( Marks: 3 )
ANS: The most significant achievement of this pact for the Muslims was that for the first time the
Congress had recognized the Muslim League as a representative body of the Muslims of the sub-continent
and they were granted separate electorates in the provincial as well as in Imperial Legislative Council.

ANS: The Pakistan Movement refers to the independence movement of Pakistan from the British
Indian empire and its emergence as a sovereign country. It has its origins in the United Provinces of Agra
and Oudh. The movement was led by lawyer Muhammad Ali Jinnah and such leaders as Allama
Iqbal, Liaqat Ali Khan, Fatima Jinnah,Bahadur Yar Jung, Maulana Mohammad Ali Jauhar, Huseyn
Shaheed Suhrawardy, A.K. Fazlul Huq, and Sardar Abdur Rab Nishtar, Sir Ziauddin Ahmed.

ANS: The main clauses of the Lucknow Pact were:
1. There shall be self-government in India.
2. Muslims should be given one-third representation in the central government
3. There should be separate electorates for all the communities until a community demanded for joint
electorates.
4. System of weightage should be adopted.

Prime Minister Ramsay MacDonald announced the Communal Award:
1. Separate electorate for all minorities ofIndia.
2. Weightage to minorities
3. No Muslim majorities in Punjab and Bengalas was followed in Lucknow Pact
4. One third representation for Muslims in Central legislature
5. One fourth representation for Muslims in services
6. Sind to be made a province

MK Gandhi did not accept the Hindus and Muslims as Two Nations and emphasized on the freedom of
united India. Jinnah told him that the Muslims could never budge even a single inch from their
ideological and constitutional demand.

ANS: The Partition of Bengal in 1947 divided Bengal into the two separate entities of West
Bengal belonging to India, and East Bengal belonging to Pakistan. This was part of the Partition of India
and officially took place during August 14-August 15, 1947. East Bengal was renamed East Pakistan, and
later became the independent nation of Bangladeshafter the Bangladesh Liberation War of 1971.
ANS: The Quit India Movement (Bharat Chhodo Andolan or the August Movement) was a civil
disobedience movement launched in India in August 1942 in response to Mohandas Gandhi's call for
immediate independence. Gandhi hoped to bring the British government to the negotiating table. Almost
the entire Indian National Congress leadership, and not just at the national level, was put into confinement
less than twenty-four hours after Gandhi's speech, and the greater number of the Congress leaders were to
spend the rest of World War II in jail...
Explain the Evolution of Two-Nation Theory in the Subcon?
ANS: The Two-Nation Theory was the basis for the Partition of India in 1947. It stated that Muslims and
Hindus were two separate nations by every definition, and therefore Muslims should have an autonomous
homeland in the Muslim majority areas ofBritish India for the safeguard of their political, cultural, and
social rights, within or without a United India. The Two-Nation Theory is the ideology that the primary
identity of Muslims in the Indiansubcontinent is their religion, rather than their language or ethnicity, and
therefore Indian Hindus and Muslims are two distinct nationalities, regardless of ethnic or other
commonalities.This Theory was a founding principle of the Pakistan Movement (i.e. the Ideology
of Pakistan), and the Partition of India in 1947.
What were Delhi Muslim Proposals? Discuss in detail.?

