It is undoubtedly true that 'Mujib knew the difference between 'Lakh' and 'Million'.But one can make mistakes. Even Sk Mujib too. one may commit a mistake and and say 3 milion instead of 3 lakh.
We made no survey about number of saheeds of 1971. Even we made no list of the shaheeds . but we have the list of muktijudhas who fought.Even some people say that they have a list of rajakars also.
Figure is not the main issue.
But they never say why they have no list of shaheeds of our liberation.
Muslims were also tortured ,for your kind information.Mainly Muslims ffought the war of our liberation( see the list of freedom fighters , you will see the fact)
Many Bihary9most of them were muslims was killed their wealth were looted during and after the liberation war.But is not cited in books history of liberation war. the beautiful houses of biharies were occupied by BAL political persons.
It was not a noble task. a great leader mujib should take initiative to punish the his party men and relatives who did the henious act.

There are some people who always try to find issues to disparage our
father of the nation. This theory that Mujib did not know the
difference between lakh and million is an old one surfacing again. I
don't really know whether 3 million, or 3 lakh, 1 lakh or even 50,000
(as esmated by Tikka Khan) people got killed and truth of the matter
is nobody will really know. Those of us who has actually been through
1971 never tried to count the number of deads-we were too busy
running for our lives. But as a first hand eye witlesss who was in
Dacca the whole nine months, let me tell you, we lived a life of
terror. There were buildings burned, men pulled out of buses and
killed just because the bastard didn't like their faces. And if you
were Hindu, you were killed right away. Every Bengali was scared
every single day thinking he or she may not see the end of day.
Anyway about the `million' number-it came from foreign press. So if
we want to blame some one about incorrect estimate we should blame
Time, Newsweek and other Internation press-not Mujib who was not
relesed from Pakistani prison till early 1972.
Please watch this video of Mujib. Hope this will clarify that Mujib
knew the difference between lakh and million. Hear him say "No body
can suppress 70 million people." No, he did not mean 70 lakhs, he
meant 7 crores.
