Aims & objectives of the creation of Pakistan

Pakistan came into being on 14th August 1947. The Muslims of India had scarifies
there wealth honor & life to make a Pakistan reality. Struggle for attainment of
Pakistan started very after the war of independence 1857.
Aims & Objectives of the Creation of Pakistan
After the war of Independence the Muslims were greatly pressed by the Hindus as
well as the British. Social, political and economic conditions of the Muslims were
totally changed. That is why they demanded for a separate state of their own.
Following were the Aims & Objectives that led to the creation of Pakistan.
1. Setting up of a Free Islamic Society:
The main objective of the creation of Pakistan was to establish a free Islamic
Society having its own identity and government, practicing its own social
principles and religion and inviting the Muslims of the world, particularly and
others generally to adopt the Islamic way of life.
2. Protection from Communal Riots:
The communal Riots on every other day made it clear that the Hindus could
monopolies the politics after the departure of The British. The lives of Muslims
could never be safe in the united India. The Hindu organizations had again and
again asserted that Hindu Raj would be imposed on India after the independence.
So to get rid of these atrocities the Muslims demanded their separate state.
3. Social& Political Development of Muslims:
After the war of Independence 1857, the social environment was totally changed.
The Muslims were scared of the caste system and other discriminations. They
could enjoy neither political nor social liberties; therefore, they preferred to have a
separate homeland in which they could live according to the teachings of Islam.
4. Protection of Muslim Language
The Hindus did the best to replace Urdu by Hindi. But they did not succeed during
British period. If South Asia had got freedom without partition, the Hindu majority
could very easily declare Hindi, the official and national language. The Hindu
government could wipe out all signs of Muslim culture; therefore, the Muslims had
no choice except putting a demand for Pakistan.
5. Protection of Two Nation Theory:
The Muslims claimed separate nationhood for themselves and they were
determined to maintain a separate entity for all times to come. The Muslims
believe in separate religion, practice different traditions, and have their own history
and their cultural heritage. Their claim was absolutely true. It was their right to
keep their separate entity alive and to enjoy all human rights. This was not possible
in undivided India.
6. Establishment of Islamic State:
Islam is a complete code of life. The Muslims wanted to implement the system
practically. This could not be attained in United India therefore; they passed a
resolution and demanded an Islamic state in the North East and North West of
South Asia.
7. Setting up of True Islamic Society:
Islam upholds the golden principles of freedom, justice, brotherhood and equality
but living for centuries with the Hindu community, the Muslims were gradually
ignoring, consciously or unconsciously, these principles. Islam gives guidance for
individual as well as collective life. It has its own principles such as ban on usury,
gambling, to refrain from all unlawful means of income and expenditure. Again
extravagance is regarded devilish. The rights of the neighbors are stressed which
results in social security to all. God-fearing and belief in the Hereafter are the basis
for the social life of the Muslims.
8. Dream of Muslims to get freedom:
Due to the ill treatment of Hindus and British the Muslims also wanted to get
freedom and established their own Govt. in the sub-continent because the freedom
is right of every nation and the country. For this reason they demanded Pakistan.
09. To get rid of the British:
After the war of independence (1857), the British maltreated the Muslims. Political
rights of the Muslims were snatched. Doors of new jobs were closed and also the
Muslims were deprived of their jobs and were deprived of their property (estates).
There was no social status for the Muslims. So they demanded separate homeland.
10. Attainment of Peaceful Atmosphere:
After the formation of Mahasabha and its entrance into politics, prejudiced
movements like Shuddhi and Sangthan were born. Riots occurred here and there.
They extinguished the fire of revenge by dishonoring the mosques or attacking
Moharram processions. The daily increase in riots had given a warning to the
Muslims. It is rightly remarked that the last 25 years were spent in Hindu-Muslim
civil war. Its cure was no other than the creation of Pakistan in the Muslim
majority provinces so that the daily occurrences of riots may come to an end. The
Muslims may enjoy the peaceful conditions in a separate state of their own.
11. Islamic Culture and Civilization:
Success of congress in elections of 1937 and capturing the leadership was an
enough proof that the Hindus wanted to demolish Muslim civilization and culture.
Every now and then new intrigues were hatched to destroy the Muslim’s religious
values. The breeding of cows and to worship them was the reckoned culture of
Hindustan. The Hindu community was planning to prevail upon Muslims in their
customs and ceremonies. The Muslim ceremonies were interfered whereas the
Hindu festivals were celebrated with great pomp and show. In short, if India were
not divided, this country would have become a pure Hindu State and the next
generation of Muslims would have been Muslim only by name, but it would have
been impossible for the Muslims to follow Islam practically.
12. Deliverance from Economic Exploitation:
The Hindus community was not contented with the political rule; it was
determined to worsen the condition of the minorities economically. But especially
they wanted to take revenge from the Muslims for their past defeats. Under the
patronage of the English, the Hindus were made the owners of the land. They were
encouraged in trade and commerce also. The Muslims had seen this state of affairs
for years till they reached the conclusion that where the problems were settled by
the votes of majority, it was hardly possible to live along with the prejudiced and
cruel Hindu majority. So there was no room left for the Muslims except demanding
a separate independent homeland, for themselves.
