Agartala Conspiracy confession, what does it mean for our history

kalu_miah · Jul 20, 2012

Bengali nationalists such as Sarat Chandra Bose, Huseyn Shaheed Suhrawardy, Kiran Shankar Roy, Abul Hashim, Satya Ranjan Bakshi and Mohammad Ali Chaudhury sought to counter partition proposals with the demand for a united and independent state of Bengal. Suhrawardy and Bose sought the formation of a coalition government between Bengali Congress and the Bengal Provincial Muslim League. Proponents of the plan urged the masses to reject communal divisions and uphold the vision of a united Bengal. In a press conference held in Delhi on April 27, 1947 Suhrawardy presented his plan for a united and independent Bengal and Abul Hashim issued a similar statement in Calcutta on April 29. Such a unifying movement was started by Rabindranath Tagore and others in 1905 during British Bengal administrative division(Bongovongo) or Division of United Bengal. But unfortunately Suhrawardy's plan gained no popularity, although among-st the people who wanted unity of east and west Bengal in 1905.

After partition however Suhrawardy gave up on this idea since it was rejected by people. He had been a loyal son of the country and had great accomplishment as a leader:
- solidified Pak-China and Pak-US ties
- moved towards free-market capitalism away from communism although he had a soft corner for socialism
- initiated plan for nuclear power generation as well as weapons in the future

But he had another side:

Leonard Mosley, in his book 'The last days of the British Raj' writes [on page 26]: "Mr. Suhrawardy was a party 'boss' of the type who believes that no politician need ever be out of office once his strong-arm squads have gained control of the polling booths; that no minister should ever suffer financially by being in public life; that no relative or political cohort should ever go unrewarded. He loved money, champagne, Polish blondes and dancing the tango in nightclubs, and he was reputed to have made a fortune during the war. He loved Calcutta, including its fi-lthy, festering slums, and it was from the noisome alleyways of Howrah that he picked the goondas who accompanied him everywhere as bodyguards."

The above shows Suhrawardy's human side, he was no saint. But what piqued my interest about the above is this question: is it possible that Mujib was one of these goondas?

What I can see is that Suhrawardy was a person of integrity and foresight, and he was from a distinguished family. He tried the idea of United Bengal, as it was worth a try, but after partition, he dropped that idea, as anyone with a minimum knowledge of geopolitics would know that East Pakistan by itself would be a much more vulnerable entity with India on 3 sides. But if young Mujib was one of his goondas (I don't know for sure) then this could have given him the dream that one day he might be able to make East Pakistan secede from West Pakistan and rule over it as a benevolent king/dictator/dear-leader/bongo-bandhu?

Because what I see from Mujib's life history is that this person is the root of the seed of rebellion. This rebellion was made without considering the long term future of his people, who had taken this obsolete idea (United Independent Bengal) from Suhrawardy and turned it into his modified dream of truncated independent kingdom of East Bengal and proceeded to ally with an enemy state and people (Hindu's) to engineer a secession to make his dream come true:
Sheikh Mujibur Rahman - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Swadhin Bangal Biplobi Parishad - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Swadhin Bangal Biplobi Parishad was an underground student political group organized in 1961 by Mujibur Rahman, the founder of Bangladesh. The group worked to oppose the military rule of Ayub Khan, as well as for greater autonomy and the independence of East Pakistan as "Bangladesh."

Again I see that demagogues and rabble rousers become leaders with little idea of geopolitics and lead nations and people to a direction with disastrous consequences for the people they lead, blind leading the blind. If Mujib was really knowledgeable about geopolitics, instead of working with Indian intelligence, he would work with ISI and Chinese intelligence to help Phizo and Laldenga to gain independence for North East states. Current Awami League rule is nothing but a continuation of this long tradition that started with Mujib:

- cooperation with India to control Bangladesh
- serve Indian national interest while ruling Bangladesh

Coming to the Agartala Conspiracy case:
Agartala Conspiracy Case - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Forum

