"Not all Muslims supported the demand for separate electorates". Justify the statement from finding out the personality who did not agree?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 3
The correct answer is Option (3) → Begum Aizaas Rasul
Not all Muslims supported the demand for separate electorates. Begum Aizaas Rasul, for instance, felt that separate electorates were selfdestructive since they isolated the minorities from the majority. By 1949, most Muslim members of the Constituent Assembly were agreed that separate electorates were against the interests of the minorities. Instead Muslims needed to take an active part in the democratic process to ensure that they had a decisive voice in the political system.
