'Mitro Bahini' (
Bangla: মিত্রবাহিনী) (''Allied forces'' in
Bangla) was the alliance of the
Indian Army and the
Mukti Bahini (as representation of the
Bangladesh Army) that engaged the
Pakistani forces in December
1971 during the
Bangladesh Liberation War. The alliance provided the final blow to the already weakened
Pakistan Army which surrendered thirteen days after the formal declaration of war.
