Surrender

Surrender: The freedom fighters and Indian soldiers surrounded Dhaka and demmanded that the Pakistani army surrender. Because the Governor House had been bombed, Governor Malik and his ministers took refuge at Hotel Intercontinental (today's Sheraton). The Indian air forces dropped thousands of leaflets: "Surrender to us before the freedom fighters are get you". Dhaka's powerful and mighty(!) Pakistan army then decided to surrender. When he saw that the surrender documents had something surrendering to the joint leadership of 'Bangladesh' and India, a Pakistani general weakly tried to suggest that the name 'Bangladesh' be removed from the document, but nobody paid attention to him; there was no way to deny the truth of history!
On the 16th of December in front of thousands and thousands of people at the Racecource Maidan, General Niazi signed the surrender document that forced him to bow his head and leave a free Bangladesh. The victory that the 70 million people of the country had been awating for nine long months was finally came to them who lot their loved ones during the war.
It was the 22nd December by the time the rest of the Pakistani soldiers had surrendered all over Bangladesh.
