Which of the following statement (s) is/are incorrect in respect of the Bangladesh crisis which led to Indo-Pak War in 1971?

After the war the U.S government increased all aid to India and Bangladesh.

The correct answer is Option 1 - After the war the U.S government increased all aid to India and Bangladesh.

The U.S. government did not increase any aid to India and Bangladesh to India or Bangladesh. Rather, after the war the U.S government stopped all aid to India.

The Bangladesh crisis had put a heavy strain on India’s economy. About eight million people crossed over the East Pakistan border into India. This was followed by war with Pakistan. After the war the U.S government stopped all aid to India. In the international market, oil prices increased manifold during this period. This led to an all-round increase in prices of commodities. Prices increased by 23 per cent in 1973 and 30 per cent in 1974. Such a high level of inflation caused much hardship to the people.
