40 years since the dismemberment of 1971, Pakistan has yet to agree to an equitable share of assets of united Pakistan
LOS ANGELES: After the 1947 partition, MK Gandhi took it upon himself to force the Indian government to transfer to Pakistan its share of assets. Forty years have gone by since the dismemberment of 1971. Pakistan has yet to agree to an equitable share of the assets of united Pakistan. It has not offered reparations to Bangladesh and it has not tried a single military officer for war crimes. In fact, Pakistan has yet to even offer an apology to Bangladesh.