People of then East Pakistan thought this was a case to frame popular leader Mujib to taint his reputation. But that impression was a lie, as we can see that Indian intelligence influenced media have established this myth, while in reality the opposite was true, as was admitted by Shawkat Ali:
Col. Shawkat Ali - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Although it was largely thought that the Case was only to frame Sheikh Mujib and others,[2] in 2010, and on the anniversary of the withdrawal of the Case on 22 February 2011, Shawkat Ali confessed to the Parliament at a point of order that the charges read out to them were accurate, stating that they formed a Shangram Parishad under Sheikh Mujib for the sedition and secession of East Pakistan.[3][4]

Funny thing is these shameless idiots are now trying to establish a treason case as some kind of heroic act. My question is why admit it in 2010 (or is it 2011), why not in 1968, when it mattered? Or why not in 1972? Why the silence for 40 long years?

35 'accused' honoured

The 35 "accused" in 'Agartala Conspiracy Case' were honoured yesterday in recognition of their contribution to set the country free from the Pakistani occupational forces.

Textbook%20'incorrectly'%20describes%20Agartala%20Case:%20Shawkat]Textbook 'incorrectly' describes Agartala Case: Shawkat

"Agartala case was not related to the six-point movement . .. had it been so the accused like ours -- the military and civil government officials -- would not have the scope to get involved, though we had wholehearted support for it," said Shawkat who was a captain of Pakistan army at that time and was arrested to face the trial.

Earlier, speaking at the discussion organised by Oitihashik Agartala Mamla Mulyayan Parishad, the deputy speaker urged the textbook board authorities to evaluate equally bullet-wounded flight sergeant Fazlul Haque along with martyred flight sergeant Zahirul Haque.

Note the attempt to establish a treason case as a "patriotic" case and include it in textbooks for 9th and 10th grade to brainwash new generation of Bangladeshi's.

What the above does not tell you is that 6 point "autonomy" movement was the deceptive facade that RAW/IB has designed together with these traitors so they could proceed with their plan for secession. They got caught red-handed by ISI only after some of them raided some armory against advice given by Indian intelligence (IB/RAW):
RAW says Mujib was not their agent :: Weekly Blitz

K. Sankaran Nair in a tape recorded interview revealed and admitted to me that Sheikh Mujibur Rahman never worked for Intelligence Bureau of India and he was falsely implicated by the Pakistan military rulers. Sankaran Nair as Col. Menon met four East Pakistani citizens on the border of India and Pakistan near Agartala for operational planning in Eat Pakistan. He was assisted by Indian Naval officers and a Bihari IPS officer. He wanted to induce some new strategies for separatist activities. Prior to that he gave them financial aid and supplied arms to fight Pakistan army. Subsequently, these people wanted to raid the armoury in East Pakistan which was resisted by Sankaran Nair. He warned them not to raid the armoury and suggested that more arms would be floated to them through river on barges by the Indian intelligence which could be collected at suitable points for insurgency against the Pakistanis. These East Pakistani citizens ignored his suggestion and along with other colleagues raided the armoury which resulted in the arrest of 34 persons and the case as Agartala Conspiracy case was registered in a military court in Dhaka. An Indian diplomat P. N. Ojha, who was IB operative in Dhaka at that time, was declare Persona Non Grata [PNG] by the Pakistan Govt. and deported to India for his involvement in this case, which was a fact.

Of course Mujib never "worked" and got paid from Indian intelligence. His vision was that he was king of East Bengal, who was getting India's help to liberate his land. But note the lie in green by Sankaran Nair, as Shawkat Ali has already confessed about the truth of the Agartala case.

Questions:

1. Sure there was economic deprivation, but were the West Pakistani's killing us since 1950's?
2. Who gave the right to Mujib to make this decision on behalf of East Pakistan to secede?
2. Who started the killing, were it not the planned saboteurs of Indian trained Awami agents who started the killings of Biharis months before Operation Searchlight?
3. Who gave the right to Mujib to seek help and become the partner of our 800 year old enemy entity, Hindu's of South Asia?
4. Is it not possible that instead of seeking help from an enemy that hates us Muslims to the core, that we could confront and raise this issue with our "oppressor" the West Pakistani's who were fellow Muslims after all?
5. If some of our "leaders" did not conspire with our enemy and committed treason (partner with an enemy state to plan for secession) and if we tried to solve these issues honestly, frankly and in a straight forward way, do we think we would still be treated the way we were treated (operation searchlight)?

