He was an active participant and international organiser of the Greal Liberation War 1971. The Liberation War was going on in different fronts of Bangladesh. The goal of the nation was freedom. Diplomatic initiative to face the propaganda of the rulers of Pakistan was also being taken in many countries. The Mujibnagar government sent Molla Jalal Uddin MP and Mahmud Shah Qureshi, a two member delegation for Middle East. They started their journey from Delhi with the mission to draw support of the world of conscience against genocide and betrayal to the verdict of the people. It was a difficult task to have the support of some Middle East countries who were wrongly biased by the propaganda of the dictators. This book, mainly focusses on internationally organising for support to the War of Liberation.
A quotation from National Professor, Poet Syed Ali Ahsan on the Liberation struggle, has been printed in the beginning of the book: “War of liberation is a great event in our lives. It is difficult to make one perceive it by explaining the depth, broadness and all comprehensive pervadedness. A whole nation became singleminded for a change and this change emerged after a dangerous fight. For literature, it is a very valuable spirit.”
