‘1947 partition weakened Muslims’: Altaf Hussain - Naveed Yaseen - 06-29-2009 06:58 AM
LAHORE: MQM chief Altaf Hussain said on Sunday that the partition of the Subcontinent in 1947 weakened the Muslims as it divided their power. In an interview with Najam Sethi on Dunya News, Altaf said the partition harmed the Muslims, as a result of the formation of India, Pakistan and Bangladesh, and divided their power into three parts. He said there would have been no partition had the Congress accepted the Quaid-e-Azam’s 14 points. He said few people knew that even Allama Iqbal had not demanded the establishment of Pakistan in his famous Allahabad address in 1930. “He had in fact demanded the creation of Muslim states in the Muslim majority areas,” he said, adding that Iqbal son Justice ® Javed Iqbal could confirm this. daily times monitor