ANS: Important Muslim leaders on the initiative of the Quaid met in Delhi to discuss constitutional and
political issues. The major demands were:
_ Punjab and Bengal: statuary Muslim majorities
_ No Weightage in provinces
_ Sind to be separated from Bombay
_ Constitutional Reforms in NWFP
_ One-third seats for Muslims in Central Legislature
_ On communal issues, no law will be passed if three-fourth members of the
concerned community oppose it. If these demands are accepted, they will give up ‘separate electorate.’
Subsequently, the Muslim League was divided in the Punjab, Shafi League and Jinnah League. Sir
Muhammad Shafi opposed Jinnah on the issues: _ Separate electorate _ Attitude towards the Simon
Commission. Jinnah continued his unremitting efforts to promote Hindu-Muslim unity.
Write a detailed note on the impacts of Khilaphat Movement on Indian politics.
ANS:
The Khilafat movement (1919-1924) was a pan-Islamic, political campaign launched
byMuslims in British India to influence the British government and to protect the Ottoman Empire during
the aftermath of World War I. The position of Caliph after the Armistice of Mudros of October 1918 with
the military occupation of Istanbul and Treaty of Versailles(1919) fell into a disambiguation along with
the Ottoman Empire's existence. The movement gained force after the Treaty of Sèvres (August 1920)
which solidified the partitioning of the Ottoman Empire[1]. In India, although mainly a Muslim religious
movement, the movement became a part of the wider Indian independence movement. The movement
was a topic in Conference of London (February 1920). The Lucknow pact showed that it was possible for
middle-class, English-educated Muslims and Hindus to arrive at an amicable settlement on Hindu-Muslim
constitutional and political problems. This unity reached its climax during the Khilafat and the Non-
Cooperation Movements.After World War I, the Ottoman Empire faced dismemberment. Under the
leadership of the Ali Brothers, Maulana Muhammad Ali and Maulana Shaukat Ali, the Muslims of
South Asia launched the historic Khilafat Movement to try and save it. Mohandas Karam Chand Gandhi
linked the issue of Swaraj with the Khilafat issue to associate Hindus with the movement. The ensuing
movement was the first countrywide popular movement.The Muslims of India had a strong feeling of
identity with the world community of Islam. They had seen the decline in the political fortunes of Islam
as the European powers conquered the Muslim lands one after the other. The Anglo-Russian convention
of 1908 had reduced their next-door neighbor Iran to a mere dependency.Afghanistan also suffered as it
was a bone of contention between Russia and Britain, and was now under the latter's sphere of
influence.The general impression among the Muslims of India was that the western powers were waging a
war against Islam throughout the world in order to rob it of all its power and influence. The Ottoman
Empire was the only Muslim power that had maintained a semblance of authority and the Muslims of
India wanted to save the Islamic political power from extinction.
As an institution, the Khilafat had a checkered past. It had originally migrated
from Medina toDamascus and from Damascus to Baghdad. For sometime it was located in Egypt, then it
fell to the lot of Turkey, very much as a prize.The Turkish Sultans had claimed to be the caliphs of the
Muslim world. As long as the Mughal Empire had been in existence, the Muslims of India had not
recognized their claim. At this critical juncture, when the Muslims of the Sub-continent had no sovereign
ruler of their own, they began to see the necessity of recognizing the Sultan of Turkey as their caliph.
Tipu Sultan was the first Indian Muslim who, having been frustrated in his attempts to gain recognition
from the Mughals, had turned to the Sultan of Turkey to establish a legal right to his throne.
The European powers had played a leading role in reducing the might of Turkey in Europeto Eastern
Thrace, Constantinople and the straits in the Balkan Wars (1912-13). To seek revenge, the Turks decided
to side with the Germans against the Allied Forces. The Indian Muslims supported this decision.
Muhammad Ali argued that for Muslims to accept mandates over Iraq, Syria andPalestine would amount
to a total disregard of the wishes of the Holy Prophet (S. A. W.). Thus the Muslims of India launched the
Tehrik-i-Khilafat. The objectives were as follows:
1. To maintain the Turkish Caliphate.
2. To protect the holy places of the Muslims.
3. To maintain the unity of the Ottoman Empire.
Although the Khilafat Movement failed to achieve its declared objectives, it carried political awakening
to large masses of Muslims. It was during the Khilafat days that representatives of Indian Muslims came
into contact with eminent personages from other Muslims countries to save the semblance of unity in the
world of Islam. The Khilafat Movement was an asset for the struggle of Pakistan. It made clear to the
Indian Muslims to trust neither the British nor the Hindus, but to look to their own strengths for self-
preservation.
(b) 1973 Constitution 5

Constitutional Committee comprising National Assembly (NA) members from all parties was set up in
April 1972. Law Minister was the Chairman of this Committee.All parties agreed on the future political

compromises final draft was approved unanimously on April 10, 1973. The new Constitution was
enforced on August 14, 1973.
(c) General Mirza Aslam Beg 5
General Mirza Aslam Beg, born 2 August, 1931, is a retired four star rank general who was the Chief of
Army Staff of the Pakistan Army succeeding General Muhammad Zia-ul-Haq, after the latter died in an
air crash on August 17, 1988. He continued to hold the powerful post of Army Chief till 1991, when his
political ambitions forced the then President Ghulam Ishaq Khan to nominate General Asif Nawaz as the
new Army chief three months prior to Gen Beg’s retirement
(d) Importance of Cotton export 5

The importance of cotton can hardly be over emphasized in the economy of Pakistan.Pakistan is the 3rd
largest exporter of raw cotton and a leading exporter of yarn in the world. Cotton is not only an export-
earning crop but also provides raw material to local textile industry. A profound investment in the form of
over1000 ginning factories, over 400, textile mills heavily depends upon cotton.
(c) The Lahore Resolution http://www.vustudents.net

