”Could India have remained a mute spectator to thousands and thousands of Bangladeshi sisters being disrobed by Pakistani soldiers? We had to intervene,” Indian Army commander Lieutenant General Manoj Kumar Katiyar told India Today TV, recalling the atrocities committed by Islamabad during the 1971 war, which he called “worse than the Holocaust.”In modern history replete with crusades and jihads, Western Command chief Lieutenant General Manoj Kumar Katiyar on Friday said that India had always fought dharamyudh, a concept he said was as ancient as “our civilisation.”advertisementBuilding on the concept of dharamyudh, Lieutenant General Katiyar listed all of India’s wars with Pakistan from 1948 onwards, pointing out that India fought a “righteous cause in a righteous manner,” saving the Kashmiri people, who were subjected to rape, murder, and loot.Lieutenant General Katiyar pointed out that it was Pakistani soldiers, masquerading as raiders in 1948, who were adharmis.However, he goes on to call the 1971 war an “apt example of dharamyudh.””What was happening in Bangladesh is we seem to have forgotten. Thousands and thousands of Bangladeshis were killed,” Lieutenant General Katiyar said India Today TV.Calling it a “genocide” and “even worse than the Holocaust,” Lieutenant General Katiyar asked, “The world was a silent spectator. Nobody was responding to it. Could we have remained silent to such barbaric happenings in our neighbourhood?””If you remain silent in face of crime, in face of evil, your conscience has to pay a price.” he added.He called it a “very just war” and a “perfect act” of liberating East Pakistan.”In 1971, we captured 93,000 prisoners. We fought in a righteous manner and treated them well. We provided all facilities in accordance with rules and regulations. The Simla Agreement is the most liberal peace agreement. All this was in the quest for peace,” he said.”The 1971 war started with a just cause and ended in a just manner,” he added.With Bangladesh now cosying up to Pakistan, Lieutenant General Katiyar said that the country is undergoing difficult times and expressed confidence of Bangladeshi Army doing “the right job.”However, Lieutenant General Katiyar issued a word of caution, saying, “If we don’t learn from history, then it teaches us lessons – often at a very, very great cost.”Lieutenant General Katiyar accepted that despite fighting several dharamyudhs with Pakistan, their army has still not learnt its lessons, as it is deeply embedded in the country’s politics and is often driven by its own interests and economic considerations.Citing another example of the Pakistan Army’s “adharma,” Lieutenant General Katiyar said that during the Kargil war, the Pakistan Army disowned its own soldiers and refused to accept their bodies.advertisement”So, I think there can’t be anything worse than betraying your own dead.
