• Such incidents showed that both people have different cultural values and religions.
• They cannot live together in a single country which led to the creation of Pakistan.

Answer 2

There were several causes responsible for the demand of Pakistan

Explanation:

• The Muslims did not appreciate the Mass Contact Movement initiated by Congress, led by Pt. Nehru. Another of the movement 's goals was to add the Muslims to the Congress. That was considered a threat to the very existence of the Muslim League
• Then in Muslim society, the middle classes felt they were unable to compete in the United India with the Hindus and that the future of them had only been set in a separate Muslim state where economic and cultural progress was possible.
• Many of them argued that their longevity in India would potentially jeopardize their religion. It was also hoped that Pakistan creation could be a successful jumping ground for pan-Islamism and thus Muslims could be relieved of foreign yoke.
• This provided the Orthodox Muslims a strong reason and they took advantage of the situation.  They said a day was not far from where the Hindus would be dominating India and where the Muslims would still be living in everlasting subordination and slavery.
• The key goal of the Muslim League of All India was to make demands of the Muslims of India for their independent government. So they started endorsing two nation  theory for this demand
• The basic idea behind the two-nation principle was Muslims and Hindus were two independent nations, so it was the rights of  Muslims that they have their own nation in the Muslims majority areas of subcontinent where they could live according to Islam 's glorious teachings. This theory was clearly sufficient to contribute to two separate political philosophies that was responsible for the partition of the Subcontinent.
