    The military Role of "East Pakistan"-Bangladesh in 1965 against India

    Yes, 1971 win was effortless for IA only because there were lacs of efforts and sacrifices from our side. Usually, Indians like to forget this factor. So, if India is so sure about its strength, it should wage and win another effortless war against Pakistan. I think, my comment is fair enough.
