Liberation War of Bangladesh in 1971: A Historical Study

Abstract

In this research paper, an attempt has been made to look into the Liberation War of 1971. Is the country ready to negotiate with its history? In this Paper, I argue that the alternative versions of the 1971 liberation war, which contests the ‘official narrative, has to be debated; the 1971 liberation war and its ‘official narrative is a cause to alienation among various groups and rise of militancy in Bangladesh and; India and Pakistan, even they want, cannot de-link themselves from that war.