If we could peacefully resolve the differences between the two wings of Pakistan and achieve autonomy or amicable separation, then:

1. hundreds of thousands of people (Hindu's, Bengali Muslims, non-Bengali Muslims) would not be killed and become victims of rape and other atrocities
2. we could still have a better relationship between the 2nd and 3rd largest Muslim countries of the world
3. India would not gloat of their victory against West Pakistan and gifting us our "independence"
4. both parts would not become weaker, as both could share the nuclear power
5. India would not dare to proceed with its water terrorism, border violence and Shanti Bahini insurgency against Bangladesh
6. last but not least North East today may have become partly independent if not completely

Now can we say that India found a "useful idiot" who had a bunch of other idiot followers to achieve India's goal to break Pakistan, the largest Muslim country in the world, and thus reduce strategic threats for Indian nation? In the process, hundreds of thousands of people got killed in the civil war and a great rift was created among two of the largest Muslim communities of the world.

Now can we say that Awami League should never be trusted again by people of Bangladesh and it should be banned and abolished, so the joint team of Awami League and Indian intelligence cannot hurt the national interest of Bangladesh any further?

This is how a sane Muslim, a human being will look at this unfortunate event of 1971. My heart cries when I hear about breaking into half of Pakistan, although I wasn't present back then, but like you I've concerns about my history.

Anyways, coming to the topic, I would say, the seeds of hatred were planted by the Indians, and tbh, we helped them grow, I'm talking about both the wings, not just West or East Pakistan, but both. The issues you raised are very valid. There was a psy war going on at time and it's still there, Millions killed by hands of Pakistan Army, millions raped, I mean, really? Have anyone really actually looked into what really happened?

Surely, there were crimes committed on Pakistan's side but what happened with Biharis is also a reality, Mukti Bahini, 250k+ terrorists invaded our country and then some traitors felt proud by getting help from India, I still don't believe how we actually came to that day, we ourselves invited Allah's wrath upon us.

I'm in no way defending Pakistan's actions, but Bangladesh was never the solutions, I respect my Bangladeshi brothers, their nationality, their patriotism but I don't support how they made their country.

We all lost something at the end, not because someone else jumped into our affairs and incited hatred, but because we ourselves brought it upon us.

I hope in future, we can be unified again, not just Bangladesh but every Muslim country in this world, because that's where lies our strength.

I would request all to ignore Indian trolls in this thread, unless some Indian makes any valid point that deserves a reply.

Who are you to decide who is who in Bd-Pak affair? Awara kuttay ki tarah q bak ta hai humara gali mey. Mujib daughter la-Hasina already admit about traitor Mujib affiliation with agartala conspiracy. Mujib was traitor and it was Pakistan goverment failure for not hanging him on site.

Some Army officer storm in Mujib house and killed him along with his family members. It's unfortunate that they could not finish all otherwise Bd would have been a lot more peaceful and traitors free nation.

Mujib was aware of the Arartola conspiracy. From the prism of Pakistan he was a traitor. From the prism of Bangladesh it was necessary to become a sovereign entity in our own rights.

Mujib was one of sowrwarddis enforcer and his protege.

It really is not a big deal. Pakistan is no more and history need only be from the Bangladeshi perspective. I for one do not believe Pakistan would have survived, mujib was the right man at the right time and was able to exploit the situation. It is interesting to note that both mujib and Bhutto had Hindu mothers, both their loyalty to the Muslim cause can be called to question.

Anyway I would suggest forget the past. Move forward and develop our respective countries.

rubyjackass · Jul 20, 2012

OMG!! Kalu miah's has his own world order. It is not a big deal to create his own history.

