<br />
Dear Lord Linlithgow,<br />
The  best thing to be said about Jinnah's tour in the Punjab is that it has  come to an end; it was throughout a success for the Qaid-e-Azam, but it  has certainly not tended to improve communal relations. At the beginning  of his crusade at Jullundur  Jinnah made a pointed attack on the author of a certain new formula  devised for the solution of India's difficulties; he was obviously  referring to Sikander's "partition scheme" [<i>see below-blogger</i>], though he did not mention the Premier by name. <br />
<br />
A  day or two later Sikander found it expedient to attend the Muslim  League meeting in Lyallpur and to make his obeisance to the Qaid-e-Azam.  In return for this Jinnah was kind enough to express his approval of  the Premier and to say that at Jullunder he had not been alluding to  Sikander's formula, which he had not had time to study. Sikander was  undoubtedly in an embarrassing position and he could scarcely have been  expected to risk an open rupture with Jinnah, but in proclaiming that he  saw eye to eye with the champion of "Pakistan" he has to a considerable  extent weakened the Baldev Singh-Sikander Pact and undermined whatever  confidence other communities have reposed in his assurances. <br />
<br />
The  Sikhs in particular are feeling injured and bewildered. Master Tara  Singh has been freely criticising both Jinnah and Sikander. Giani Kartar  Singh appears to be still groping for some means to satisfy the  separatist ambitions of his community. In a speech at Nankana he made  both to say that the Sikhs would work for the unity of India as a whole,  but should aim at an appropriate partition of the Punjab. One of the  suggestions is that this partition should be based not on population,  but on landed interests, as this would lead to results more favourable  to the Sikhs. <br />
<br />
Among the Muslims there is a definitely increasing  number shouting for "Pakistan", without for the most part any serious  attempt at analysing what it means. The general atmosphere is more  uneasy than it was and it looks as if cleavages would grow more  pronounced.<br />
<br />
Another Communal Reunion Party took place yesterday  and I was among those present. This time the occasion was the  anniversary of Guru Nanak's birthday and the host was Baldev Singh, who  showed up well throughout and seems to be gaining self-assurance. The  usual speeches were made and everyone appeared very friendly, but there  was a certain air of unreality about the proceedings.<br />

<br />
Dear Lord Linlithgow,<br />
Your  Excellency will be interested in seeing the enclosed note which  Sikander gave me just before we left Simla, setting forth his tentative  formula for the solution of the communal problem. The proposal amounts,  as you will see, to a scheme that in absence of a 75 per cent. majority  of members of the Punjab Legislative Assembly in favour of either  accession or non-accession  to the Indian Federation, the Muslim community should by means of a  referendum be given an opportunity of deciding on non-accession and  that, if they so decide, the non-Muslim portions of the Punjab should by  a similar referendum be accorded the right to cut themselves adrift  from the Province as constituted at present. <br />
<br />
If it actually came  to the point of non-Muslims deciding to break adrift, this would mean  that, assuming the unit concerned to be a district, the Ambala Division  and a large part of the Jullunder Division and also the Amritsar  District would cease to belong to the Punjab. If a smaller unity such as  a tahsil, as is, I gather, Sikander's idea, is taken, at least a very  large part of the areas I have mentioned and possibly certain others  would disappear from the Province. In either case a disastrous  dismemberment of the Punjab would be involved. The underlying idea of  the scheme is therefore to bring it home to all reasonably-minded men  that Pakistan should it ever eventuate, would smash the Province as it  now exists.<br />
<br />
Sikander's position is that he has now succeeded in  bringing about a rapprochement with the Sikhs, he has in hand a proposal  for placating the urban population by means of further concessions  relating to the Sales Tax Act, and the only other remaining menace which  he fears as being likely to impede the War effort of the Province is  the controversy for and against  Pakistan. He believes that his present formula has a good chance of  relegating the Pakistan issue to the background till the War is over;  the action for  which the formula provides would not come into operation  until the Central constitutional issue has been decided; Sikander hopes  that during the next few years his formula will have the effect of  laying the Pakistan controversy to rest.<br />
<br />
