Comparison between nehru and 14 points:
Muslims and hindus could not settle any dispute because of one thing, congress always spoke on the behalf of all indians as a whole, while the muslims of india always regarede themselves as a separate national and cultural entity. Its demand and aspirations differed from those of the congress.
1:
In order to develope a harmonious look, both the congress and muslims tried to compromise but they always failed.the recommendations in nehru report were in the benefit of the majority.
2:
It also rejected weightage for minorities because it thought that minority question is a british creation and would disappointed as india would attained dominion status, while jinnah viewed that minorty question is real and based upon fundamental, political difference.
3:
Nehru report rejected muslim demand for separate electorates on the ground that all indians belonging to one nation, while it was not the case muslims regarded themselves a separate national entity from non-muslims.that was why jinnah supported muslim separate electorate.
4:
According to nehru report, muslims could enjoy one-fourth of the representation in the central legislature.while jinnah recommended that in central legislature muslims representation should not be less than one-third.
5:
Moreover, nehru report favoured that autonomy should in thew centre while jinnah recommended that uniform measure of autonomy shall be granted to all provinces.
5:
Nehru report was advocating the independence of whole india which meant for all allies communities alike but jinnah hold that independence as visualised by the congress is dominion status in british commonwealth of nations which in practice implies the rule of minority
6:
Nehru refused to include in a provincial cabinet any musllim while jinnnah with his league insisted that muslim interests can best be defended by a minister commanding the confidence of the muslim majority in his provincial legislature.
7:
Nehru report wished to enforced parliamentary system of government at the centre without safeguarding muslim interests while jinnah viewed this system not suited to the genius of india and already proved to be failure in the congress governed provinces were the muslim minortiy were suppressed and not protected.
8:
The nehru report demanded full independence and majority rule and refused to discuss communal issue while jinnah`s 14 points refused to accept government at the center.
The main difference and pivot of the whole question is that the congress while claiming for itself the right to represt the whole of india denies the muslim league the right to speak, on behalf of indian muslims.
