar's Rohingya Genocide ICC referral: Need Of The Hour
As hopes for an early, voluntary, safe and dignified repatriation of the Rohingya refugees to a protected homeland in Arakan fade, as Myanmar authorities persist in a “systematic,” lower-intensity persecution and violence in northern Arakan, and as new batches of expelled Rohingyas continue to cross the border into Bangladesh, the demand for bringing the perpetrators of the heinous crime to justice, including State Counsellor Aung San Suu Kyi and her military cohorts, gains traction.
