780 বাংলাদেশের স্বাধীনতা যুদ্ধ দলিলপত্রঃ তৃতীয় পত্র শিরোনাম সূত্র তারিখ নয়াদিল্লীস্থ বাংলাদেশ মিশন প্রধানের এশিয়ান রেকর্ডার অক্টোবর ৮ সেপ্টেম্বর, বক্তব্য- ৮ই সেপ্টেম্বর Տ-Գ, ՏՏԳՏ ՏԵԳ Տ Mr. K. M. Shahabuddin's Claim: Mr. K.M. Shahabuddin, head of the Bangladesh Mission in New Delhi, claimed on September 8 that "nine-tenths of Bangladesh territory is in our control." He told a Press club luncheon meeting: "Even Dacca, considered a safer place for Islamabad is no longer that safe for West Pakistan. We have achieved a lot of success in our struggle." His colleague, Mr. Amjadul Haque, warned West Pakistan that any harm done to Sheikh Mujibur Rahman would constitute a threat to peace as he did not belong to Bangladesh alone, but to the whole world. Mr. Shahabuddin said that the success of the freedom fighters had forced the Pakistan Army personnel to remain within the bounds of cantonments. "The control of the Pakistan Army is only up to cantonments." Mr. Haque re-iterated the four-point proposal as put forward by the Bangladesh Prime Minister and the acting President as precondition to a political settlement of the Bangladesh issue. They are: recognition of Bangladesh by West Pakistan, unconditional release of Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, withdrawal of the invading army and compensation for all the losses suffered by the people at the hands of the Pakistan Army. Both Mr. Shahabuddin and Mr. Haque declared that "no longer are we unarmed, untrained, and unsupported" in the struggle against West Pakistan.
