In the "Background" section, 5th paragraph, in the last statement please re-wikilink/pipe the "generic" term "Bihari" to more context-specific wiki articles - i.e. either to the Bihari (piped to "Stranded Pakistanis in Bangladesh") or the Bihari (piped to "Persecution of Biharis in Bangladesh"). Thank you. 119.74.238.54 (talk) 12:37, 16 December 2023 (UTC)Reply

It was a major cold war between Soviet union and United States. Soviet union stopped the submarines in Indian Ocean if they have entered God knows what worse the outcome would be for india. Similarly Pakistan was not alone too it was supported by usa as it was a strategic ally of usa at that time and it usa ordered Iran too to supply Pakistan arms. In the field do write who is supported by who as this was not a war only between india and pakistan but was one of the major proxy war as a part of cold war. Our friend Israel also helped a lot by supplying both arms and intelligemce. Please mention it in the supported by column 👍 Indianigga (talk) 15:23, 28 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
