@ Farooq Basir,
well another factor of poor performance of Muslim League in elections of 1937 was lack of awareness of Muslim Community. They were living together with the Hindus and were not aware of gravity of atrocities by Hindus so they voted for Congress and other Muslim conferences. After elections, Congress made ministries/government in different provinces and they started their religious bigotry, atrocities and communal discrimination e.g. Wardha Scheme, Bande Matram etc., which alarmed the Muslims and they started getting confidence in sayings of leadership of Muslim League. You would recall that the major support for Muslim League was from Muslim minority provinces because they had felt the atrocities of Hindus themselves and they got the view that if Congress is getting independence from British thn they would be inflicting maximum loss to Muslims.
Simultaneously the Muslim League leadership organized itself and worked hard to launch Pakistan Agenda based on the concept of two nation theory
@ Mumtaz
Well brother in my thinking ideology of Pakistan remained same before and after freedom. As regards Quaid's speech that you are free, you are free to go to your temples, you are free to go to your mosques, the true essence of Islam does not compel non-Muslims to be Muslims or stop their religious practices. In first Islamic state of Madina, the non-Muslims were very much allowed to practice their religion and were given the status of Zimmi. Quaid-e-Azam traced the same thing by saying that the non-Muslims are free to go to their religious places and Quaid wanted to make an egalitarian society, where everybody would be treated equally in the eyes of law. Yes there is no theocracy in Pakistan because majority of Mulas dont profess true essence of Islam.....
Ideology of Pakistan is to be preserved by the vary people of Pakistan (the Pakistanis).....
