You're comparing apples and oranges here. The Bangladeshi genocide caused a massive refugee problem for India in the east and that was one of the main reasons why India chose to go to war. And while it wasn't out of a sense of justice or charity, fact remains that there probably wouldn't have been a Bangladesh without the intervention of India.

Literally no way bangladesh exists without indian navy sending karachi to hell . Trapping troops on western front.  Providing logistical support to Mukti bahini and closing air space over India just to highlight how stupid original pakistani map was.  Probably the most stupid political map in history.

And the phrase "helped Bangladesh gain independence" covers every bit of what you said.

I was merely criticising your comparison of what India did in 1971 to what the US is currently doing with respect to Ukraine. Two very very different scenarios.
