brbr> বাংরাদেশের স্বাধীনতা যুদ্ধ দলিলপত্রঃ দ্বাদশ খন্ড SHRI SAMARGUHA: Then we can establish diplomatic relations and he will be the President of a sovereign independent republic. That will give him the greatest legal security. SI-IRI SWARAN SINGH: That it is a separate issue. Let us not, by this attitude, give the impression of softening of our attitude to this immediate question of the release of Sheikh Mujibur Rahman. Whatever may be the circumstances, the entire international community should concentrate on securing his release and saving him from the farcical trial, the intention of starting which has been indicated by President Yahya Khan. Then he referred to the question of a resolution by this august House. Well I would welcome it if there is any such resolution. I would be in favor of that in fact, I think the way this entire House is responding to this suggestion is the clearest form of our expression of sympathy for Sheikh Mujibur Rahman in this situation, and all of us are united in suggesting that the military rulers, in their own interest, will be doing a good turn if they were to release him and start talks with him for finding out whatever may be the solution to this problem. About the appeal to the Speaker, the hon. Speaker is the best person to decide it. MR. SPEAKER: What do you advise me? What should I do? SHRI SWARAN SINGH: About the other question, I would like to say that the Government of India has already taken it up with all friendly countries, including the USSR Government, that they should exercise their influence with the military rulers of Pakistan to bring about a situation where these military atrocities stop there and the military rulers start negotiation with the elected representatives for finding a satisfactory solution. SHRIATAL BIHARIVAIPAYEE (Gwalior): What is their reaction? SHRI SWARAN SINGH: Most of the governments have promised that they will take this matter up with President Yahya Khan. Then, Sir, about the last question the hon. Member has already said that they have sent a memorandum to the Secretary General and I am sure that this will have effect not only in the United Nations circles but also in other countries of the world. As to whether it can be taken in any formal form at the U.N. is a matter which requires careful consideration. I agree with the hon. Member but as to whether it can be taken up as an item is a matter which requires careful consideration. MR. SPEAKER: This is first time that a Calling attention question is also addressed to the Speaker. I have taken a due note of it. If Dr. Karan Singh is prepared to lend me two Jumbo Jets, the whole Parliament will be sent abroad. THE MINISTER OF TOURISM AND CIVIL AVIATION (DR. KARAN SINGH) I am entirely in your hands. MR. SPEAKER: All right. He is entirely in my hands. So, I will try if you can have some excursions but also do something there and not confine yourself to one thing. For
