16 December Victory day images: Victory Day is celebrated every 16 December in Bangladesh to mark the anniversary of the surrender of Pakistan’s armed forces in Bangladesh at the end of the 1971 Bangladesh Liberation War.
The union with Pakistan only came about as a result of the partition of British India into Muslim and Hindu “zones” in 1947 – India becoming one nation and Pakistan another. However, West Pakistan (modern Pakistan) was separated by hundreds of miles from East Pakistan (Bangladesh), which made for a most unnatural union.
Later, Pakistan began to refuse equal status to the Bengali language and otherwise ignite resentment in Bangladesh. Finally, in 1971, a revolt broke out as Bengalis demanded self-rule. Pakistan, however, fought back.

Ailed by India, and by the logistical difficulty of holding onto a land so geographically separated from their homeland, Pakistan was finally defeated. The Pakistani General Amir Niazi finally surrendered to Allied General Jagjit Aurora on 16 December at the Ramna Race Course in downtown Dhaka.
The crowds gathered to witness the event cheered wildly. Within only a few months’ time, most other nations of the world had recognized Bangladesh’s hard-won independence.
16 DECEMBER the VICTORY DAY of BANGLADESH
Bijoy Dibash (Victory Day) 16 December 1971 is the most important day in the history of Bangladesh. On that day the Pakistani Army surrendered all its modern arms along with 92,000 soldiers. The day was named Bijoy Dibash (Victory Day). Bangladesh established the independent and the sovereign People’s Republic of Bangladesh. But the achievement came at a huge price. There was a devastating loss of life. Three million is the estimated number of Bengali people murdered in the course of their country’s 1971 War of Liberation with Pakistan. Whether we call it murder, genocide, holocaust, or a brutal consequence of war itself, the number of dead remains. The inconceivable number of people killed in this short war defines this event as the worst genocide in the annals of history.
Happy Victory Day
Different socio-political, educational and cultural institutions and organizations have chalked out a series of programmes to celebrate the nation’s glorious victory over the Pakistani occupation force. The government has taken elaborate programmes to celebrate the Day at the national level on December 16. Happy Victory Day…..
