“But what if anyone other than Mujib had presented the Six-Point to the country? Someone almost did. It was Mujib’s feeling that Shah Azizur Rahman, who had joined the Awami League in 1964, would be doing a better job than he by raising the autonomy plan in Lahore. He was dissuaded by Tofazzal Hossain Manik Mia, who saw a whole lot of logic in Mujib’s rather than Shah Aziz’s presenting the Bengali argument at the opposition conference. The rest is, of course, history.”
