Jinnah's Fourteen Points

Jinnah's Fourteen Points, presented in 1929 by Muhammad Ali Jinnah, were demands aimed at protecting Muslim rights and ensuring fair treatment within India. They called for equal political representation, protection of minority rights, and safeguards for cultural and religious freedoms. The points emphasized that Muslims should not be treated as a minority or be forced to accept policies against their interests, advocating for independence and self-identity within a united India. These proposals aimed to address Muslim concerns amid growing tensions with Hindus and Indians pushing for a unified nation, ultimately laying ground for the creation of Pakistan.
