1972 Press Photo Bihari Minority in Bangladesh School

Medico International helps Bihari refugees: The Bihari minority in Bangladesh, brutally exposed to the revenge sentiments of the Bengali and enclosed in narrow refugee camps outside Dacca capital, are one of the most shocking and moving consequences of Indian Pakistani War. The international aid organization Medico International now stated a long report on the living conditions in these camps and develops now a aid program for a part of the about 40,000 Biharis in the camps. Photo Shows The Mohammed pur camp outside Dacca, where 30,000 refugees live under unhuman conditions. If no substantial help comes to these people, they are exposed to genocide like decimation within the coming few month.
