Muslim League's Lahore Resolution

The Lahore Resolution, passed by the Muslim League in March 1940, was a formal statement advocating for the political rights and independence of Muslims in British India. It called for the creation of separate Muslim-majority states or regions, recognizing their distinct cultural and religious identity. This resolution marked a turning point, as it laid the groundwork for the demand for a separate homeland, which eventually led to the creation of Pakistan in 1947. Essentially, it was a declaration that Muslims needed their own nation to safeguard their interests and way of life.
