My Thread On 1971 Ind-Pak War

Soviet Union played a decisive role in Indo-Pak War in 1971.Not only they Foiled an attempt by both British and US Navy but also they vetoed the resolution in the UN Security Council which called for a ceasefire between the two nations at war. Cont

The US decided to intervene by deploying aircraft carrier USS Enterprise With American Naval 7th Fleet in the Bay of Bengal to target Indian Armed Forces there,also the UK deployed HMS EAGLE to do the same job.India decided to seek help from Soviet Union...Cont.

A peace and cooperation treaty was signed between India and Soviet Union In 9 August 1971 and the Soviet Union deployed several frigates,destroyers and even Nuclear Submarines in the bay Of Bengal...Cont.

Soviets directed commander Admiral V.Kruglyakov to reach the bay before American and British troops. He was also asked to surface the Nuclear Submarines when US ships were visible...Cont.

After USS Enterprise saw a Nuclear Submarines in the Bay of Bengal they were shocked to see such heavy protection in the bay and fled.Even HMS EAGLE was diverted to Madagascar...Cont.

It is also believe that Soviet submarines had shadowed the American fleet till it retreated away from Bay Of Bengal...Cont.

Soviets threatened the Chinese of a tough response on its Northern frontiers if they dare to attack Indians and Side With Pakistanis. China watched the happenings on the Indian Subcontinent Impotently.
