To my Muslim friends and supporters, 
I would like to take this opportunity to wish you all a joyous Eid Mubarak.
I am delighted to extend my congratulations and best wishes on this occasion of Eid.
Eid is also a day of thanksgiving. The holiday marks the end of Ramadan, the holy month of fasting and is a culmination of the month-long struggle towards a higher spiritual state.
I join all New Zealand Muslims and Muslims around the globe in celebrating Eid.
New Zealand prides itself on good relations between communities and places great value on human rights and dignity. The Muslim community in New Zealand is made up of people from a vast array of ethnicities and contributes much to our society.

The Labour party is committed to promoting an environment in which the many peoples who make up New Zealand can live together in harmony.  We place great value on our relationship with the Muslim community.
Once again, on behalf of the Labour party, and myself I wish happy  Eid Mubarak and best wishes to you, your friends and families on this festive occasion.
Yours truly
Phil Twyford MP

OUR BROTHER CHINA?

No Ramadan for Uighur Muslims
05 August 2011
URUMQI – Amid fresh arrests, restrictions on fasting and prayers at mosques, Uighur Muslims are suffering under the latest episode of Chinese government crackdown on their ethnic minority in the northwestern region of Xinjiang.
“If any religious figure discusses Ramadan during the course of religious activities, or encourages people to take part, then they will lose their license to practice,” Dilxat Raxit, spokesman for the Munich-based World Uighur Congress, told Eurasia Review on Friday, August 5.
“The more serious cases will result in arrests for incitement to engage in illegal religious activity,” he said.
A day before the start of the holy fasting month for China's Muslims, at least 11 people were killed in a series of attacks in the north-western region of Xinjiang.
Chinese authorities blamed the attacks to the ethnic minority, after which the Chinese police shot dead two Muslims last Sunday.
The attacks came less than two weeks after 18 people were killed in an attack in the restive Xinjiang region.
Following the unrest, more than 100 uighurs were detained by Chinese authorities.
Most of those detained as suspects were committed Muslims who attended mosque and whose wives wore veils, residents say.
Xinjiang's capital, Urumqi, was the scene of deadly violence in July 2009 when the mainly Muslim Uighur minority vented resentment over Chinese restrictions in the region.
In the following days, mobs of angry Han took to the streets looking for revenge in the worst ethnic violence that China had seen in decades.
The unrest left nearly 200 dead and 1,700 injured, according to government figures. But Uighurs, a Turkic-speaking Muslim minority, say the toll was much higher and mainly from their community.
China’s authorities have convicted about 200 people, mostly Uighurs, over the riots and sentenced 26 of them to death.
No Fasting
Beijing slapped severe restrictions on Chinese Muslims as the holy fasting month of Ramadan started.
As for Muslim members of the government throughout Xinjiang, the government forced them to sign “letters of responsibility” promising to avoid fasting, evening prayers, or other religious activities.
“Fasting during Ramadan is a traditional ethnic custom, and they are allowed to do that,” an employee who answered the phone at a local government neighborhood committee office in the regional capital Urumqi said confirming the restrictions.
“But they aren’t allowed to hold any religious activities during Ramadan,” she added.
“Party members are not allowed to fast for Ramadan, and neither are civil servants.”
As for private companies, Uighur Muslim employees were offered lunches during fasting hours. Anyone who refuses to eat could lose their annual bonus, or even their job, Raxit added.
Officials have also targeted Muslim schoolchildren, providing them with free lunches during the fasting period.
A Uighur resident of Beijing said students under 18 are forbidden from fasting during Ramadan. Moreover, government campaigns forced restaurants in the Muslim majority region to stay open all day.
More restrictions were also imposed on people trying to attend prayers at mosques.
Everyone attending prayers has to register with their national identity card, he added. “They have to register,” he said. “[After prayers] they aren’t allowed to [congregate and] talk to each other.”
In Ramadan, adult Muslims abstain from food, drink, smoking and sex between dawn and sunset. The sick and those traveling are exempt from fasting especially if it poses health risks. Muslims dedicate their time during the holy month to be closer to Allah through prayers, self-restraint and good deeds

Zindagi kay Imtayhaan

 

السلام علیکم و رحمۃ اللہ و برکاتہ

زندگی کے امتحان بھی تو ایسے ہی ہوتے ہیں

کسی سکول میں  ایک استاد ہوتا تھا۔ بہت ہی لائق اور محنتی، پڑھانے کو فرض سمجھنے اور پڑھائی کے پیشے کا حق ادا کرنے والا۔

