So don make it sound as if that was the case.

I meant "No one in
INDIA cared about Bangladesh's independence", all they wanted was to split Pakistan, their arch rival. Ofcourse the Bengalis themselves wanted to get their own country otherwise young people won't be fighting a full blown army for no reason, would they?
The same way US really don't care if the common IRaqis are liberated or not, they are just happy to have world's second largest oil reserve in their bag.Also, the Americans will also leave IRaq once they have made sure that they have brought Iraq completely under their control with smooth supply of oil for the coming decades. Indians after December 16th thought that their mission of seperating their arch rival and creating a friendly nation in the east was complete, thus they left.
Lastly , Bangladesh would have been able to get independence from Pakistan irrespective of India's help. It would have just taken longer. The primary reason being we were 55% of the population and were 1000 miles away from West Pakistan. The Pakistan army would have had an extremely hard time in maintaining supply for a long time. Even the mighty US army could not sustain a war in Vietnam or the Soviets in Afghanistan since the locals were against them. So discrediting the effor of our own Muktijodha(freedom fighters) and giving all credit to a foreign force is not only shameful but illogical too.
