Vijay Diwas 2021

Subject – IR

Context – To commemorate its victory over Pakistan during the 1971 war, India celebrates Vijay Diwas on December 16 every year as a tribute to the success of the Indian army.

Concept –

  • To commemorate its victory over Pakistan during the 1971 war, India celebrates Vijay Diwas on December 16 every year as a tribute to the success of the Indian army. This war led to the creation of Bangladesh. Today, marks fifty years of the war.

The history

  • After India’s independence, Pakistan was formed in two territories, east and west Pakistan.
  • The Bengalis in the east were highly discriminated and their Bengali language wasn’t accepted. There were economic disparities between the two regions, and the power helmed by west Pakistan had created tensions.
  • In 1970, the Awami League led by Sheikh Mujibur Rahman won the elections wherein the Pakistan People’s Party neglected to hand over the power.
  • Later in mid 1971, Bangladesh declared independence from Pakistan. As violence started erupting, many refugees began entering India.
  • The war between India and Pakistan started when Pakistan launched air strikes on 11 Indian air bases. In retaliation to this attack, former Indian Prime Minister Indira Gandhi ordered the Indian army to launch war against Pakistan, which India won after fighting for 13 days, resulting in the birth of Bangladesh.
  • Pakistan surrendered to the Indian army finally and this day is also observed as ‘BijoyDibos’ in Bangladesh.
