message: I believe the article may need to be rewritten. The following are the main objections : General tenor is unsuited to an encyclopedia. This article seems to significantly plagiarize and adapt the first person notes of  retd col niazi. at http://defencejournal.com/oct99/battle-hilli.htm (which was cited). It suffers from factual inaccuracies (eg surrender on Dec 16 or 18?), a somewhat one sided report and hyperbolic tone, with a lack of clarity (Indian army objectives, battle of hilli, and battle of bogra vs series of battles, battle before official declaration)
i.e. merge and cite : 
http://defencejournal.com/oct99/battle-hilli.htm  
http://www.newagebd.com/2007/dec/16/victoryday07/v05.html
Plus official record of indian army at :
http://www.bharat-rakshak.com/LAND-FORCES/Army/History/1971War/PDF/1971Chapter12.pdf and 
Specifically, the objectives, duration, and phases can be synced with the latter two sources. 
The context for the battles (Frontal assault, and direct engagement versus bypass and encircle, resistance from the pakistani army) and the deeds of valor from both sides can be brought out.
The anecdotal information can remain in the citations, and