 

ایک بار  سہ ماہی امتحانات کے دن قریب آنے پر اُسے امتحان لینے کا ایک نیا طریقہ سوجھا۔

روایتی  تحریری یا زبانی امتحانات جیسے طریقوں سے سےہٹ  کر ایک مختلف اور اچھوتا طریقہ۔

 

امتحان والے دن اُس نے طلباء سے کہا وہ اپنے ساتھ تین مختلف قسم کے پرچے بنا کر لایا ہے۔

جو ہر قسم کی ذہنی صلاحیتوں والے طلباء کے لئے مناسب اور موزوں ہیں۔

پہلی قسم کے پرچے اُن طلباء کیلئے ہیں جنہیں اپنی  ذہانت، اپنی محنت اور اپنی صلاحیتوں پر بھروسہ ہے۔  ان پرچوں میں مشکل سوالات دیئے گئے ہیں۔

دوسرے قسم کے پرچوں میں درمیانہ قسم کے طلباء کیلئے  عام قسم کے سوالات ہیں۔ درمیانہ ذہانت  کے طلباء سے مراد ایسے طالبعلم جو پڑھتے تو ہیں مگر پڑھائی پر  اضافی  توجہ دینے اور سخت محنت سے کتراتے ہوئے۔ صرف پاس ہوجانا ہی اُن کا مطمع نظر ہوتا ہے۔

  اور  تیسری قسم کے پرچے ایسے طلباء کیلئے ہیں جو پڑھائی کے معاملے میں انتہائی کمزور ہیں۔ اپنی لا پروائی یا  دیگر غیر نصابی سرگرمیوں میں زیادہ مصروفیت کی وجہ سے وہ تعلیم کو وقت ہی نہیں دے پاتے اور نا ہی وہ کسی قسم کے سخت امتحانات یا  مشکل قسم کے سوالات کیلئے ذہنی طور تیار ہیں۔

 

طالبعلموں نے اپنے اُستاد کی بات کو بہت ہی تعجب سے سنا۔ امتحان کیلئے اس قسم کے پرچے بنائے جانا اُن کیلئے ایک  ایسا انوکھا تجربہ تھا جس سے انہیں اپنی ساری تعلیمی زندگی میں کبھی بھی واسطہ نہیں پڑا تھا۔  پرچہ شروع ہونے کی گھنٹی بجتے ہی سب طلباء اپنی اپنی پسند کے پرچے اُٹھانے کیلئے لپکے تو صورتحال کچھ اس طرح کی سامنے آئی کہ:

چند ایک طالبعلم ہی ایسے تھے جنہوں نے مشکل سوالات والے پرچے اُٹھانا پسند کیئے تھے۔ اور جتنے ایک طلباء نے مشکل پرچے اُٹھائے تھے اُن سے تھوڑے زیادہ طلباء نے درمیانی قسم کے پرچے لیئے تھے۔  جبکہ  طلباء کی اکثریت نے آسان سوالات والے پرچے لینا ہی پسند کیئے تھے۔

 

میں اپنی یہ کہانی پوری سنانے سے پہلے آپ سے ایک سوال کرنا چاہتا ہوں کہ اگر آپ بھی ان طلباء میں شامل ہوتے تو  آپ کس قسم کا پرچہ اُٹھانا پسند کرتے؟

 

امتحان شروع ہوا تو کئی ایک حیرت انگیز باتیں طلباء کے انتظار میں تھیں۔ جن طلباء نے مشکل سوالات والے پرچے اُٹھائے تھے وہ یہ دیکھ کر حیران ہو رہے تھے سوالات تو اتنے مشکل ہرگز نہیں تھے جتنے مشکل کے وہ توقع کر رہے تھے۔

جن طلباء نے درمیانی قسم کے پرچے اُٹھائے تھے انہوں نے محسوس کیا کہ وہ اکثر سوالوں کے جوابات حل کر سکتے ہیں۔ دل میں تو یہ سوچ رہے تھے کہ کاش اُنہوں نے مشکل سوالوں والے اُٹھائے ہوتے تو بھی وہ  کئی سوالات حل کر ہی ڈالتے۔

