519 বাংলাদেশের স্বাধীনতা যুদ্ধ দলিল : চতুর্থ খন্ড শিরোনাম সূত্র তারিখ কাছে প্রদত্ত একটি প্রতিবেদন Տի, ԳՖ The newly formed Consultative Committee consisting of leaders of major political parties has been a step forward for conducting deliberation struggle as a national war. Awami League, having the overwhelming support of the people and being the supreme vanguard of the people's movement in East Bengal, did not have to go for a Committee like this. But it was considered necessary for the greater interest of the people. The immediate effect of forming this Consultative Committee has been. (a) a psychological impact to boost the morale of our people inside Bangladesh; (b) a psychological impact upon the people and Governments of the world to show that the liberation war is conducted by all the major forces of the population; (c) It will have an impact on Yahya Khan's Government and create a psychological pressure on them to accept the world pressure sooner. It appears that Indian Government has played a role in bringing about this Consultative Committee. The apparent reasons are: (a) this would contain the left political forces in West Bengal and will restrain them from doing anything that will jeopardize the interest and policy of the Central Government of India; (b) the pressure of the Russian Government to include NAP (Muzaffar group) and the pro-Moscow Communist Party into the front; (c) Moulana Bashani has no party as such and is fully committed now to Awami League and its leadership. Therefore, by including his name the overall impression both from national and international point of view has been improved psychologically. A Section of Awami League considers that this will gradually take the independence movement away from its leadership and push it into the hands of the more leftist elements. But the operative part, of this Consultative Committee is limited to : (a) that the Committee would only be available to the Government of Bangladesh for consultation on matters relating to the, liberation struggle; (b)The Prime Minister would convene and conduct meetings of the Committee. This means that in reality the Consultative Committee would be nothing but a mere Advisory Board completely under the control of the Bangladesh Government. They will be consulted only when the Prime Minister would deem it necessary. In one way this has been a triumph for Awami League. In one hand it has extended its arms to embrace other political forces and in other hand it retains the complete political leadership and initiative. क्लन्नब्रह्मज्ञङ्गजज्ञत्वम्झ्त्वाच्ल्नजनकाङ्गनाझनज़ळन्कजल्लझञ
