To . 345 বাংলাদেশের স্বাধীনতা যুদ্ধ দলিল : চতুর্থ খন্ড Mr. Hussain Ali Bangladesh Mission, 9, Circus Avenue, Calcutta-17. Will send press clippings. Already sent by air mail releases etc. To boost up morale of fighters and people, statements are issued and press conferences are held. To organise and equip youths for offensive fighting, necessary steps taken. An appeal has already been issued to persons and organizations abroad for funds and materials-A/C No. in foreign banks are in formed as and when opened. All Heads of States including Indonesia have been approached formally. Collaborators in and outside Bangladesh are being warned occasionally. Efforts are made for arms and ammunitions.
Publicity campaign needs to be geared up. Silence of leaders causes alarm & disappointment. There are reports of disunity among the parties. Unity should be maintained at any-cost. Indonesian presses do not now give much coverage. Local Pakistanis (Punjabis) have purchased most of them at huge money. Govt. attitude is not helpful to Bangladesh. Some lies are being circulated in the name of Ulamas by Radio Pakistan. Indonesia does not seem to help Pakistan materially. After the inquiry report on hijacking was published, Pakistan Ambassador was ridiculed by Foreign Minister. It is known secretly. Public opinion here is that Pakistan unity is broken forever. The war is to continue a few weeks more for Bengali survival. Direct approach to this Govt. may ease the herded attitude of non-interference. Please consider to do it soon, if possible. Some prominent foreign journals are carrying encouraging articles by their correspondents. Some of them even traced the history and gave details of economic disparities which finally resulted to the present event. People are convinced and have sympathy.
