Options- A. Khan Abdul Ghaffar Khan
- B. Sikandar Hayat Khan
- C. Maulana Abul Kalam Azad
- D. Rafi Ahmed Kidwai
- Correct Answer
- Sikandar Hayat Khan
Explanation?Pakistan would mean a massacre,? the Premier of Punjab Sir Sikandar Hyat Khan predicted to the distinguished civilian Penderel Moon as early as in October 1938 ( Divide and Quit, page 20). That was well before the Muslim League adopted the Pakistan resolution on March 23, 1940, in Lahore, radically altering Sir Sikandar's draft just 24 hours before it was passed. He repudiated it because it dropped the organic linkbetween the two parts of India, which he had provided. He told the Punjab Legislative Assembly, on March 11, 1941, ?We do not ask for freedom that there may be Muslim Raj here and Hindu Raj elsewhere. If that is what Pakistan means I will have nothing to do with it.?
