He is still buried in East Pakistan I see
The Battle of Hilli
one of the glorious battles of the war
the Force did not surrender till 18 December

 

[Hakikat ve Hikmet]

800 Pak men against 20K strong IA and 30K strong Mukti Bahini!!!! 3 tanks and 3 field guns vs 250 tanks and 250 artillery pieces!!!! And, that too with no air or logistics support whatsoever!!! And, fighting in a hostile foreign environment after 9 months of relentless COIN ops!!!! No wonder they teach it at the military academies....

If Pak can have 10 such units along her border I think she remains safe forever....

As if it's the re-enactment of the glorious defense of Chankkale (Gallipoli) by the Ottoman soldiers, against the overwhelming enemy forces, for one more time!!! In the words of Mehmet Akif in his Chanakkale Shiiri:

Sen ki, a´sâra gömülsen taşacaksın...Heyhât
Sana gelmez bu ufuklar, seni almaz bu cihât

Even if you were buried into centuries, you would pour out
These horizons can't come to you, you won't be devoured by this Jihat

Ey şehid oğlu şehid, isteme benden makber
Sana âğûşunu açmış duruyor Peygamber

Don't want a grave from me Oh martyr son of a martyr​

Waiting for you with open arms is the MESSENGER*

*PBUH

Muhammad Akram, not that you need it as your 'maqam' in jannat is beyond reality, but you will never be forgotten. Allah bless you.
