MUSLIM LEAGUE AND COMMUNAL POLITICS IN SOUTH-EAST PUNJAB

Any constitution that might be built, would prove disastrous, destructive and harmful not only to the Muslims but to the British and Hindus also. For the peace and happiness of the people of this subcontinent, the only course was to separate homelands by dividing India into two autonomous national states.[i] He further stated that the Hindus and Muslims had different religious philosophies, social customs and literature. "They neither inter-marry nor dine together, and indeed they belong to two different civilizations which were based on conflicting ideas and conceptions." Their views on life were different. It was quite clear that Hindus and Muslims derived their inspiration from different source of history. They had different epics, episode and their heros were different.[ii]
