MCQ practice · SSC Bangladesh and Global Studies Board questions · Chapter 2: The Independence of Bangladesh
How was the final victory of Bangladesh in the liberation war hastened?
Think it through first, then pick an option.
- a By forming the India-Bangladesh joint force
- b By gaining UN membership
- c By India's recognition
- d By forming the Muktibahini in Bangladesh
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: a By forming the India-Bangladesh joint force
The book says the fierce attack of the joint command of the Muktibahini and the Indian force led the Pakistani army to surrender.
Why the other options are wrong
- b By gaining UN membership: The UN remained a silent spectator; victory was hastened by the attack of the joint command.
- c By India's recognition: India recognised Bangladesh on 6 December, but the surrender came through the joint command's attack.
- d By forming the Muktibahini in Bangladesh: The Muktibahini had been formed earlier; the final victory was hastened by the joint command with India.