I have been looking at life history of both Suhrawardy and Mujib to see where the seed of rebellion came from. The idea of United Bengal came from Suhrawardy:

And he quotes wikipedia :hitwall:

which has no citations for the said quotes.
Anyway nobody wanted their provinces to divide in 1947. Suhrawady did not want Bengal partition just as the Punjab leaguers did not want their province to divide. And FYI in 1905 Suhrawady and all the young generation of independence movement like Subhash Chandra Bose were bachchas. 1905 Bengal movement was a completely different phenomenon.In 1947 it became clear to everyone that Bengal will have to divide and cannot be united. People like Suhrawady asked for united Bengal so that Pakistan can keep the whole of Bengal, not because they wanted united Bengal at the cost of Pakistan.

And then Kalu miah quotes the wiki again saying Suhrawady had goons as bodyguards. Then takes a leap of faith and logic to believe that Mujib was one of the goons. You know what? I was one of the bodyguards too in my earlier life. And then he theorizes Mujib was dreaming about Bangladesh all along. So once again Kalu miah writes down history - a tale of how he wishes things to be. Let us offer him a carton of cleanex for personal use.

Daily dose of Bangladeshi repentance of existence of their country.

Lament Bangladeshis, lament hard, for you have sinned.

Pakistanisage · Jul 20, 2012

I think we need to to closer ties and cooperation between Pakistan and Bangladesh because we still have a behemoth enemy named India.

Rhino · Jul 20, 2012

Reading bangladeshi threads and posts i can assume that they are very confused people...their threads and posts are full of confusions...

kumarkumar1867 · Jul 20, 2012

Great Kalu-Miah,

How beautifully you avoided linguistic struggle between bengalis & west pakistanis.You also didnt mentioned anywhere how Mujib won elections with majority but was not allowed to take power by west pakistani lobby.
Not to forget great famine of 1970 when hundreds of families were dying & west pakistanis who took colonizing benefits let their bengali contrymen die without any helping hand.

RAW/IB/India/Hindu all you can see is this.You cant see the pain of bengalis dying in famines, nor can you see gross neglect of development in east pakistan for 2 decades after independence, you will never see how sindhis, balochis , muhajirs are treated by Punjabis.

And you should bow & thank to Mujib, founder of Bangladesh who may be a Goonda as per your definition for liberating you from experiences your ancestors went through.

There is definitely role of India in Bangladesh creation but its not what as large as you claim here. Creation of Bangladesh helped India's stability. Even if Pakistan or Bangladesh was at India's place I dont think they would have acted differently, especially Pakistan, which always try to destabilize India by hook or crook.

But be it any country or state, if educated people like you are sorry citizen for its existence, soverignity or freedom then my friend no wonder why puppets (as you call them) are ruling your country.

PS : Please dont bring Islam to this 1971 case, neither Pakistan nor Bangladesh have any significant contribution to Islam/Muslims so stop whinning about it. Creation of Bangladesh or Division of Pakistan is a political case it has nothing to do with religion or anything. 1000s of Buhari muslims who were willing to leave Bangladesh were not accepted back by Pakistan also Bangladesh refused to shelter few hundred Rohignyas who were also muslim, so both Pakistanis & Bengalis must stop whinning about Muslims or Islam. Religion is just a mask people use to make things look different.

India is Bangladesh's Enemy?? and who says this.... You, Kalu Miah & few PDF members??
We have no issues with Bangladesh except Illegal Immigration cases.

Welcome to Reality, here things are exactly opposite than you & few members dream about. :woot:

in any other defence forum,your Ip would be banned,just for supporting killing of your own Prime minister.but...its.. :pdf:

extremist views are good,but it should have a limit. :tdown:

@kalu Miah...

i'm respecting your hard work,but it didn't make sense.while you omitted a lot of important facts like the reason of 1971 war,genocides of innocent people,vasha andolon,you also twisted few words like Suhrawardy wanted an united bengal when everybody knows whats his plan was...India fought against british empire for an United India,not for Muslim Motherland.but when Musilm League saw an oppertunity,they jumped for it.read this,the day Kolkata bleed due to plan of Muslim League to divide India...

Direct Action Day - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Kolkata Riot is a major incident why Congress rejected United Bengal plan.because no way they wanted to loose a hindu dominated area when they couldn't keep muslim dominated portions of bengal or else another riot would be created.so you can easily guess what would be fate of an "United Bengal"..

You should join Politics......
