3 What was the importance of the Pirpur report?
Answers
The "Day of Deliverance" (Urdu: یوم نجات, romanized: Youm-e-Nijat) was a celebration day marked by the All-India Muslim League and others on 22 December 1939 during the Indian independence movement. It was led by Muslim League president Muhammad Ali Jinnah, and intended to rejoice the resignation of all members of the rival Congress party from provincial and central offices in protest over their not having been consulted over the decision to enter World War II alongside Britain.
Answer:
Concept:
Historical context The Muslim League attempted to raise awareness of the plight of Muslims and Muslim groups in Indian states governed by Congress governments in 1938 and 1939; this effort resulted in publications like the PIRPUR REPORT: 1938, Muslim sufferings under The Congress rule by A. K.
Explanation:
The Muslim League commemorated the "Day of Deliverance" on December 22, 1939, when members of the Congress Party who served in the national and provincial governments resigned in large numbers in protest of the Viceroy's decision to enlist India in the Second World War without properly consulting Indians.
Background of the Day of Deliverance of the Muslim League:
India and Britain were at war with Nazi Germany during the Second World War, according to a declaration made on September 3 by the viceroy at the time, Lord Linlithgow.
The Indian National Congress, the country's then-dominant political party (founded on December 28, 1885), protested the viceroy's choice since it was made without consulting Indians.
After the 1937 elections, Congress was in charge of seven British Indian provinces. The Muslim League, which was established on December 30, 1906, could only take power in one province at the time.
The League made an effort to highlight the "plight" of Muslims living under Congress's rule in order to convey an unfavorable image of Congress.
