8. Why was the end of the Congress government termed a 'Day of Deliverance?

9. What was the importance of the Pirpur Report?

10. Explain how Mr Jinnah reorganized the Muslim League. What were the results?​

Answer 1

1)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.

2)The 1938 Pirpur Report brought out by the League listed cruelties suffered by Muslims in the Congress-ruled provinces. It tried to project a pro-Hindu stance and anti-Muslim bias in them. This report became an important document used to demand and justify the partition of the country.

3)After the partition of India in 1947, the All-India Muslim League was disbanded. It was succeeded by Indian Union Muslim League in the new India. Indian Union Muslim League contests Indian General Elections under the Indian Constitution. The party has always had a constant, if small presence, in the Indian Parliament.
