The Day India Broke Pakistan | 1971 War in the Eastern Theatre | Vijay Diwas Special | Brig BS Mehta
Today as we celebrate Vijay Divas, we celebrate the victory of our Armed Forces in 1971 war, over our adversary Pakistan.
Brigadier Balram Singh Mehta and Colonel Nitin Chandra join Sanjay Dixit to discuss the humiliating defeat of the Pak Army resulting in the capture of 93000 PsOW, with focus on the Eastern Theatre and fall of Dhaka.
Fighting formations of the Eastern Command which went to war in this Theatre were the 33 Corps, 4 Corps, 11 Communication Zone and the newly raised Strike Corps ie 2 Corps.
2 Corps was tasked for operations in the South Western sector of East Pakistan. The terrain in this Sector was riverine with loose sand and criss crossed by large No of rivulets, ponds and trees.
This newly raised 2 Corps was allotted one tank regiment ie. 45 cavalry (in which Brig Mehta was 2 i/c as a Captain), which had PT 76 light amphibious tanks (which in the recently released movie Pippa were famously known by the same name) was an ideally suited tank to operate and fight in this terrain.
From the battle of Garibpur on 21 Nov 71 till the surrender was announced on 16 Dec 1971, 45 Cavalry fought 29 battles with 17 infantry battalions which is a record in itself, and lived upto it's war cry वीर भोग्या वसुंधरा