The Muslim League held its annual session atLahore on 22-24 March 1940. The Lahore Resolution was
moved by Maulvi Fazlul Haq and seconded by Ch. Khaliquzzaman that finally approved on March 24,
1940. Jinnah rightly expressed his valuable remarks about the political circumstances of India and the
Muslims stand. He said: “Indian problem is not communal but international. No Constitution can work
without recognizing this reality. Muslims of India will not accept a constitution that establishes a
government of the Hindu majority on them. If Hindus and Muslims are placed under one democratic
system, this would mean Hindu Raj.”
(d) Achhut community
(e) i
: Describe the causes of the division of Bengal and its impact on the Muslim politics in
the subcontinent
ANS: United Bengal’s area covered 189,000 sq. miles with 80 million populations. Dr Abdul
Hameedwrites in his book, Muslim Separatism in India, that the partition was imperative even if Curzon
had not initiated it. A Lt. Governor had problems in looking after the eastern areas. Mainly Muslim
suffered because of the rotten administration by the British. Before 1905, many proposals of partition of
Bengal had been under consideration but Lord Curzon decided to practicalise this administrative
scheme. East Bengal became incidentally a Muslim majority province having 13000000 out of
31000000. West Bengalwas a Hindu majority province. Muslims were very happy on the partition as this
had enabled them to promote their life conditions. It was rightly an opportunity for compensation. The
Muslim community supported it strongly but Hindus retaliated furiously saying it the division of
motherland. The Congress joined the anti-partition movement.They started widespread agitation, violence
and boycott of foreign goods. The main reason of Hindu protest was that they had loosened grip over the
eastern parts.
Explain the Cabinet Mission Plan and reaction of the political parties.
ANS: The British Cabinet Mission of 1946 to India aimed to discuss and plan for the transfer of power
from the British Raj to Indian leadership, providing India with independence under Dominion status in
the Commonwealth of Nations. Formulated at the initiative of Clement Attlee, thePrime Minister of the
United Kingdom, the mission consisted of Lord Pethick-Lawrence, the Secretary of State for India, Sir
Stafford Cripps, President of the Board of Trade, and A. V. Alexander, the First Lord of the
Admiralty. Lord Wavell, the Viceroy of India, did not participate. TheMission's purpose was:
1. Hold preparatory discussions with elected representatives of British India and the Indian states in order
to secure agreement as to the method of framing the constitution.
2. Set up a constitution body.
3. Set up an Executive Council with the support of the main Indian parties.
The approval of the plans would determine the composition of the new government. The Congress
Working Committee had initially approved the plan. However, on 10 July, Jawaharlal Nehru, who later
became the first prime minister of India, held a press conference in Bombaydeclaring that
the Congress had agreed only to participate in the Constituent Assembly and "regards itself free to change
or modify the Cabinet Mission Plan as it thought best."[2] The Congress ruled out the June 16 plan, seeing
it as the division of India into small states[citation needed]. Moreover,the Congress was a Centralist party.
Intellectuals like Kanji Dawarkadas criticized the Cabinet Plan. Congress was
against decentralization and it had been under pressure from Indian capitalists who wanted a
strong Center. The plan's strongest opponent was the principal Indian leader Mohandas Gandhi, due to the
reason that the territories had been grouped together on the basis of religion[citation needed].
The Muslim League gave its approval to the plan. There was an impression that the Congress also had
accepted the scheme and the Plan would be the basis of the future constitution of India[citation needed]. Jinnah,
in his speech to the League Council, clearly stated that he recommended acceptance only because nothing
better could be obtained[citation needed]. However, on declaration from the Congress President that the
Congress could change the scheme through its majority in the Constituent Assembly, this meant that the
minorities would be placed at the mercy of the majority. The Muslim League Council met at Bombay on
27 July. "Mr. Jinnah in his opening speech reiterated the demand for Pakistan as the only course left open
to the Muslim League. After three days' discussion, the Council passed a resolution rejecting the Cabinet
Mission Plan.

Hindu differences.
Explain the Cancellation of the Partition ofBengal?

ANS: The cancellation of the Partition ofBengal was announced in 1911.The British government revoked

government response to the violent strategy of protests adopted by the Hindus.

to improve since 1967 and especially after the death of Nasser in 1970.

