@devilish_angel

you remmber jinnah’s 14 points

here are few:

All the people should be aware of their rights all the people have the freedom of religion freedom of sense.

All legislatures in the country and other elected bodies shall be constituted on the definite principle of adequate and effective representation of minorities in every province without reducing the majority in any province to a minority or even equality.

Full religious liberty, i.e. liberty of belief, worship and observance, propaganda, association and education, shall be guaranteed to all communities.

These demands were rejected by the Congress Party.

IMO, these 3 points seem to be rather satisfactory on the surface. So what was congress’s objection to these 3 points ? Of course there r certain points in Jinnah’s 14 points which seems unachievable or contradictory or atleast I did not understand them in context and I had pointed it out in the other thread.
