...The All-India Muslim League (, ), founded at Dhaka, Bengal, in 1906, was a political party in British India that played a role in the Indian independence movement and developed into the driving force behind the creation of Pakistan as a Muslim state on the Indian subcontinent.Jalal, Ayesha (1994) The Sole Spokesman: Jinnah, the Muslim League and the Demand for Pakistan. Cambridge University Press. ISBN 978-0521458504 After the independence of India and Pakistan, the League continued as a minor party in India, especially in Kerala, where it is often in government within a coalition with others. In Pakistan, the League formed the country's first government, but disintegrated during the 1950s following an army coup. One or more factions of the Muslim League have been in power in most of the civilian governments of Pakistan since 1947. In Bangladesh, the party was revived in 1976 and won 14 seats in 1979 parliamentary election. Since then it eventually became a party of insignificant importance. Read full entry

What was the role of the all |

The web site "muslimleague.uchicago.edu/Wel come.html" gives: "In December of 1906, a group of nationalist Muslim leaders gathered in Dhaka, India and proposed a Muslim political association with three aims: to protect Muslim interests, to counter Congress influences, and to support the British administration. The first meeting of this new entity, named the All India Muslim League [AIML], was held in Karachi on December 20th, 1907. The next hundred years of the AIML, stretching from Dhaka to Karachi, can only be described as tumultuous. While the party and its ideologies gained significance in the Indian nationalist scene, it also underwent various evolutions as it struggled to represent the often dueling agendas and hopes for the millions of Muslims in India. The importance of the AIML to the anti-colonial movement in India is thus readily apparent. It trained and groomed generations of Muslim leaders on local, national and international scales as it played pivotal roles in the two partitions of India and the creation of Pakistan and Bangladesh. In that regard, no history of nationalism in India can be written without due attention to the Muslim League. However, the history of AIML is of even more relevance in today's world. The oft-heard refrain about the lack of democracy and democratic practices in the Muslim world fails utterly to account for institutions like the Muslim League—an erasure which deserves a sustained critique through renewed attention to this organization's history of charted and documented practice of Muslim democracy in India."

I may be setting a precedent here, but the All India Muslim League was founded in1906 in Karachi. After Partition the first President of Pakistan was Iskander Mirza in 1958. Jinnah was against partition and believed that the whole of the Indian sub-continent could live together regardless of religion. |