Comment on the importance of Education and why Pakistan’s position is low down in Literacy?
Importance of Education:
Education is a key to development for individual, society and state. It shapes natural qualities and talents
of the individuals. It has positive relevance to family and society. It also confers citizens’ confidence to
deal with environment, a sense of purpose. Education provides a goal orientation and is helpful to others
by educating them. Education provides entitlement to job and professions. It gives effective tanning to the
citizens about their rights and duties. It plays a more constructive role in character building of the person
and in turn society as a whole. Education should be integrated to nation building and should be able to
transmit the primary values. Education should be responsible for the formation of attitude.
It should transmit socialization among individuals. Education system is designed according to the
ideology of the state and its identity. Education is the indicator of socio-economic development. For the
real progress proper educational facilities should be provided. Literacy rate should be enhanced. Trained
and qualified human power can make a nation success. Only such educated people can better be equipped
to deal with changing situations and challenges of the time. Education provides better understanding of
international environment that affects all of us. Islam asks Muslims to get education. Other religions also
value education. Resource allocation for education is far from satisfactory. It is much less than what a
large number of countries spend on education, especially those having developed after World War II.
Most of these allocations go to salaries and administration. Fewer amounts are given for infrastructure,
facilities of research and development.
Low Literacy:
In Pakistan literacy rate is 46 per cent. While meaningful literacy is far less. Female literacy is lower. In
rural areas literacy is much low.

Who
was Justice Shahabuddine?

In rural areas literacy is much low.
Draw attention to the Criticism on the 2nd Basic Principles Committee Report 1952?

of representation was not acceptable. It was declared against the principle of federation. The WP favoured
equality only for Upper House. The political crisis removed Prime Minister Nazimuddin and attention
diverted from the core issue.
Describe the Background of the Constitution of 1962?

Background Military took over on 7 October 1958 and consequently Ayub Khan became Chief Martial
Law Administrator. One major task was to frame a new Constitution. The administration was critical of
Parliamentary system because it caused instability in the past. They sought stability of the nation in the
gradual development of democracy.
What were the main constitutional issues which Pakistan had to face at the beginning?
Major Issues
The major issues, the first constituent assembly faced, were about:
1. Federalism
2. Representation
3. Separate or Joint Electorate
4. The National Language Issue
5. Parliamentary or Presidential system
6. The Islamic or Secular State
1: Federalism
There was consensus on federalism but yet there were many issues to be settled. The main was
that Pakistan consisted of two territorial parts,East Pakistan (with more population, less territory but
administratively one unit) and West Pakistan (administratively 4 units). Federalism is meant to
accommodate such kind of diversity maintaining the unity of the state or country. Division of power: It
was the most difficult question that how the power would be divided between Centre and the Provinces.
The heritage of British rule gave the tradition of a Strong Centre. But the provinces were demanding more
Autonomy and Provincial Rights. In the Interim Constitution and the 1956 Constitution tradition of strong
centre continued.
2: Representation
Representation at the federal level was another conflicting issue because East Pakistan and West
Pakistan were different in population and size. On the other hand there was diversity in Western part
of Pakistan. The provinces ofWest Pakistan were also different in population and size. All of them were
sensitive to their representation and provincial autonomy. To have a Standard Formula for the
representation of units and population the Constituent Assembly (CA) formed a Basic Principle
Committee (BPC) on March 12, 1949. The primary task of this committee was to frame a set of basic
principles for the future constitution of Pakistan.
3: Separate or Joint Electorate

Separate electorate was adopted on the demand of Muslims in 1909 by the British Government. But the
minorities did not favour this after independence. Religious elements supported this as a part of heritage.
East: decided for Joint Electorate.
West: Separate electorate.
1957: Joint Electorate was adopted for allPakistan by the National Assembly.
4: The National Language Issue
Pre-independence: Muslim elite all over Indiaadopted Urdu. In 1948 Jinnah declared that Urdu would be
the national language but provinces could use their languages. Opposition against Urdu was there in East
Bengal. This became more pronounced after the death of Jinnah as controversies erupted on constitution
making. Language Movement started in East
Pakistan February, 1952.
There was a complaint about anti Bengali language attitude of the federal government. Two-language
formula was adopted in 1954. Since 1973 Urdu was adopted as national language along with the support
for development of regional languages.
5: Parliamentary or Presidential
There was a consensus for parliamentary system. But there was a limited demand for presidential system.
Supporters of Presidential system became dominant after the 1958 military takeover. The 1962
Constitution was a Presidential constitution.
7: The Islamic or Secular State

Give details about the 1977 Elections and Agitation
1977 Elections and Agitation:
As a result of elections of 1977 PPP won the elections. But joint opposition blamed a mass rigging in the
election results. They demanded fresh elections. Bhutto initially was stubborn but later showed inclination
to compromise but history has taken a U-turn. As he refused to negotiate the elected majority party in
1971, now opposition refused to compromise and took the case to the streets. Urban shopkeepers,
businessmen, students, women and even the intelligentsia joined hands against the government. The result
was the third Martial Law and end of democracy.

