Following Major Ziaur Rahman's Declaration of Independence and Provisional Government, most of the senior leaders of the Awami League and many Bengali defectors from Pakistan armed services formed the War Council of the provisional government on 4 April 1971 at Teliapara, Sylhet, where M. A. G. Osmani was first declared unanimously as Commander in Chief of Bangladesh Forces.〔 Within a week many members of the Awami League gathered together in an area bordering India to form the civilian arm. A formal swearing-in ceremony was held on 17 April in Meherpur District. Soon a large guerrilla training camp was set up with many tents and designated on a sprawling abandoned and dilapidated airstrip in Chakulia, Bihar, roughly constructed by the British dating back from WWII. It was the largest temporary guerrilla training camp for training Bangladesh guerrilla fighters. A three-month training course was shortened to a 6 weeks crash course for 300~400 participants per batch. Lt. Col. Das Gupta (originally from Brahmanbaria, Bangladesh) of the Indian Army was the CO of the training unit. Squadron Leader M. Hamidullah Khan was appointed as Bangladesh Provincial Government Chief Representative. The Provincial Government of Bangladesh coordinated war efforts from a colonial mansion on 8, Theatre Road, today known as Shakespeare Sarani in Calcutta with the active support of the Indian government. During the course of the war, the majority of Bengali civil servants and diplomats serving Pakistan began defecting. They subsequently joined the Provincial Government, and operated a small office in Kolkata as well as foreign missions in several Asian, European and North American capitals. A group of leading Bengali intellectuals were appointed Special Envoys and began touring western capitals advocating the Bangladesh cause while leading Bengali cultural figures and activists operated the radio station Shadhin Bangla Betar Kendro (Free Bengal Radio Station).
