		By then Tikka Khan had already launched the crackdown of 25 March for which he has been known to Bengalis as the ‘butcher of Bengal’ ever since.

		The Yahya Khan regime in 1971 had done much the same thing as it went on an unprecedented crime spree in the hope of getting away with murder.
		Dictator Ayub Khan helped the community with special dispensations like soft loans for houses and preferential recruitment for employment in railways, jute mills etc. The West Pakistan based ruling class used them as proxies to rule East Pakistan.
		It is interesting that the Yahya Khan regime took a leaf out of the Nazi regime in Hitler's Germany to identify those that must be eliminated for the "final solution." A religious ritual became the basis of separating out the victims.

		But General Tikka Khan did not want to revisit the tragedy because it would have exposed the GHQ’s inept conduct of war and Tikka Khan’s own role as Army Reserve Commander.
		General Yahya Khan, the main character of the debacle was given two pensions and all other perks and benefits, which were due to an ex-president and ex-commander – in – chief Lt. Gen. Gul Hassan Khan suceeded Yahya as COAS and after retirement was made Ambassador in Austria where he married an Austrian woman.
		In one of his better known verses, the Late Sahir Ludhianvi had opined that the tears that are apparently shed in sympathy with others' bereavement or a common bereavement are, infact, often subconsciously motivated by an intimately personal despair lodged deep inside the individual mind.
