History Of Pakistan

The area constituting Pakistan was historically a part of the British Indian Empire throughout much of the nineteenth
The East India Company begun their trade in colonial India in the 17th century, and the company rule started from 1757
when they won the Battle of Plassey.[5] Following the Indian Rebellion of 1857,
the Government of India Act 1858 led to the British Crown assuming direct control over much of the Indian subcontinent.
All-India Muslim League was founded by the All India Muhammadan Educational
Conference at Dhaka, in 1906, in the context of the circumstances that were generated over the division of Bengal in 1905
and the party aimed at creation of a separate Muslim state. The period after World War I was marked by British reforms
such as the Montagu-ford Reforms, but it also witnessed the enactment of the repressive Rowlatt Act and strident calls for
self-rule by Indian activists. The widespread discontent of this period crystallized into nationwide non-violent movements
of non-cooperation and civil disobedienc .The idea for a separate Muslim state in the northwest regions of South Asia was
introduced by Allama Iqbal in his speech as the President of the Muslim League in December 1930.[8] Three years later,
the name of "Pakistan" as a separate state was proposed in a declaration made by Chaudhary Rahmat Ali, in the form of
an acronym. It was to comprise the five "northern units " of Punjab, Afghania (erstwhile North-West Frontier Province),
Kashmir, Sindh, and Baluchistan. Like Iqbal, Bengal was left out of the proposal made by Rehmat Ali.
