Imran’s comment on Mujib, Yahya sparks debate

Imran's comment on Mujib, Yahya sparks debate
The Federal Investigation Agency of Pakistan has summoned PTI leaders Gohar and Omar Ayub and party spokesperson Raoof Hasan regarding the 'misuse' of incarcerated PTI founder Imran Khan's X account for disseminating incendiary content against state institutions, it emerged on Saturday.
On May 26, Imran's official account shared a video along with a quote attributed to him: 'Every Pakistani should study the Hamoodur Rahman Commission Report and get to know who was the true traitor, General Yahya Khan or Sheikh Mujibur Rahman.'
The video argued that the former military dictator was the one actually responsible for the country's breakup, referring to alleged atrocities committed by the Pakistani military during the civil war, reports Dawn.
The video also interspersed images of the current civilian and military leadership, alleging that they stole the party's mandate in the general elections.
The post generated intense blowback and controversy, particularly from the government ranks. An investigation has been launched by the Federal Investigation Agency's Cyber Wing into the post.
After initially disassociating itself from the post, the PTI on Friday also 'owned' the post and demanded exactly what was initially called for, that people read the Hamoodur Rehman Commission report and the military should work within its constitutional limits.
In a statement issued after its core committee meeting, the party claimed that the FIA was hell-bent on making another case against Imran.
An FIA team visited Adiala Jail on Friday in a bid to quiz the PTI founder regarding the post. However, sources said Imran had refused to meet the investigators, saying he would only meet them in the presence of his lawyer.
Pakistan defence minister Khawaja Asif Friday asked Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf founder Imran Khan to keep his 'mouth shut' if he wants political tension in the country to lessen.
'I think founder PTI wants to increase tension,' said the minister in an exclusive interview with Geo News in the wake of the controversial social media post shared on Khan's official X — formerly Twitter — account.
Khawaja Asif said he has a different stand on the history of the Bangladeshi politician and the tragedy of East Pakistan.
'By exaggerating the Khan tragedy of East Pakistan today, you want to increase the tension,' he said, slamming and his party.
The minister maintained that whether it was in politics or sports, the former premier had stung everyone who had done good to him.

Wow - this is supposed to stir controversy for sure. Implicating General Yahya ultimately points to blaming the Pakistani Military Establishment for the loss of East Pakistan.
One thing for certain, Yahya Khan wasn't fond of Bengalis and Bengalis weren't that fond of him in return. This unfortunate circumstance led to many rash decisions taken during martial law rule in East Pakistan with predictable results. Some do agree that the decision of finalizing the "Udhar tum - Idhar hum" philosophy in letting go of East Pakistan lay finally on Bhutto, Yahya and others in the Martial Law administration.
Here is a US Directorate of Intelligence and Research note sent to Washington about Pakistan Army officers including Yahya Khan who was already appointed Full General and of course, CMLA.
However making this political capital is rather pointless now - we should all work toward bettering the lives of people in both countries by increasing trade, opening up markets and increasing people-to-people cultural exchanges. Our economies are largely complementary in many ways and making an FTA for starters will only increase the wealth on both sides.
We in Bangladesh should work more intensely to reduce the barriers of open trade with Pakistan, more inline with what we do with India. It remains to be seen, but this is bound to happen with or without Hasina as leader.

One thing most people overlook is the backdrop of the Cold War during the East Pakistan crisis, which intensified following the 1965 war with India. Ultimately, two superpowers- the USA and the USSR, played vital strategic roles in the decision-making process through their regional pawns, Bhutto ( USSR), Yahya (USA/USSR) and his most generals(USA), Indira(USSR), and Mujib(USSR), who didn't have as much to say as the general public believed. The USA wanted to prevent another communist state in Pakistan, and the USSR wanted to spread communism to Pakistan and Afghanistan, and if successful, then India in the end. This is how an informed analyst would see those events as opposed to what a rudimentary newspaper reader usually does.

Pakistan High Commissioner to Bangladesh Syed Ahmed Maroof called on Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir at the party chairperson's political office at Gulshan on Friday.
Later, BNP standing committee member Amir Khasru Mahmud Chowdhury briefed the media about the meeting.
"We have had a meeting with the Pakistan high commissioner. We discussed multiple bilateral issues ranging from trade and business over the changed scenario," he said.
"We discussed ways to further our bilateral relations by showing mutual respect and also focused on mutual cooperation among South Asian nations in the coming days," continued Mr Khasru.
Bilateral trade and business run on the basis of comparative advantages. Bangladesh economy lagged behind others for years in terms of comparative advantages, according to him.
"... There will be a level-playing field in Bangladesh," asserted Mr Khasru, adding: "We'll cooperate with each other based on respective comparative advantages between the two countries and the entire region."
"South Asia is a least integrated region (in the world) as we are lagging behind other regional blocs in terms of mutual cooperation..."
Mr Khasru said, "BNP's foreign policy is friendship with all. Based on it, we talked about moving together by cooperating with each other in all areas."
The BNP believes people will benefit from an economic level-playing field that was absent in the past (during the tenure of the Hasina administration), according to him.
"We believe we'll be able to move forward bilaterally and regionally (in South Asia) through mutual cooperation and levelling the field for all."
Meanwhile, the BNP has taken preparations for a five-day programme marking its 46th founding anniversary in festive mood.
The party will hold discussions in all cities and districts on August 31.
It will hoist party and national flags at offices countrywide early morning, and place wreaths and offer doa at the grave of BNP founder and former president Ziaur Rahman on September 01.
Rallies will be held at all districts and upazilas on September 02. Fish fries will be released at metropolitan cities, districts, upazilas and unions on September 03. Saplings will be planted across the country on September 04.
The associate bodies of the nationalist party will also hold discussions celebrating its birthday.