Write a very brief note on the 2nd Constituent Assembly 1955?
Ghulam Muhammad called a Convention onMay 10, 1955. All its members were to be elected
indirectly (by the provincial assemblies). In this way, the 2nd CA came into existence.

Draw attention to the characteristics/features of the constitution of 1973?

( Marks: 3 )
ANS: The most significant achievement of this pact for the Muslims was that for the first time the
Congress had recognized the Muslim League as a representative body of the Muslims of the sub-continent
and they were granted separate electorates in the provincial as well as in Imperial Legislative Council.

ANS: The Pakistan Movement refers to the independence movement of Pakistan from the British
Indian empire and its emergence as a sovereign country. It has its origins in the United Provinces of Agra
and Oudh. The movement was led by lawyer Muhammad Ali Jinnah and such leaders as Allama
Iqbal, Liaqat Ali Khan, Fatima Jinnah,Bahadur Yar Jung, Maulana Mohammad Ali Jauhar, Huseyn
Shaheed Suhrawardy, A.K. Fazlul Huq, and Sardar Abdur Rab Nishtar, Sir Ziauddin Ahmed.

ANS: The main clauses of the Lucknow Pact were:
1. There shall be self-government in India.
2. Muslims should be given one-third representation in the central government
3. There should be separate electorates for all the communities until a community demanded for joint
electorates.
4. System of weightage should be adopted.

Prime Minister Ramsay MacDonald announced the Communal Award:
1. Separate electorate for all minorities ofIndia.
2. Weightage to minorities
3. No Muslim majorities in Punjab and Bengalas was followed in Lucknow Pact
4. One third representation for Muslims in Central legislature
5. One fourth representation for Muslims in services
6. Sind to be made a province

MK Gandhi did not accept the Hindus and Muslims as Two Nations and emphasized on the freedom of
united India. Jinnah told him that the Muslims could never budge even a single inch from their

ANS: The Partition of Bengal in 1947 divided Bengal into the two separate entities of West
Bengal belonging to India, and East Bengal belonging to Pakistan. This was part of the Partition of India
and officially took place during August 14-August 15, 1947. East Bengal was renamed East Pakistan, and
later became the independent nation of Bangladeshafter the Bangladesh Liberation War of 1971.
ANS: The Quit India Movement (Bharat Chhodo Andolan or the August Movement) was a civil
disobedience movement launched in India in August 1942 in response to Mohandas Gandhi's call for
immediate independence. Gandhi hoped to bring the British government to the negotiating table. Almost
the entire Indian National Congress leadership, and not just at the national level, was put into confinement
less than twenty-four hours after Gandhi's speech, and the greater number of the Congress leaders were to
spend the rest of World War II in jail...
Explain the Evolution of Two-Nation Theory in the Subcon?
ANS: The Two-Nation Theory was the basis for the Partition of India in 1947. It stated that Muslims and
Hindus were two separate nations by every definition, and therefore Muslims should have an autonomous
homeland in the Muslim majority areas ofBritish India for the safeguard of their political, cultural, and
social rights, within or without a United India. The Two-Nation Theory is the ideology that the primary
identity of Muslims in the Indiansubcontinent is their religion, rather than their language or ethnicity, and
therefore Indian Hindus and Muslims are two distinct nationalities, regardless of ethnic or other
commonalities.This Theory was a founding principle of the Pakistan Movement (i.e. the Ideology
of Pakistan), and the Partition of India in 1947.
What were Delhi Muslim Proposals? Discuss in detail.?

