Pakistan Movement (1940-47).

After failure of the war of freedom in 1857,the Muslim leaders were constantly thinking how they could provide the Muslims with peaceful,secured and honoured environment.Though it was being discussed as how to  provide security to personalities like Syed Jamal-ud-Din Afghani,Abdul Haleem Sharar,Abdul Jabber Khairi,Abdul Sattar Khairi,Moulana Mohammad Ali Johr,Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah,Allama Iqbal and Chaudhari Rehmat Ali proposed for partition the Sub-continent. Pakistan was demanded by the whole Muslim nation after a thorough thinking.This demand  was not made under some timely anger or passion.In this way,the demand for partition of the sub-continent grew gradually.The important events that took place  with reference to the Pakistan Movement from 1940 to 1947 are given below.
Pakistan Resolution 1940:
The 27 annual session of All India Muslim League was held at Lahore in the historical park"Iqbal Park" on 23 March 1940.It was presided over by the Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah.Great personalities like Moulana Zafar Ali Khan,Chaudhary Khaleeq-uz-Zaman,Qazi Muhammad Issa,Sir Abdullah Haroon ,Sardar Abdul Rab Nishter and Moulana Abdul Hamid were present in this session.A large number of the Muslims from all over the Sub-continent participated in the Session.A resolution named "Lahore Resolution" was presented in the session by the Tiger of Bengal  A.K Fazl-ul-Haque.It was passed unanimously among the cheers.Thus on this historical day,the Muslims identified their destination.The resolution declared :"No constitutional plan would be workable or acceptable to the Muslims unless geographical contiguous units are demarcated into regions which should be so constituted with such territorial readjusments as may be necessary.That the areas in which  the Muslims are numerically in majority as in the North-Western and Eastern zones of India should be grouped to constitute independent states in which the constituents units shall be autonomous and sovereign."It further reads."That adequate effective and mandatory safeguards shall be specifically provided in the constitution for minorities  in the units and in the regions  for the protection of  their religious,cultural,economic,political and administrative and other rights of the minorities,with their consultation.Arrangements thus should be made for the security of  Muslims where they were in a minority."
