The treaty was signed by the foreign ministers of India and Pakistan in New Delhi, Delhi that followed the Simla Agreement in 1972.Under the terms of this agreement, thousands of non-Bengali and Urdu-speaking Biharis, including 92,000 armed forces and civilians officers POWs, were subjects of population transfer to Pakistan from India and Bangladesh. Concurrently, Bangladesh worked together with India to propose the treaty to resolve the humanitarian crises, but did not became a party to the treaty. Overseen by the UNCHR, this agreement resolved the humanitarian crises and it cleared the way for state recognition of Bangladesh by Pakistan."In late August Zulfi sent Minister of State for Defense and Foreign Affairs Aziz Ahmad to Delhi to conclude negotiations of an agreement with Indira Gandhi’s special representative, P. N. Haksar—signed on 28 August 1973—that started the repatriation of the ninety-three thousand Pakistani prisoners of war. Bengalis still in Pakistan were to be sent home to Bangladesh, and the prime ministers of Pakistan and Bangladesh would at some future date "meet to decide what additional. . . persons who may wish to migrate to Pakistan may be permitted to do so"—more than fifty thousand considered themselves Pakistanis. Two decades later, however, those unfortunates had not yet been accepted by the nation they considered their own; most Sindhis as well as Punjabis believed that Pakistan had taken in more Muhajirs than either Karachi or Lahore had room or work for. Mujib repeatedly threatened to put 195 Pakistani prisoners of war on trial for "war crimes" committed in Bangladesh. India offered to take custody of the latter prisoners till final arrangements could be made concerning their treatment after Pakistan recognized Bangladesh."The treaty ended on 1 July 1974, and a total of 230,439 persons migrated to Pakistan and Bangladesh. According to UN, around 121,695 Bangladeshis were moved from Pakistan to Bangladesh, and 108,744 from Bangladesh to Pakistan. In 1974, General Niazi was the last Pakistan armed forces general who was symbolically repatriated to Pakistan from the Wagah border."@en }
