I always wonder why did they go ahead with the idea of being a part of Pakistan in the first place, especially when their ties to the language was stronger and older than ties to a religion/politics. Was autonomy out of question ?

At the time, East Bengal was almost completely agrarian, and highly dependent on the industrial centers in West Bengal (which went to India), and Pakistan.
