Who composed "Sare Jahan Se Achha Hindustan Hamara"? |
Rabindranath Tagore Bankim Chandra Chatterjee Mohammad lqbal Anand Mohan Bose |
Mohammad lqbal |
The correct answer is Option (3) → Mohammad lqbal The origins of the Pakistan demand have also been traced back to the Urdu poet Mohammad Iqbal, the writer of “Sare Jahan Se Achha Hindustan Hamara”. In his presidential address to the Muslim League in 1930, the poet spoke of a need for a “NorthWest Indian Muslim state”. Iqbal, however, was not visualising the emergence of a new country in that speech but a reorganisation of Muslim-majority areas in north-western India into an autonomous unit within a single, loosely structured Indian federation. |
