Muslims there were a minority, yet their Elite had a disproportionate amount of representaion in the civil service and overall influence. The idea of Pakistan began from this part of Northern India, from the Elite of this region to popular following and then onwards to the rest of India. The movement was led by a lawyer named Muhammad Ali Jinnah, along with such leaders as Allama Iqbal, Liaqat Ali Khan, Fatima Jinnah, Huseyn Shaheed Suhrawardy, A.K. Fazlul Huq, and Sardar Abdur Rab Nishtar, Sir Ziauddin Ahmed among the many others. |
| has gloss | eng: The Pakistan Movement (also called Tehrik-e-Pakistan, Urdu: تحریک پاکستان) was a political movement which was active during the first half of the 20th century. At that time, British India belonged to Great Britain. In British India, most people were Hindu, and only very few were Muslim. The people who made the movement feared they would lose their liberty when the English left. They therefore wanted to create a separate state. This struggle was led by the Muslim League and resulted in the partition of the British Empire in India. The movement was led by Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah. Other important leaders were Allama Iqbal, Nawabzada Liaquat Ali Khan, Fatimah Jinnah, Huseyn Shaheed Suhrawardy, A.K. Fazlul Huq, and Sardar Abdur Rab Nishtar. |
