A first hand eye witness reporting from the then East Pakistan by a Pakistani journalist very soon after the military action started. His news reports were widely condemned in Pakistan then as prejudiced and slurs were cast on his loyalty to Pakistan being a Goanese Christian. So much so that he left Pakistan . And wrote the account of his visit to the then East Pakistan in a book form. Considered a one side account in Pakistan and widely publicised and published in lndia, this book became a sort of official textbook of the international campaign for creation of Bangladesh . It has a valid historical value today to understand the institutionalised hatred of Pakistan and Pakistanis amongst the new generation of Bangladesh now in power.
