brS○ বাংরাদেশের স্বাধীনতা যুদ্ধ দলিলপত্রঃ দ্বাদশ খন্ড support to the freedom struggle there. Even we have gone to other countries of the world with begging bowls for solving the refugee problem. If the Government of India is really interested to solve the refugee problem, it must give immediate recognition to the Bangladesh Government as it will inspire the refugees to go back to their homes with confidence. As the freedom struggle in Bangladesh will take a new turn, the refugees, if they go back to their homes, will come forward to participate in the liberation struggle. So there is no alternative way to solve the problems of Bangladesh refugees excepting this one of course, the Government may try to solve the refugees problem otherwise. It is the opinion of many people that 55 to 65 lakhs refugees have already come to India. In order to solve the refugee problem completely, the only way. I feel, is to recognize the provisional Government of Bangladesh immediately. We have got blood relationship with the people of Bangladesh. I am not saying this on account of my being a Bengali. You know Sir, that the people of both the countries fought together against the British imperialist powers for long to achieve their independence. But it is a matter of great regret that because of the weakness of national movement India was partitioned. The British imperialist power wanted that both India and Pakistan should fight each other continuously as that would serve their vested interests. The British imperialist power wanted to play this game of treachery with India and Pakistan always out of imperialist interest. Sir, lakhs of people in Bangladesh have already sacrificed their blood as they understood the conspiracy of the British imperialist power and rose against it. They are continuing their freedom struggle. They are fighting against the vested interests of the imperialist forces. 18.00 hrs. Sir, a similar struggle is going on in West Bengal. The people of West Bengal are fighting for their democratic rights. The Central Government is treading a dangerous path there. They want to crush the constitutional rights of the people of West Bengal. In the entire State section 144 of the IPC has been imposed. People are being detained on false charges under the prevention Detention Act. The CRP and military personnel have been deployed there. People are receiving in human treatment in the hands of CRP men. Therefore, if the Government really wants to support the cause of Bangladesh then the people of West Bengal Should be given to enjoy freedom and their constitutional rights, they should save them from the torture of CRP and military personnel. But, alas! the Government is determined to pass the Maintenance of internal security Ordinance. By passing this legislation, the Central Government wants to turn the State of West Bengal into a Police State. Sir, before the present resolution was taken up for consideration, another resolution was discussed by the House and the subject matter of that resolution was related to the Centre-States relationship. That resolution was an important one. Our party has already demanded that in order to establish true democracy in the country all the States should be given more autonomy. Not only this. The State Government should be given more financial powers. If this demand is not accepted by the Central Government, what course future history of India will take is not known to anyone. Even nobody in this House can predict it. At the end I would say that immediate recognition may be given to the Bangladesh Government. I would also appeal to the socialist Countries and AfroAsian countries
