Bimal Sinha rescues a bunch of Indian teenagers from East Pakistani soldiers – By Karunamay Sinha

A group of school students – a prankish bunch of teenagers – was seen advancing in a procession towards the Indo-Pak border (Bangladesh was East Pakistan then). Armed with a loud speaker the procession was being led by a student leader, a tall, fair, lean youth of around twenty. Anxiety writ large on their faces, the meek citizenry watched the most innovative display of a protest march.