Sikander has asked me to  let you know what his intentions are, so that you may judge, before he  takes action, whether the move which he now contemplates would be likely  to prove an embarrassment in the light of the all-India political  situation. <br />
<br />
Should  you see no objection to his proceeding with his plan, he would in the  first instance consult the Muslim members of his party, after that he  would lay the proposal before the Sikh members of the party, then he  would consult the pary as a whole and, if the the reactions remain  favourable, the Provincial Assembly would be invited to pass a  resolution endorsing the scheme.<br />
<br />
The formula evolved by Sikander appears to me, as I have told him, to have much to commend it so far as those who are inclined  to be reasonable and fair-minded are concerned. Unfortunately the  proportion of reasonable men is lamentably low, and I am very doubtful  as to the effect which the scheme is likely to produce on Jinnah.  Sikander agrees with me that Jinnah's personal feelings will be  seriously offended, because the scheme does not emanate from himself as  the head of the Muslim League. I am inclined to think that, apart from  his personal feelings, Jinnah may be genuinely opposed to the whole idea  as amounting in effect to an exposure of the weakness of Pakistan.  Whether Jinnah genuinely believes in Pakistan as a practical proposition  may be open to doubt; but he appears to be consistently reluctant to  explain its detailed workings, and the term "Pakistan" has become so  sacred and mystic that any attempt to analyse and define its  consequences would appear to be little short of profanity. <br />
<br />
Sikander  is disposed to the view that Jinnah will not oppose the scheme, as he  is already committed to the principle of self-determination; I doubt  this personally, since many people, like for instance the inhabitants of  southern Ireland, are liable to hold inconsistent opinions as regards  the doctrine of self-determination when applied to themselves and when  applied to others. Sikander also thinks that Jinnah may be inclined to  regard the scheme as indicating that Pakistan is thereby proved to be a  practical proposition in regard to one of the most vital and important  parts of India, thus strengthening Jinnah's chances of pressing for a  high proportion of Muslim representation at the Centre. <br />
<br />
Here  again I have my doubts; it appears to me not unlikely that Jinnah may  look upon this exposure as a detraction from the value of the Pakistan  bogey designed for the terrorisation of Congress and the British  Government. There would seem to be a distinct possibility that Jinnah  may raise the cry that Sikander's formula places Islam in danger and  that confusion may become worse confounded. But I must admit that  Sikander knows Jinnah a great deal better than I do, and I can make no  kind of pretence to be able to fathom the workings of Jinnah's mind. If  Sikander's plan of campaign is carried out, Jinnah will presumably come  to know, through the Nawab of Mamdot(the head the the Provincial Muslim  League) or through other informants, what is afoot as soon as the Muslim  members of the Unionist Party have been approached; it is <br />
difficult to say in this event how long it would take him to make this reactions plain. <br />
<br />
I  shall be grateful if Your Excellency will be good enough, as soon as  you conveniently can, to let me know whether you would prefer Sikander  to proceed with his intentions or to hold his hand. <br />
        <br />
Yours sincerely,     <br />
 B.J. GLANCY<br />

<b>Enclosure to No. 243</b><br />
<br />
A TENTATIVE FORMULA FOR SOLVING THE COMMUNAL PROBLEM<br />
<br />
(a)  If not less than 75 per cent. of the total strength of the elected  members of the Punjab Legislative Assembly pass a resolution either in  favour of or against non-accession to the Indian Federation, that  verdict shall be regarded by all the communities of the Punjab as final  and binding.<br />
<br />
(b) If neither a resolution advocating nor a resolution negativing non-accession is moved, or if such resolution, when moved,  fails to be passed by majority indicated in (a) above, but a demand for  non-accession continues, then the wishes of the Muslim community as a  whole shall be ascertained by means of a referendum in which all the  Muslim electors on the electoral roll of the Punjab Legislative Assembly  shall have the right to vote provided such a referendum is claimed in a  formal resolution passed by the vote of not less than 60 per cent. of  the Muslim members of the Punjab Legislative Assembly.<br />
<br />
