East Pakistan separated and became Bangladesh on 16 December 1971; on the same date in 2014, terrorists attacked the Army Public School in Peshawar, killing over 140 people, most of them children.
After months of civil war and Indian military intervention, Pakistani forces in Dhaka surrendered on 16 December 1971, and East Pakistan became Bangladesh. Forty-three years later, Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan gunmen attacked the Army Public School in Peshawar; the attack led to the National Action Plan against terrorism.