حقیقی معنوں میں صدمہ  اُن طلباء کو پہنچا تھا جو آسان سوالوں والے  پرچے  اُٹھا لائے تھے مگر حقیقت میں وہ سوالات اتنے آسان بھی نہیں جتنے آسان کی وہ توقع کر رہے تھے۔

 

استاد  خاموشی سے سب طلباء کو پرچے اُٹھا کر  جاتے اور حل کرتے وقت اُن کے چہروں پر آئے ہوئے تأثرات کو دیکھتا رہا۔ امتحان کا مقرر ہ وقت ختم ہونے پر اُس نے سب  سے  پرچے اور جوابی کاپیاں  جمع کر کے اپنے سامنے رکھیں  اور طلباء سے کہا کہ وہ ان پرچوں کے نمبر لگا کر ابھی سب کو نتیجہ سنا دے گا۔

 

طالبعلموں کو یہ بات تو کچھ زیادہ ہی عجیب لگی۔  چھٹی ہونے میں تھوڑی سی دیر رہتے وقت میں اُستاد  زیادہ سے سے زیادہ دو یا چار پرچے  چیک کر سکتا تھا ،  ساری جماعت کے پرچے چیک کرنا تو ناممکن ہی تھا۔

 

مزید حیرت اُس وقت دیکھنے میں آئی جب اُستاد ہر طالبعلم کا  حل کیا ہوا پرچہ  اُٹھاتا اور اُسے بغیر دیکھے اور پڑھے  ،    اُس طالبعلم کے اختیار کردہ  پہلی  ، دوسری   یا تیسری   قسم کے سوالات والے  پرچے کے مطابق مخصوص نمبر  لگا کر واپس رکھ دیتا۔ طالبعلم اِس ساری صورتحال کو  خاموشی  مگر  نہایت ہی حیرت سے دیکھ رہے تھے مگر اُن کی یہ حیرت زیادہ دیر تک قائم نہ  رہ سکی۔

 

استاد جیسے ہی نمبر لگانے  سے فارغ ہوا تو اُس نے  طلباء کو کئی ایک غیر متوقع باتیں بتائیں۔ استاد نے اس اچھوتی قسم کے امتحان سے راز اُٹھاتے ہوئےجو پہلی بات بتائی وہ یہ تھی کہ:

تینوں قسم کے پرچے حقیقت میں ایک جیسے ہی تھے، کسی میں بھی کوئی مختلف سوال نہیں تھا۔

دوسرا راز یہ تھا کہ  جن طلباء نے مشکل سوال سمجھ کر پرچے اُٹھائے تھے اُس نے اُن طلباء کو اعلیٰ نمبروں سے پاس کیا تھا۔

جن طلباء نے   دوسری قسم کے عام سوالات والے پرچے اُٹھائے تھے اُن کو درمیانہ قسم کے ہی نمبر دیئے گئے تھے۔

اور جن طلباء نے سوالوں کو آسان سمجھ کر اُٹھایا تھا ان کو سب سے کمتر اور کمزور درجہ سے پاس کیا گیا تھا۔

 

اُستاد کی یہ باتیں سُن کر طالبعلموں کے منہ بن کر رہ گئے، اُنکے زیر لب شکوے اب صرف بڑبڑاہٹ ہی نہیں بلکہ آواز بن کر اُستاد تک پہنچ رہے تھے۔ خاص طور پر وہ طلباء جنہوں نے درمیانی قسم یا آسان سوالات والے پرچے لیئے تھے اُن سے یہ بات ہضم نہیں ہو پا رہی تھی۔ انہوں نے تو باقاعدہ اُستاد سے اس بات کی وضاحت ہی مانگ لی۔

 

اُستاد نے اپنے مقصد کی وضاحت کرتے ہوئے کہا کہ:

اُس نے کسی پر کوئی ظلم نہیں کیا۔

اُس نے سب کو نمبر اُن کی  اپنی اختیار کردہ حیثیت کے مطابق ہی تو دیئے ہیں۔

جو  طالبعلم  اپنی محنت پر بھروسہ اور  صلاحیتوں پریقین رکھتا  تھا اور  اُس نے مشکل سوالات والا پرچہ اُٹھایا تھا، اُس کا حق بنتا تھا کہ اُسے اُس کی محنت کا حق  اعلیٰ درجے سے دیا جائے۔

