On 16th December 1971, the chief of the Pakistani forces with 93,000 soldiers surrendered unconditionally to the allied forces consisting of the Indian Army and Mukti Bahini in Dhaka. Mukti Bahini refers to the armed organizations that fought against the Pakistan Army during the Bangladesh Liberation War. It was a guerrilla resistance movement. Bangladesh was born on this day.