(c) If as  the result of a referendum suggested in (b) above the Muslim community  gives its verdict in favour of non-accession, Indian non-Muslims will,  for the ascertainment of the wishes of their community as a whole, have  the right to claim, whether with a view to accession to the Indian  Federation or formation of a separate sovereign State by themselves or  in mutually agreed upon combination with other contiguous territories  bordering on the east, a referendum, in which all the non-Muslim Indian  electors on the electoral roll of the Punjab Legislative Assembly shall  have the right to vote, for the separation from the present Punjab  Province of those contiguous portions of it in which non-Muslims  constitute a majority provided that such a referendum is claimed in a  formal resolution passed by the vote of not less than 60 per cent. of  the total strength of the non-Muslim Indian members of the Punjab  Legislative Assembly.<br />

Note on the proceedings of the session of the All-India Muslim League at Delhi,<br />
24 to 26 April 1943</b><br />
{Enclosed in the letter of 11 May 1943 from the Deputy Private Secretary to the Viceroy to the Private Secretary to the <br />
Secretary of State.}<br />
<br />
<br />
1.    Taken against previous reports, the proceedings of the All-India Muslim League Session have caused no surprise.   Jinnah’s  speeches both in the meetings of the Working Committee and the Subjects  Committee (held in camera) and in the Open Session have confirmed  impressions that of late his mind has been passing through a certain  process of change.  He has become more aggressive, more challenging and  more authoritative.  The reason appears to be “consciousness of power  lately acquired and of certain old injuries which can now be avenged  therewith”.<br />
<br />
It cannot be denied that he is today more powerful  than he ever has been.  Sir Sikander’s death and the consequential  disappearance  of the fear of a strong rival Muslim organization being created, the  formation of League Ministries in various Provinces,  the spinelessness  of the new Punjab Premier which circumstance has for the first time  exposed that vital part of the Pakistan organism to his direct  encroachments,  the recent successes in bye-elections and the  deterioration of the Congress power constitute a set of circumstances  which have lent an unusual lustre to Jinnah’s leadership and augmented  his strength and striking power to a degree never before attained.<br />
<br />
On the other hand four years of close study of the British attitude towards the Muslims appear to have forced on him the final  conclusion that the British are not prepared to give to the Muslims  anything material beyond the few barren references to the “greatness” of  the Muslim community with which British Statesmen have lately been  embellishing their speeches in [on?] India.  “If”, he argues, “the  Congress has gone astray, why are the British not inviting us to form a  government at the Centre?   If the Congress did not accept the Cripps  proposals,  what then has prevented the British from conceding the Muslim right to self-determination immediately and independently of the Congress?”<br />
<br />
Jinnah  was quiet so long as he lacked the power to assert himself and have  this unpromising situation altered.  But now he has developed the  necessary power and sanctions.<br />
<br />
2.     These considerations have been uppermost in Jinnah’s mind while he has  been addressing the various Committees and the Open Session.  He has  clearly indicated that he is determined no longer to take things lying  down.  As a matter of fact, he has tried to go through all the  preliminaries with which the new storm of his making must be prefaced.    He has finally warned the British;  he has expressed his profound  dissatisfaction with their attitude; he has urged Provincial Leagues now  to place themselves on a war footing in preparation for what is to  come; he has castigated the Capitalists and pampered  the masses (on whose sympathy and goodwill he has to base his future  struggle) by his references to “social justice” and “economic  reorganization”;  he has tried to impress upon the Provincial Premiers  the fact that their own future lies only in following his lead and above  all he has, in order to show his bona fides to the neutral world,  extended an open and almost final invitation to the Congress to approach  him for a settlement if it so desires.  Inevitably the next stage will  be “preparation for the inevitable struggle” and after that the  “struggle” itself.<br />
<br />
3.    In amplification of this point, Jinnah spoke to the Working Committee, where he was able to expose his mind more <br />
freely, something as follows :—<br />
<br />
“About the future, there are two sets of suggestion[s];<br />
(1)    to take direct action here and now to force Britain to accept the Muslim demands, and <br />
(2)    to wait and watch.<br />
<br />
