  1. @SG You too have believed the propaganda that Pakistan dishes out to its population wrt East Pakistan aka Bangladesh. Fact is, in 1947, East Pakistan used to have bigger economy than West Pakistan. This situation started changing after the 1958 coup by Gen Ayub Khan. This is when West Pakistan started impoverishing East Pakistan to enrich itself. . This is the genesis of the resentment of the Bengalis towards West Pakistan. The Bengalis who visited newly created Islamabad, used to say that they can smell their looted money to create this city. It was not the politicians, public or journalists but the Bengali economists who were the driving force behind the 6 points of autonomy of East Pakistan from West Pakistan which ultimately led to the 8 months long bloody civil war and birth of Bangladesh. In fact, a Harvard educated Bengali economist had predicted breakup of Pakistan to Gen Ayub Khan way back in 1960. As per Tariq Ali, 70% of Pakistan's foreign exchange in 1971 used to come from the jute trade in East Pakistan. Pakistan was broke from the very beginning. It got the recruitment ground of the British India Army but not the economy. With the breakup of Pakistan in 1971, Pakistan is economically unviable. After 1971, it has been artificially propped up by USA, Saudi Arabia and China. Withdrawal of US support after 2022, has started Pakistan's current economic crisis. Saudi Arabia too is no longer keen on carrying the burden of Pakistan for too long. Only China is still propping up Pakistan with one loan after another leading to China becoming the largest debtor of Pakistan. Economic collapse of Pakistan will lead to further breakup of that country artificially created by forcibly merging parts of India, Afghanistan and Balochistan to house all the Muslims in the Indian subcontinent.
