BANGLA DESH
By Dr. Alexander Lipski and Suzenna MartinAlmost a quarter of a century ago, in August of
1947, the state of Pakistan was born following
the departure of the British from the Indian
subcontinent. It was a most unusual nation, carved
out of Muslim dominated areas of India. It consisted
of two wings, West Pakistan and East Pakistan
(Bangla Desh), separated by over 1,000
miles of Indian territory.
Racially, linguistically and culturally the two
Pakistans were poles apart. Tensions between
the two wings developed almost immediately.
Political, military, and economic power was
concentrated in Urdu-speaking West Pakistan, while
Bengali-speaking Bangla Desh was relegated to a
subordinate position in spite if the fact that it
contained more than half of Pakistan's total
population. Dictatorial rule by West Pakistan army
officers generated discontent in both wings of
Pakistan. Bangla Desh demands for a more equal
treatment were consistently disregarded.
In March of 1969, General Yahya Khan assumed
power in Pakistan with the professed
aim of ending the dictatorship and introducing
Democracy. In the first free election ever held in
the history of Pakistan, in December 1970, the
Awami (People's) League of Bangla Desh won an
overwhelming victory. It emerged as the largest
party in all of Pakistan, entitling it to from Pakistan's
first Democratic government. Yahya Khan
and the West Pakistani leadership, however,
were unwilling to permit a power shift to Bangla
Desh, or even a more equitable distribution of
power.
The results of the election were consequently
disregarded and in March, 1971, a deliberate
reign of terror was unleashed on Bangla Desh to
eliminate opposition to West Pakistani domination
and to drastically reduce the size of the population
of Bangla Desh. An estimated one million
East Bengalis were murdered and up to the present
time approximately ten million terror stricken
East Bengalis have sought refuge in neighboring
India. This is undoubtedly the greatest atrocity
since Hitler's extermination of the Jews.
Even when they escaped to India, the refugees
are threatened by many perils; starvation, lack of
sanitation, housing and most notably - cholera.
When the first crowds crossed the border, doctors
innoculated them against cholera, but now
the East Bengalis are swarming into India in such
great numbers that they cannot all be immunized.
It takes so long to use syringes and there
just isn't enough money for innocluation guns.
The government has put the cost of caring for the
refugees at a minimum of one million dollars a
day and it could go much higher. Although chartered
planes arrive daily bringing shipments of
food, hospital equipment and medicines, India
still has only received barely one-tenth of the
amount of foreign aid that it needs to care for the
millions suffering.
For all the disheartening statistics, however,
the medical service is performing impressively.
Although thousands of escapees, mostly children,
have already died of cholera, those afflicted
can usually be saved by replenishing the body
fluids through intravenous injections or drinking
large doses of solution of salts, baking soda and
glucose. But the flood of escapees is just too
great, and the monies just too little, for all to be
saved. Even in a world jaded by war and atrocity,
suffering on that scale still comes as a sickening
shock. Despite the squalor of their existence the
East Bengalis endure with a minimum of complaint.
Unfortunately, it is expected that with the cessation
of the monsoon rains a new wave of refugees,
numbering at least five million, will enter
India. This will immeasurably aggravate the refugee
problem. It must be clearly understood that
India itself is an impoverished nation hardly able
to feed its own growing population and will be unable
to cope with the influx of refugees unless
she receives all-out support of the rest of civilized
mankind.
RAVI SHANKAR
"To me the whole feeling of Bangla Desh has
been quite a personal one, because I happen to
be a Bengali. This whole issue since last March is
something of such a different nature and my feelings
as it happened, apart from the sympathy I
have because I am a Bengali, apart from being
directly involved because such huge numbers of
people were migrating into India . . . they were
running for their lives and so many were killed,
including my distant relatives, many friends,
including Muslim friends, and even people from
the family of my Guru; their homes burned, completely
destroyed.
"So for me there was great anguish and suffering
for a number of months since March and
it came to such an emotional pitch. This was a
period near the end of June when George came
to California to help in making an album from the
soundtrack of the film RAGA. I was very disturbed
and wanted to do something for the people
of Bangla Desh. I talked with people from
many different organizations in the United States
and in Europe who wanted me to give a benefit
performance. But I thought of doing something
on a very large scale that might bring in a lot of
money and also, you know, awareness. So I
though I would ask George, even if he could not
take part himself, if he could advise me, ask
other artists about it, write or talk about it -
something. Then maybe we could do a big function
where we could raise 25 or 50 thousand dollars.
So, when I talked with him, he was impressed by
my sincerity, and I gave him lots to read and
explained the situation. And it was not only what I
said, as an Indian, a Bengali. When he read so
many things from so many countries; France,
Germany, England, Norway, and the American
press, which was giving such good coverage of
what was happening to millions of people, suffering
so much - he was very deeply moved and said
he would be glad to help in the planning - even to
participate.
"Things started moving very fast. George
called Ringo in Spain where he was working in a
film, and he talked to Leon Russell and all of
these wonderful musicians from the west coast
and east coast who came to play. And he contacted
Mr. Klein, who has taken care of the business
and administration. Everyone has shown
such deep concern. And, of course, Bob Dylan,
as luck would have it, was so wonderful to take
part in this cause. In a period of only four or five
weeks all of this was done. To conceive, plan and
execute in such short time must be setting a
record in the history of world entertainment -
thanks to all of these participants.
"And now I heel a great joy. With George's single,
"Bangla Desh," my single, the film that has
been made of the concert, the album coming out
and whatever the gate monies from this concert
. . . it will all add up to a substantial amount.
Though, when you think of the amount being
spent on almost eight million refugees, and so
many of them children, of course it is like a drop
in the ocean. Maybe it will take care of them for
only two or three days. But that is not the point.
The main issue - beyond the sum of money we
can raise - is that we feel that all the young people
who came to the concerts (maybe 40 or 50
thousand of them) they were made aware of
something very few of them felt or knew clearly
-about Bangla Desh and what has happened to
cause such distress.
"It is like trying to ignite - to pass on the
responsibilities as much as possible to everyone
else. I think this aim has been achieved."*

transcript of an informal interview held two days