The  extremists would wish the League forthwith to declare war on Britain,  and one of them, Mr. G.M. Syed even recommends that as a token of Muslim  resentment, members of the Working Committee should in the first  instance court imprisonment and at the same time Muslim Leaguers should  be called upon to withdraw from the War Committees. <br />
<br />
Then there  are the Moderates who maintain that the League should rest satisfied  over the formation of Ministries in Bengal, Sind, Assam and the Punjab.   No one, however, takes a balanced and realistic view of the situation.<br />
<br />
The situation is this: the Congress is determined to defy the Muslims.  But it has now paid the penalty.  It has been crushed  and it has ceased to claim that it also represents the Musalmans.  It  may not act as we would wish, but at the same time it is not longer  capable of substantially harming us.   The wounds it has received will  take some time to heal and so we are for the time being free from its  terror.  Besides it is not under the present circumstances in a position  to give us anything.  We want Pakistan and that commodity is  available not in the Congress market but in the British market.  In  other words, the Congress danger has ceased to exist for the time  being.  Let us, therefore, not bother too much about it but maintain a  watchful attitude.<br />
<br />
Then comes our second enemy, the Britisher.   How do we stand in relation to him?   Well, he is as useless for our  purpose as the Congress and he is as callous and defiant as any enemy  can be.  His anxiety throughout has been to court the Congress,  and he feels that his Imperialist interests demand that he should  permanently keep the Mussalmans down. He is gravely suspicious of the  Mussalmans.  In the rise of the Muslim power, he sees the end of his own  supremacy in the East.   Therefore, beyond soft words, the Muslims can  expect nothing from him.<br />
<br />
Nor  can the Muslims associate any high hopes with the so-called Post-war  New World Order.   The end of this war is going to leave the Britisher  so powerful that he will be able to defy the world opinion wherever it  conflicts with his own Imperialistic designs.   At the end of the war  the Britisher will be more powerful than any of his Allies.  And if he  is really powerful and if he has successfully emerged at the expense of  his Allies, why should he listen to the counsels of his weak allies or  even to the world?  He has not been fighting this war to enable  visionaries to advise him as to how he should liquidate his own power.   Therefore, neither now nor henceforth is there any possibility of the  British willingly conferring upon us the boon of Pakistan.<br />
<br />
On the  contrary, in the post-war period, there is every likelihood of a  British-Muslim conflict on a grand scale.  There are various issues  which may give rise to such a conflict, e.g., Palestine or Syria, or the  withdrawal of the British from Iran, Egypt and Baghdad.  Collectively  these issues form but part of the general world problem and when it  comes to the point, the Muslims of various countries will have to sink  or swim together.  It is impossible for British Imperialism to yield to  Muslim opinion in all these fields.  On one issue or the other, there is  bound to be an open clash.<br />
<br />
We must prepare ourselves to play our  part in that major clash.  Naturally, we shall require elaborate  arrangements.   None of the small mercies show to us recently by the  Provincial Governors in Sind or Bengal can lull us into a false sense of  security.  These favours have not been granted because the British love  us.  It is in order to expose us before the masses to whom we have been  making extravagant promises that we have been saddled with this  responsibility.   <br />
<br />
The same trick was played with the Congress  when they were given a long rope in the shape of Ministries to hang  themselves.  Had this not been done, there would have been no  Hindu-Muslim bitterness such as now exists.  If Congress had not  accepted office, it would not have lost its former hold over the  agrarian and labour populations, or its former popularity with certain  sections of Muslims.  The British have brought League Ministries into  existence so that our promises to our people are put to the test, so  that we feel and thereby stand self-condemned and so that there should  arise local and internal complications within the League.  I am  genuinely afraid that the British will not allow the League to do  anything substantial for the Muslim masses in order that the Muslim  League shall stand discredited in the eyes of its own people. Therefore,  let us not lay down our tools merely because seventeen or twenty of our  men have been provided with seats in Provincial Cabinets.  <br />
<br />
