💨 Abstract

The Indian National Congress recalled Indira Gandhi's leadership during the 1971 war with Pakistan, emphasizing her decisive role in the creation of Bangladesh. Despite US threats, including the deployment of a nuclear-powered naval task force, Gandhi prioritized national interest, leading to Pakistan's surrender on December 16, 1971. Congress leaders Jairam Ramesh and Sachin Pilot highlighted her bravery and unwavering commitment, praising her leadership on social media.
