About the Book
The contribution of the Citizens of Tripura is the important part in the history of the War of Independence of Bangladesh. Without mentioning the contributions of Tripura, the history of Bangladesh is incomplete. From this awareness I started to prepare this manuscript. Mr. Nurul Haque Asim prepare the Index and minor editing of this book.
I can not claim this book as the complete document on the contribution of Tripura’s people in War of Liberation of Bangladesh. However, I have given my best efforts in collecting many reports, News papers, books etc., which are taken into consideration and some extracts like personal interviews taken from those who have contributed in the Liberation War of Bangladesh. I am grateful to all of them for their sincere co-operations. I hope that many more works will come out on the subject and many books might be published in future. I believe this work will be a start in giving acknowledgements to the people of Tripura.
