What were the reasons behind Pakistan and Bangladesh getting separated.
Tags: Bangladesh, Pakistan, separate
Bangladesh is only one-fifth the size of Pakistan, it has a larger population.
The two nations are very different. Pakistan is a mountainous nation with many ethnic groups, while most people in Bangladesh share the same culture. 98% of the people of Bangladesh speak Bengali, yet less than ten percent of Pakistanis speak Urdu, their official language.
By 1970, East Pakistan paid more taxes than West Pakistan, but the government was dominated by West Pakistanis.
A violent flood in 1970 killed more than 300,000 Pakistanis. Many people in East Pakistan accused the government of delaying shipments of food and relief supplies to the victims

Its not just about the difference in the living style or its not about the mountain and plans. A part from a country has been removed think over.
There are certain reasons, but the major reasons of separation were Indian involvement, because India felt itself in danger, because entire Pakistan was surrounding India at that time. Secondly, the Pakistan (now called Bangladesh) had a huge land that was unable to be managed by just handful people of the administration, as a result, they were deprived of their rights and finally decided to revolt against West Pakistan to ge separated.
