It was logical from a West Pakistani perspective. While the population of East Pak was greater than West Pak ; the Muslim population of West Pak was greater than that of East Pak. Also, the West Pakistanis thought that the East Paks had too much Hindu influence with their sarees and Sanskritized...
Honestly, I don't understand the almost deity like status of the Army in Pak. They've lost every war they've fought. They seem more like a business conglomerate which has a security wing than an actual army.

Attaching such a yardstick is downright wrong. Post ww-2, the Western press became completely free and is not beholden to the Govt / State.
Does one credit American media for bringing down the Nixon administration? Yes. But should they be held accountable for their own roles in publishing pro...
It's by and large accurate and well researched. The fact that Modi has banned it speaks volumes. Of course it is going to backfire as more people will watch it. But his followers will still worship him.
