Criticism
Mohan Mia is criticised heavily for failing to support the demand for the independence of East Pakistan. Justifying his stance on the basis of idealogical convictions of a unified Muslim nation in the South Asia and his contribution to the Pakistan movement, Mohan Mia stopped short of calling for an independent homeland for the Bengalis of East Pakistan.
Mohon Mia joined the infamous Central Peace Committee during the Bangladesh Liberation War. The committee consisted of the most prominent pro-Pakistani Bengali leaders including Golam Azam and other razakars. Mohon Mia is also rumoured to have maintained close relations with Major General Rao Farman Ali, the Pakistani general widely believed as the chief engineer of the 1971 Bangladesh atrocities.

Famous quotes containing the word criticism:
“Cubism had been an analysis of the object and an attempt to put it before us in its totality; both as analysis and as synthesis, it was a criticism of appearance. Surrealism transmuted the object, and suddenly a canvas became an apparition: a new figuration, a real transfiguration.”
—Octavio Paz (b. 1914)
“Good criticism is very rare and always precious.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“It is the will of God that we must have critics, and missionaries, and Congressmen, and humorists, and we must bear the burden. Meantime, I seem to have been drifting into criticism myself. But that is nothing. At the worst, criticism is nothing more than a crime, and I am not unused to that.”
—Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