ANS: Important Muslim leaders on the initiative of the Quaid met in Delhi to discuss constitutional and
political issues. The major demands were:
_ Punjab and Bengal: statuary Muslim majorities
_ No Weightage in provinces
_ Sind to be separated from Bombay
_ Constitutional Reforms in NWFP
_ One-third seats for Muslims in Central Legislature
_ On communal issues, no law will be passed if three-fourth members of the
concerned community oppose it. If these demands are accepted, they will give up ‘separate electorate.’
Subsequently, the Muslim League was divided in the Punjab, Shafi League and Jinnah League. Sir
Muhammad Shafi opposed Jinnah on the issues: _ Separate electorate _ Attitude towards the Simon
Commission. Jinnah continued his unremitting efforts to promote Hindu-Muslim unity.
Write a detailed note on the impacts of Khilaphat Movement on Indian politics.
ANS:
The Khilafat movement (1919-1924) was a pan-Islamic, political campaign launched
byMuslims in British India to influence the British government and to protect the Ottoman Empire during
the aftermath of World War I. The position of Caliph after the Armistice of Mudros of October 1918 with
the military occupation of Istanbul and Treaty of Versailles(1919) fell into a disambiguation along with
the Ottoman Empire's existence. The movement gained force after the Treaty of Sèvres (August 1920)
which solidified the partitioning of the Ottoman Empire[1]. In India, although mainly a Muslim religious
movement, the movement became a part of the wider Indian independence movement. The movement
was a topic in Conference of London (February 1920). The Lucknow pact showed that it was possible for
middle-class, English-educated Muslims and Hindus to arrive at an amicable settlement on Hindu-Muslim
constitutional and political problems. This unity reached its climax during the Khilafat and the Non-
Cooperation Movements.After World War I, the Ottoman Empire faced dismemberment. Under the
leadership of the Ali Brothers, Maulana Muhammad Ali and Maulana Shaukat Ali, the Muslims of
South Asia launched the historic Khilafat Movement to try and save it. Mohandas Karam Chand Gandhi
linked the issue of Swaraj with the Khilafat issue to associate Hindus with the movement. The ensuing
movement was the first countrywide popular movement.The Muslims of India had a strong feeling of
identity with the world community of Islam. They had seen the decline in the political fortunes of Islam
as the European powers conquered the Muslim lands one after the other. The Anglo-Russian convention
of 1908 had reduced their next-door neighbor Iran to a mere dependency.Afghanistan also suffered as it
was a bone of contention between Russia and Britain, and was now under the latter's sphere of
influence.The general impression among the Muslims of India was that the western powers were waging a
war against Islam throughout the world in order to rob it of all its power and influence. The Ottoman
Empire was the only Muslim power that had maintained a semblance of authority and the Muslims of
India wanted to save the Islamic political power from extinction.
As an institution, the Khilafat had a checkered past. It had originally migrated
from Medina toDamascus and from Damascus to Baghdad. For sometime it was located in Egypt, then it
fell to the lot of Turkey, very much as a prize.The Turkish Sultans had claimed to be the caliphs of the
Muslim world. As long as the Mughal Empire had been in existence, the Muslims of India had not
recognized their claim. At this critical juncture, when the Muslims of the Sub-continent had no sovereign
ruler of their own, they began to see the necessity of recognizing the Sultan of Turkey as their caliph.
Tipu Sultan was the first Indian Muslim who, having been frustrated in his attempts to gain recognition
from the Mughals, had turned to the Sultan of Turkey to establish a legal right to his throne.
The European powers had played a leading role in reducing the might of Turkey in Europeto Eastern
Thrace, Constantinople and the straits in the Balkan Wars (1912-13). To seek revenge, the Turks decided
to side with the Germans against the Allied Forces. The Indian Muslims supported this decision.
Muhammad Ali argued that for Muslims to accept mandates over Iraq, Syria andPalestine would amount
to a total disregard of the wishes of the Holy Prophet (S. A. W.). Thus the Muslims of India launched the
Tehrik-i-Khilafat. The objectives were as follows:
1. To maintain the Turkish Caliphate.
2. To protect the holy places of the Muslims.
3. To maintain the unity of the Ottoman Empire.
Although the Khilafat Movement failed to achieve its declared objectives, it carried political awakening
to large masses of Muslims. It was during the Khilafat days that representatives of Indian Muslims came
into contact with eminent personages from other Muslims countries to save the semblance of unity in the
world of Islam. The Khilafat Movement was an asset for the struggle of Pakistan. It made clear to the
Indian Muslims to trust neither the British nor the Hindus, but to look to their own strengths for self-
preservation.
(b) 1973 Constitution 5

Constitutional Committee comprising National Assembly (NA) members from all parties was set up in
April 1972. Law Minister was the Chairman of this Committee.All parties agreed on the future political
system in October 1972. The Committee reported onDecember 31, 1972. After long deliberations and
compromises final draft was approved unanimously on April 10, 1973. The new Constitution was
enforced on August 14, 1973.
(c) General Mirza Aslam Beg 5
General Mirza Aslam Beg, born 2 August, 1931, is a retired four star rank general who was the Chief of
Army Staff of the Pakistan Army succeeding General Muhammad Zia-ul-Haq, after the latter died in an
air crash on August 17, 1988. He continued to hold the powerful post of Army Chief till 1991, when his
political ambitions forced the then President Ghulam Ishaq Khan to nominate General Asif Nawaz as the
new Army chief three months prior to Gen Beg’s retirement
(d) Importance of Cotton export 5

