Loss of East Pakistan was certainly painful event
Causes were simple
Flood and Cyclones Impacted Development on Equal Pace with Western Front
As for the Argument , was it good for both regions or not well I am certain if proper DAM was constructed to divert the water from floods on East side thing could have improved however as you know War of 65 and 71 impacted financial side for Pakistan , we are still struggling to overcome energy shortages
In long term I do see ties to normalize however Bangladesh will have to revist their historic account and properly mention
1- Impact of Cyclone and Climate natural disaster on their zone (10 year history) which kept their economic development slow
2- Recognition of fact that Pakistan of 65-71 was a poor country and resources were not abundant
3- Admit that even after the seperate state formation the financial status of many local folks did not "DRASTICALLY" changed
4- In last years Pakistani Businessmen had attempted to move their textile industry to East Pakistan to help local folks with jobs
Post 71 as flood situations improved marginally some financial growth took place which was natural
This was really the major issue in East Pakistan
The only reson West Pakistan may have appeared slightly more advance vs East was due to less frequent flooding and Cyclones as in East Pakistan
The present age Bangladesh , grew at just at same pace as it would have grown with Pakistan , when you remove impact of floods and cyclones you see the growth would be generally almost equal as all financial indicators show
Sonner or later educated Banglesh residents will realize various hidden part of history

- Flood & Cyclones that impacted East Pakistan during 60s-70s , it was a 10 year period with flooding on regular yearly cycles.
- The Flooding in one region vs other impacted how the two Territories developed one on West and East, the western front was protected by such floods
- Also the source of Flood overflow was from India that impacted East Pakistan, and certainly there was a malicious intent
- Example of one such massive Cyclone https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1970_Bhola_cyclone just before war

- More flood water released from India = More suffering in East Pakistan = Poverty, to Omit this from Historic account I think is serious mistake

- 10 year cycle of Cyclones really what crippled eastern front and excessive water release from India into East Pakistan (Present day Bangladesh)
