Eastern Command To celebrate Vijay Diwas

Kolkata, Dec 7 (UNI) Every year December 16th is celebrated as Vijay Diwas to commemorate the victory of the Indian Armed Forces along with Mukti-Bahini over Pakistan.
This historic military victory resulted in Pakistan ceding control of then East-Pakistan thus paving the way for the birth of the sovereign nation of Bangladesh. This day marks the culmination of an unparalleled in history when India stood against the tide of times and fought for the principles of freedom and equality that helped millions of Bangladeshis realise their cherished dream of an independent nation.
This day is celebrated as a day of remembrance of those who sacrificed their lives during the 1971 liberation war of Bangladesh. Eastern Command of the army has traditionally been celebrating this day as a mark of respect to the fallen heroes of the Indian Armed Forces and Mukti-Jodha's who made his victory possible.
