After two weeks, the provisional government was constituted. The most fundamental point would be ‘liberation’ or the right of any nation or people to self-determination as recognized by international law.Īfter the March 25 midnight, that is, in the early hours of March 26, Bangladesh practically declared independence. But I hope that no one would contest some very basic points. Recently a debate has cropped up over the finer points of the question what the spirit of liberation war really means.
