Long before the formation of Bangladesh, former Pakistan President Ayub Khan's Information Secretary Altaf Gauhar had published a book titled 'Ayub Khan: The First 10 Years of Military Rule'. This book tells that in December 1967, Pakistan's first military ruler Field Marshal Ayub Khan was about to visit a paper mill in Chandergona area of East Pakistan. Before the visit could take place, it was suddenly cancelled. News came that a conspiracy had been hatched to bomb Ayub Khan's plane. Ayub Khan became angry at this.
After this, large scale arrests were made. In this, the connection of Tripura of India also came to light. Later, the situation became so uncontrollable that Bangladesh became a separate country in 1971. Today, in the same Bangladesh, students are on the streets against reservation in jobs for freedom fighters and their families. Bangladesh is also a hub of higher education, where students from many countries of the world including India go to study medicine. Meanwhile, the Ministry of External Affairs has said that due to the protests, more than 6700 Indian students have returned to India from Bangladesh.
Did Pakistani officials meet Indian officials in Agartala?
On 6 January 1968, 28 people were arrested. These included top officials of the Pakistani Navy. Lieutenant Commander Muazzam Hussain, three top civil service officers Ruhul Quddus, Fazlul Rahman and Shamsur Rahman were accused of being in contact with PN Ojha, First Secretary of the Indian High Commission in Dhaka. They were also accused of meeting two Indian officials in Agartala, Tripura. Lieutenant General Gul Hassan, who was the Commander-in-Chief of Pakistan at the time, has claimed in his autobiography that India had provided arms to these accused in addition to financial help. General Gul Hassan has written that according to the plan, these people were asked to capture some areas of East Pakistan. If these people had succeeded in doing so, the independence of Bangladesh would have been declared immediately and India would have also given them recognition. However, these claims could not be confirmed later.
