    'Insurgents using Bangladesh to spread militancy in India': Tripura's CM

    I would like to know where he had gotten his information from. Most of tripura borders bengali regions, which has no jungle and is littered with paddy fields. If there was a camp there, authorities would have been notified immediately The south east borders tribal regions and has lush jungles...

    Bangladesh Air Force

    Looks doesnt really matter what matters is their capability. I know these aircrafts are 3rd gen but its the best we could buy with our limited budget. Buying the same aircraft will save us from spending too much on adapting to a new platform of interceptor aircrafts. Anyway dont be...

    Bangladesh Air Force

    It is rather the function of the aircraft. F7 is our interceptors to intercept enemy planes. If i am not wrong india, pakistan and china also uses a lot of interceptors. Our interceptors are aging and are limited in number, so bought a few more. Since our Military is defence based, we have...

    I think most of the supplies for the army came by ships before 1971. We didnt really have much of an army in East pakistan, flying them would be costly. But to be honest i dont really know.

    Again i repeat, I agree with the statement that more people would have been dead and it would have taken a longer time(but not as exaggerated as you wrote). Look at my other posts, I never disagreed with this statement

    Hmm...would you consider ammunition, guns, fighter planes etc flown to east pakistan as a threat to india, if it flew over indian land, given the scenario that India pakistan were enemies but india is neutral about what was happening in east pakistan?

    The combat were seen AFTER india declared war on pakistan. Furthermore, these engagements are not blockades by any means. These engagement were military combats, not blockades The blockade occurred until 2nd december. After that it was full on war.

    I did not deny that a naval blockade is not an act of war. The only thing i claimed is that naval blockade did not see any active military combat. Thus no direct military intervention(no exchange of bullets or shells)

    Mukti Bahini must be given due credit for liberating Bangladesh: Gen Jacob

    I did give india credit for the first part. As for the second part, you are talking about operation python, which happened on 8-9 december(India declared war on 3rd dec). I wouldnt really call that a blockade. Anyway my point is that(leaving aside humanities), we could have won without direct...

    It was just a naval blockade to prevent supplies, however it did not result in a battle. Same logic applies for US and USSR, they both send vessels but did not battle, thus they were termed as supporters not fighters. Same thing goes for the indian blockade

    Mukti Bahini must be given due credit for liberating Bangladesh: Gen Jacob

    However, you must remember these certain things -Pakistani army was stranded in Bangladesh. They were cut off from the west. Not much reinforcements -Supplies, ammunition, etc delivered to pakistan were decreasing due to bangladesh being surrounded by indian land and indian naval...

    Pirates in Indian Ocean bane for Indian, Bangladeshi fisherman

    The dense sunderbans, the international boundary and guerilla like tactics allows their existence to this very day. The dense forest provides a good cover and the international boundary allows the pirates to evade capture. Pirates from both sides attack and kill regardless of nationality. I...

    Mukti Bahini must be given due credit for liberating Bangladesh: Gen Jacob

    Let me answer that. If India hadnt helped Bangladesh indirectly (provide food, training, refuge, weapons, intelligence etc to the bangladeshis) we would have lost. However, even if india did not intervene militarily, we would have still won as the number of pakistani troops were getting...