The importance of cotton can hardly be over emphasized in the economy of Pakistan.Pakistan is the 3rd
largest exporter of raw cotton and a leading exporter of yarn in the world. Cotton is not only an export-
earning crop but also provides raw material to local textile industry. A profound investment in the form of
over1000 ginning factories, over 400, textile mills heavily depends upon cotton.
(c) The Lahore Resolution http://www.vustudents.net

The Muslim League held its annual session atLahore on 22-24 March 1940. The Lahore Resolution was
moved by Maulvi Fazlul Haq and seconded by Ch. Khaliquzzaman that finally approved on March 24,
1940. Jinnah rightly expressed his valuable remarks about the political circumstances of India and the
Muslims stand. He said: “Indian problem is not communal but international. No Constitution can work
without recognizing this reality. Muslims of India will not accept a constitution that establishes a
government of the Hindu majority on them. If Hindus and Muslims are placed under one democratic
system, this would mean Hindu Raj.”

: Describe the causes of the division of Bengal and its impact on the Muslim politics in
the subcontinent
ANS: United Bengal’s area covered 189,000 sq. miles with 80 million populations. Dr Abdul
Hameedwrites in his book, Muslim Separatism in India, that the partition was imperative even if Curzon
had not initiated it. A Lt. Governor had problems in looking after the eastern areas. Mainly Muslim
suffered because of the rotten administration by the British. Before 1905, many proposals of partition of
Bengal had been under consideration but Lord Curzon decided to practicalise this administrative
scheme. East Bengal became incidentally a Muslim majority province having 13000000 out of
31000000. West Bengalwas a Hindu majority province. Muslims were very happy on the partition as this
had enabled them to promote their life conditions. It was rightly an opportunity for compensation. The
Muslim community supported it strongly but Hindus retaliated furiously saying it the division of
motherland. The Congress joined the anti-partition movement.They started widespread agitation, violence
and boycott of foreign goods. The main reason of Hindu protest was that they had loosened grip over the
eastern parts.
Explain the Cabinet Mission Plan and reaction of the political parties.
ANS: The British Cabinet Mission of 1946 to India aimed to discuss and plan for the transfer of power
from the British Raj to Indian leadership, providing India with independence under Dominion status in
the Commonwealth of Nations. Formulated at the initiative of Clement Attlee, thePrime Minister of the
United Kingdom, the mission consisted of Lord Pethick-Lawrence, the Secretary of State for India, Sir
Stafford Cripps, President of the Board of Trade, and A. V. Alexander, the First Lord of the
Admiralty. Lord Wavell, the Viceroy of India, did not participate. TheMission's purpose was:
1. Hold preparatory discussions with elected representatives of British India and the Indian states in order
to secure agreement as to the method of framing the constitution.
2. Set up a constitution body.
3. Set up an Executive Council with the support of the main Indian parties.
The approval of the plans would determine the composition of the new government. The Congress
Working Committee had initially approved the plan. However, on 10 July, Jawaharlal Nehru, who later
became the first prime minister of India, held a press conference in Bombaydeclaring that
the Congress had agreed only to participate in the Constituent Assembly and "regards itself free to change
or modify the Cabinet Mission Plan as it thought best."[2] The Congress ruled out the June 16 plan, seeing
it as the division of India into small states[citation needed]. Moreover,the Congress was a Centralist party.
Intellectuals like Kanji Dawarkadas criticized the Cabinet Plan. Congress was
against decentralization and it had been under pressure from Indian capitalists who wanted a
strong Center. The plan's strongest opponent was the principal Indian leader Mohandas Gandhi, due to the
reason that the territories had been grouped together on the basis of religion[citation needed].
The Muslim League gave its approval to the plan. There was an impression that the Congress also had
accepted the scheme and the Plan would be the basis of the future constitution of India[citation needed]. Jinnah,
in his speech to the League Council, clearly stated that he recommended acceptance only because nothing
better could be obtained[citation needed]. However, on declaration from the Congress President that the
Congress could change the scheme through its majority in the Constituent Assembly, this meant that the
minorities would be placed at the mercy of the majority. The Muslim League Council met at Bombay on
27 July. "Mr. Jinnah in his opening speech reiterated the demand for Pakistan as the only course left open
to the Muslim League. After three days' discussion, the Council passed a resolution rejecting the Cabinet
Mission Plan.