What  are we to do?  Are we to acquiesce or fight?   As far as I am  concerned, that we should fight is a foregone conclusion. All that  remains if how and when.    We cannot fight unless everything is placed  on a perfect war footing. By giving us Ministries, the enemy feels that  he has sealed our doom.  But let us seal his doom with the same  instruments.   <br />
<br />
Let us use this opportunity to consolidate our  position in the Provinces.   Let the Ministries function in such a  manner that instead of discrediting themselves, they popularize the  League among the masses from whom we are mainly to draw when we are on  the war path.  Collect funds.  Consolidate the National Guards. Consider  from what side we are going to launch our attack.  Let us exploit these  Ministries so that when we attack, the very fact that we are giving up  our seats in the Government in order to launch such an attack will add  to our prestige. <br />
<br />
When should we attack?  I think I should be  ready with my plans by about next December. [Note in original: The agent  explains that the month of December is specifically stated because in  the acceleration of League activity, December has been chosen as the  month for the annual session which is usually held during Easter.  By  December also Jinnah will have judged more definitely how the war  situation stands and the annual session will provide an opportunity for  his plans to be reviewed.   A special session will probably we convened  in the Punjab in April for further consideration.]<br />
<br />
Meanwhile,  our Provincial Ministries and Leagues will have completed the work of  organization in the Provinces and prepared themselves for the fight.   Also we will have seen how the war goes during the summer.  In December  we meet in Sind.  In April we meet in the Punjab.  There we decide when  to strike, where to strike and how to strike.<br />
<br />
Personally I think  that unless unforeseen circumstances force us to act otherwise, we  should begin our offensive immediately on the termination of the war.   Then everybody will be in a state of exhaustion and unwilling to face a  new ordeal.  It is true that the Britisher will by then be strong than  anyone else.  But that strength of his will be confined only to this  that he shall stand no dictation from his Allies who would be  comparatively weaker than him. But for that reason alone he dare not  court fresh trouble on a large scale.<br />
<br />
All we have to do to wrest  our ideal from his unwilling hands will be to create trouble on a large  scale, and thus compel him to surrender.  How did Afghanistan win her  independence?   She declared war when the World War had just ended.  England was exhausted and her pleasure-loving people would allow no new  wars to be fought.  We should, if necessary and if matters can be  delayed till then, copy Afghanistan.<br />
<br />
That, however, does not mean  that we should stay our hands, if provocation comes earlier.   We have  already killed the Congress.  Now it is the turn of the British.  The  war in my opinion may last another three years and we should use that  period to put our house in order.<br />
<br />
“In this connection, here are the few points which should be borne in mind – <br />
<br />
(1)     Now that we are in the Ministries, we should try to retain them as  long as possible so that we are able to use them  as an instrument for  consolidating our position in the Provinces for the purposes of the  impending fight.<br />
<br />
(2)    We should, if possible, avoid conflict  with the British until the arrival of the psychological moment and until  our preparations are completed.<br />
<br />
(3)    In order to popularize  the League with the masses, we should pass some good legislation in the  Provinces where Ministries are functioning.  This will stand us in good  stead in due time.<br />
<br />
(4)    Meanwhile discourage anything that will  create dissensions in the Muslim Camp.   For instance, discussion or  determination of fundamental rights for citizens of Pakistan, or  production of a cut and dried scheme for Pakistan must create  controversies and differences of opinion and should, therefore, be  avoided for the present.<br />
<br />
(5)    The fight being inevitable, we must make our preparations flawless.”<br />
<br />
It  was on account of this speech that the various resolutions of which  notice had been given were withdrawn, and the official resolution, which  was meant to serve only as a smoke-screen was passed.<br />
<br />
4.    Other features of the Session were— <br />
<br />
(1)     Rs. 29,000 were contributed by Sind members and an equal sum by Punjab  members towards the Jinnah fund.  The Punjab Premier promised, on  condition that his name would not be announced, a donation of Rs.  7,000.  Shaukat Hayat Khan offered Rs. 3,000, but his offer was not  accepted as it was thought that its acceptance at this stage, when he  had just been given the League ticket, would create misunderstandings.   Other donors were—<br />
