No. PIBP/64., Dated the 29"November, 1971 From:- Mr. A. H. Khan, Secretary to the Govt. of Bangladesh, Ministry of Press, Information, Broadcasting & Publicity. My dear Samad, As you are aware, the Pakistanis are trying to tell the world that India has sent its army inside Bangladesh and that it is they who are fighting the main battles inside Bangladesh. The purpose of this propaganda line is twofold-first, to mislead the world by trying to divert the world opinion from the real issue of Bangladesh to that of IndoPak confrontation and secondly, to inimize the achievements of the Mukti Bahini. India has refuted this allegation resolutely. However, I feel there is need that the Government of Bangladesh should categorically deny the involvements of the Indian Army in the battles which are being waged by the Mukti Bahini on all fronts inside Bangladesh. Since this is a very urgent matter, may 1 suggest that you may give your view immediately so that we may counteract the Pakistani propaganda through our Radio. Yours sincerely, (A. H. Khan) Mr. A. Samad, Defense Secretary, Govt. of Bangladesh.
