Indian Army looting money from Bangladeshis in 1971 war (video)

[Peaceful Civilian]

This is misleading title, where are they looting? Can't even find one second video of looting, these are search operations.

 

[Banglar Bir]

That was after Pakistan Army surrendered

There were confiscating items from suspected Razakars, not checking anything. Razakars were allied with Pakistani forces, so naturally they were apprehended and checked by our forces. Why are you guys claiming that they were "looting" you? You forgot the sacrifices Indian Army made for your independence from genocidal Pakistan Army?

NOW,WHAT OTHER EXPLANATION WILL YOU INDIANS COME UP WITH,NEXT? CHECKING THEIR D...KS, BY OPENING THEIR LUNGIS FOR CONFISCATING ITEM?

WHAT SACRIFICES AND FOR WHOM, IT WAS MEANT ONLY TO DISMEMBER PAKISTAN, THAT WAS YOUR LONG AWAITED DREAM, FINALLY CAME TRUE.

WE WOULD HAVE WON OUR LIBERATION ON OUR OWN, YOUR MATERIAL ASSISTANCE HAS BEEN APPRECIATED, TIME AND AGAIN,NOW WHAT ELSE?

DID YOU REALLY FIGHT? YOUR GOAL WAS TO ENGAGE,CONTAIN THE PAK ARMY FROM RE GROUPING IN DHAKA BOWL, BY PASSING THE PAKISTANI TROOPS AND RUSH TOWARDS DHAKA, OF COURSE WITH OUR HELP.

KINDLY NOTE, THE INDIAN ARMY'S LOGISTICAL GROUP WAS FIRST TO ARRIVE IN DHAKA,FROM HALUAGHAT BORDER OF MYMENSINGH, THAT TO WITH THE ACTIVE HELP FROM THE KADERIA BAHAHI,NOT YOUR MAIN BODY.

YOUR PUPPET HASINA HAS GIVEN YOU EVERYTHING THAT YOU ALL WANTED,DESPITE THE MILLIONS OF DOLLARS WORTH OF ITEMS YOUR GLORIOUS ARMY LOOTED FROM BANGLADESH.

According to the report by Kamal Hossain, the lootings by Indian Army in Bangladesh after the 1971 war amounted to at least $2 billion in then prices... The lootings included machineries of mills and factories, agricultural yields and others...

All war is waged for profit..it would be stupid to think Indians came out of pure humanitarian aid to rescue of East Pakistan..

Good work by army.

At least we got something useful from these ungrateful punks.

Today 20 million ungrateful thug Bangladeshis illegals are a liability.

Minerals are temporary resources.Real resource are fertile land which can be settled forever and cultivate to provide food,clothing,housing etc.Although Pakistan is six times larger than Bangladesh territorially, BD's productive capacity is neck to neck with Pakistan. 1 hectare of fertile farm land is more worth than 100 hectares of deserts or icy inhospitable mountainous land.

Hardly "neck to neck".

Pakistan (1000 ha) Agricultural Area

Pakistan (2014) Arable Land + others = 36 252
Pakistan population = 190 million

per capita (1000 ha) = 190.8

Bangladesh (1000 ha) Agricultural Area

Bangladesh (2014) Arable Land + others = 9 099
Bangladesh population = 156 million

per capita (1000 ha) = 58.3

This tittle is misleading. Indian army is investigating Razakars, not 'farmers'.

 

[GR!FF!N]

Some cute propaganda for those who doesn't understand Bengali.

Indian Soldiers were checking and they arrested 3-4 "Razkars" - You can see one soldier actual was slapping those guys.And then during check another soldier got cash.The guy wearing lungi was saying "Babu Poysa",that means "Sir,I've money here".The soldier said "Poysa tomar r thaka nai",means "You can't keep money now",which was standard procedure whenever they arrest any prisoner...

Anyway,some nice try.I guess the video is from "1971 er muktiyudhdher Itihas".So sad that lowlives are using videos from 1971's documentary for propaganda purpose.

By the way,I rofled by seeing the scene where a soldier was beating a guy with a shovel.

By that logic, Bangladesh's refusal to join "mother" India invalidated the "One Nation Theory".

Refusal?!
When was the offer to join ever made?! When was it India's intention to integrate BD into the Indian fold?!

All war is waged for profit..it would be stupid to think Indians came out of pure humanitarian aid to rescue of East Pakistan..

For a change some practicality...

No war in history has been void of rape, loot, pillage and destruction. anyone claiming otherwise is spewing pure crap.

Its an irony that the purpose of going to war is to make peace, but peace is rarely the outcome.

So India invaded East Pakistan for pillage..not for humanitarian aid of 10M refugee..character exposed..

I would put it as "self interest".
Separating the east wing of Pakistan being the goal or self interest, the humanitarian crisis being the catalyst/excuse.
And pillage and loot being a sad reality of war. Collateral damage if you will.

"Character exposed"?? Care to explain?

You have no part of kashmir . Only the valley is called kashmir(jannat ul firdaus )

OK. Then stop claiming the part that we control since it is not Kashmir as per you.

 

[Kandari-Hushiyaar]

Arey hamein to apno ne loota, Gairon me kahan dum tha humari kashti wahan doobi Jahaan Paani kam tha!!

 

[Sliver]

bottom line.. both Pak and India pillaged BD.. right?

 

[Areesh]

Why stop claiming ? It is a part of J&k state. You need to understand the difference between Kashmir and 'Jammu and Kashmir' state

Then Pakistan has more than 35% of Kashmir with more to come.

 

[Areesh]

You have some serious comprehension problems sonny

I understand you guys well. That is enough.
