In this episode, we continue our discussion with Dr. Hassan Bokhari, author and historian, delving into the ongoing impact of the 1971 war on Bangladesh and Pakistan today. Building on our previous conversation, we explore whether anything has changed in both countries since 1971. We examine key historical issues related to the war, its effects on today's unrest and protests in Bangladesh, and the current situation in Pakistan.