Comment on the importance of Education and why Pakistan’s position is low down in Literacy?
Importance of Education:
Education is a key to development for individual, society and state. It shapes natural qualities and talents
of the individuals. It has positive relevance to family and society. It also confers citizens’ confidence to
deal with environment, a sense of purpose. Education provides a goal orientation and is helpful to others
by educating them. Education provides entitlement to job and professions. It gives effective tanning to the
citizens about their rights and duties. It plays a more constructive role in character building of the person
and in turn society as a whole. Education should be integrated to nation building and should be able to
transmit the primary values. Education should be responsible for the formation of attitude.
It should transmit socialization among individuals. Education system is designed according to the
ideology of the state and its identity. Education is the indicator of socio-economic development. For the
real progress proper educational facilities should be provided. Literacy rate should be enhanced. Trained
and qualified human power can make a nation success. Only such educated people can better be equipped
to deal with changing situations and challenges of the time. Education provides better understanding of
international environment that affects all of us. Islam asks Muslims to get education. Other religions also
value education. Resource allocation for education is far from satisfactory. It is much less than what a
large number of countries spend on education, especially those having developed after World War II.
Most of these allocations go to salaries and administration. Fewer amounts are given for infrastructure,
facilities of research and development.
Low Literacy:
In Pakistan literacy rate is 46 per cent. While meaningful literacy is far less. Female literacy is lower. In
rural areas literacy is much low.

Describe the Background of the Constitution of 1962?

Background Military took over on 7 October 1958 and consequently Ayub Khan became Chief Martial
Law Administrator. One major task was to frame a new Constitution. The administration was critical of
Parliamentary system because it caused instability in the past. They sought stability of the nation in the
gradual development of democracy.
What were the main constitutional issues which Pakistan had to face at the beginning?
Major Issues
The major issues, the first constituent assembly faced, were about:
1. Federalism
2. Representation
3. Separate or Joint Electorate
4. The National Language Issue
5. Parliamentary or Presidential system
6. The Islamic or Secular State
1: Federalism
There was consensus on federalism but yet there were many issues to be settled. The main was
that Pakistan consisted of two territorial parts,East Pakistan (with more population, less territory but
administratively one unit) and West Pakistan (administratively 4 units). Federalism is meant to
accommodate such kind of diversity maintaining the unity of the state or country. Division of power: It
was the most difficult question that how the power would be divided between Centre and the Provinces.
The heritage of British rule gave the tradition of a Strong Centre. But the provinces were demanding more
Autonomy and Provincial Rights. In the Interim Constitution and the 1956 Constitution tradition of strong
centre continued.
2: Representation
Representation at the federal level was another conflicting issue because East Pakistan and West
Pakistan were different in population and size. On the other hand there was diversity in Western part
of Pakistan. The provinces ofWest Pakistan were also different in population and size. All of them were
sensitive to their representation and provincial autonomy. To have a Standard Formula for the
representation of units and population the Constituent Assembly (CA) formed a Basic Principle
Committee (BPC) on March 12, 1949. The primary task of this committee was to frame a set of basic
principles for the future constitution of Pakistan.

East: decided for Joint Electorate.
West: Separate electorate.
1957: Joint Electorate was adopted for allPakistan by the National Assembly.
4: The National Language Issue
Pre-independence: Muslim elite all over Indiaadopted Urdu. In 1948 Jinnah declared that Urdu would be
the national language but provinces could use their languages. Opposition against Urdu was there in East
Bengal. This became more pronounced after the death of Jinnah as controversies erupted on constitution
making. Language Movement started in East
Pakistan February, 1952.
There was a complaint about anti Bengali language attitude of the federal government. Two-language
formula was adopted in 1954. Since 1973 Urdu was adopted as national language along with the support
for development of regional languages.
5: Parliamentary or Presidential
There was a consensus for parliamentary system. But there was a limited demand for presidential system.
Supporters of Presidential system became dominant after the 1958 military takeover. The 1962
Constitution was a Presidential constitution.
7: The Islamic or Secular State

Give details about the 1977 Elections and Agitation
1977 Elections and Agitation:
As a result of elections of 1977 PPP won the elections. But joint opposition blamed a mass rigging in the
election results. They demanded fresh elections. Bhutto initially was stubborn but later showed inclination
to compromise but history has taken a U-turn. As he refused to negotiate the elected majority party in
1971, now opposition refused to compromise and took the case to the streets. Urban shopkeepers,
businessmen, students, women and even the intelligentsia joined hands against the government. The result
was the third Martial Law and end of democracy.