<br />
<br />
                                                                                                                       Rs.<br />
The Nawab of Mamdot in his own name, in the name of his <br />
brother, &amp;c.    . .    . .    . .    . .    . .    . .    . .     . .    . .   . .    .  . 17,000<br />
Mir Ghulam Ali of Sind    . .    . .    . .    . .    . .   . .    . .    . .     10,000<br />
Mir Bundeh Ali of Sind    . .     . .     . .     . .     . .    . .    . .    . . 5,000<br />
K. B. Khuro of Sind    . .     . .     . .    . .     . .     . .     . .    . .    . . 5,000<br />
Sir Ghulam Husain Hidayatullah    . .     . .     . .     . .   . .   . . 1,000<br />
Gazdar, Law Minister, Sind    . .     . .     . .     . .     . .   . .    . .  1,000<br />
K. B. Jalal-ud-din of Sind    . .     . .     . .     . .     . .    . .    . .     1,000<br />
Pir Ellahi Bux    . .     . .     . .     . .    . .     . .     . .    . .    . .  . .      1,000<br />
Sir Maratab Ali of the Punjab    . .     . .     . .     . .    . .    . .     5,000<br />
Hassan Bux Shah of Sind    . .     . .     . .    . .    . .   . .    . .        2,500<br />
<br />
The rest paid lesser sums.  The total amounted to some Rs. 60,000 (approx..).  The Jinnah Fund now stands at rupees six lakhs.<br />
<br />
(2)     The Sind League quarrel, Jagirdars versus Jagirdar Tenants, had its  echoes in Delhi.  Both the parties tried to get the support of Jinnah.   With a view to win Jinnah’s sympathies, the Mirs of Sind, who are  Jagirdars, were this time unusually generous in their contributions.   G.M. Syed, the exponent of the other side is, however, unyielding.  For  the present, however, Qazi Isa and Nawab Ismail Khan are going to Sind  to look into these matters.<br />
<br />
(3)    Shaukat Hayat has been given  the League ticket for his bye-election by the Central League  Parliamentary Committee on his placing his resignation in the hands of  Jinnah to be used if and when necessary.   Meanwhile, both sides have  contracted to treat this matter with the utmost secrecy.  Shaukat Hayat  is believed to have made it clear to Jinnah that, if  it comes to a fight with the British, Jinnah must release him from his  obligations, because of his father’s long connections with the British  and because he is an Army officer, Shaukat Hayat will not go against the  British.  Jinnah has seen his point of view and agreed to let him  out when necessary.   For the present Jinnah appreciates that a  combination of Shaukat’s group with the Hindus and the Sikhs is a matter  to be reckoned with.<br />
<br />
(4)    A resolution was passed urging the termination of Martial Law in Sind and the restoration of Pir Pagaro’s property. Pir  Ellahi Bux, tried to oppose it, but was hooted down, thanks to the  excellent arrangements made by Yusif Haroon and G. M. Syed.  It is most  unlikely that the Sind League Ministry will resign on the Pir Pagaro  issue or the issue of the lifting of Martial Law.<br />
<br />
(5)     Resolutions were passed on the food problem, the South African affair,  Collective fines, Mr. Jinnah’s emergency powers, &amp;c., &amp;c.</div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>"<b>We need Pakistan, Pakistan needs us, but we don't need Pakistan double-dealing </b>and not seeing the justice in bringing Osama bin Laden to an end," said Sen. Lindsey Graham, a Republican, who pushed for the additional cut in aid.<br />
<br />
He called Pakistan "a schizophrenic ally," helping the U.S. at one turn, but then aiding the Haqqani network, which has claimed responsibility for several attacks on Americans. The group also has ties to al-Qaida and the Taliban.<br />
<br />
"It's Alice in Wonderland at best," said Sen. Patrick Leahy, a Democrat. <b>"If this is cooperation, I'd hate like hell to see opposition</b>." :khikhi:<br />
 <br />
Kabhi ao tau sahii meri kabar peh fatia paRhnay<br />
Kafin bichaa kay naa choda tau mujh ko Mir na Kehna<br />
 <br />
<br />
One of the most forceful statements came from Sen. Dianne Feinstein, a Democrat, who also serves as the chairwoman of the Senate Intelligence Committee. She pointed out that Pakistan has suffered at the hands of terrorists yet misconstrued what is treason in convicting Mr. Afridi. She also insisted that Mr. Afridi was not a spy.<br />
<br />
"This conviction says to me that al-Qaida is viewed by the court to be Pakistan," said Ms. Feinstein, who said it made her rethink U.S. assistance.<br />
 <br />
 <br />
 <br />
Bhindhuis, please discuss this.... much better than the ass rape by Jinnah that u r all still squealing about 70 years later.</div>