جسے اپنی قابلیت پر شک اور اپنی صلاحیت کا اندازہ  تھا کہ اُس نے نا تو دل لگا کر پڑھا  اور نا ہی سنجیدگی سے محنت کی ہوئی تھی، اُس نے درمیانہ قسم کے پرچے اُٹھائے  اور اُسے اُس کی قدرات کے مطابق ہی درمیانہ نمبر دے دیئے گئے تھے۔

اور وہ کمزور طلباء جنہیں بخوبی پتہ تھا کہ  وہ پڑھنے کے معاملے میں نکمے ہیں، اپنے اسباق یاد کرنا تو دور کی بات،  انہوں نے تو اپنا وقت پڑھائی سے دور بھاگنے، کام چوری ، سستی اور لا پروائی میں  گزارا  ہوا تھا۔ تو ایسے طلباء کو تو اُن کی صلاحیت کے مطابق ہی ضعیف ترین نمبروں سے پاس کیا گیا تھا۔

 

جی ہاں۔ ہماری زندگی  بھی تو بالکل اسی طرح ہی ہے!

جس طرح ان طلباء نے اپنے لئے اپنی اپنی صلاحیت کے مطابق راستوں کا اختیار کیا،  اُسی طرح

آپ کو بھی یہ جان لینا چاہیئے کہ یہ  زندگی ہر شخص کو اس کی اپنی تیاری اور اُسکی قدرت و استطاعت کے مطابق ہی  درجے، ترقیاں،  اور اجرت  و معاوضہ دیا کرتی ہے۔  

 

اسی طرح ہی دوسرے لوگ، خواہ وہ آپ کے اساتذہ ہوں یا آپکے  اداروں کے سربراہان و مالکان، حتیٰ کہ آپ کے دوست اور  آپکے  جاننے  والے عزیز بھی، ان میں سے کوئی بھی آپ کو آپ کے حق سے زیادہ نہیں دے گا۔

 

اگر آپ زندگی کی دوڑ میں اعلیٰ مراتب اور بلند درجوں کے خواہشمند ہیں،  تو پھر آپ  کو بلا  خوف اور  پورے اعتماد کے ساتھ  سخت امتحانات  کو اختیار کرنا پڑے گا۔

 

اب فیصلہ آپ کے ہاتھ میں ہے  کہ آپکو سب سے کمتر اور ضعیف درجے کی کامیابی چاہیئے یا کہ اعلٰی درجوں والی؟

The Last Of Jinnah’s Knights

   The last survivor from the Flight Of Independence. He is 90 today and says he struggled to stop his tears as he emerged from the plane right behind the Founding Father.HARIS ZUBERI | Sunday | 14 August 2011 | Express Tribune a glimmer in his eyes and a spirit of youthful enthusiasm, Atta Rabbani, who served as Jinnah’s Aide-de-Camp (ADC) 63 years ago, recounts his experience of working for his former boss.Rabbani, who is pushing 90, is the last living passenger of the historic ‘Flight Of Independence’ that brought Quaid-e-Azam and Fatima Jinnah from Delhi to Karachi – which was going to be the capital of independent Pakistan – on August 7 1947.He vividly recounts details of the flight in the silver Douglas C-47 (DC-3) Dakota aircraft which took off from Palam airfield in Delhi, without even a hint of a public farewell. Rabbani recalls that as soon as the plane was airborne, Jinnah categorically exclaimed “That is the end of it!”As the passengers enjoyed an aerial view of Delhi’s landmarks for the final time, Rabbani noticed that the Quaid remained silent and lost in deep thought throughout the journey. “One can only imagine the sense of overwhelming responsibility he must have felt at that very moment,” Rabbani reflects on Jinnah’s contemplative state.Yet in stark contrast to its quiet takeoff, the aircraft landed amidst a deluge of fanatic supporters at Mauripur (now Masroor) airfield in Karachi.The overjoyed well-wishers surrounded the aircraft, overwhelming all arrangements made for the reception. “We could not see any recognizable faces from the window except those of Liaquat Ali Khan and Abdur Rab Nishtar!”The slogans of “Quaid-e-Azam Zindabad! Pakistan Zindabad!” echoed endlessly to herald Jinnah’s arrival in Pakistan. This particular scene is also captured in a popular historic photograph.“I am proud to have been just a step behind our leader at that historic moment. I was in uniform and it was hard to control my emotions and push back tears of joy!” the former ADC recalls fondly.As the ADCs stepped out behind Quaid-e-Azam and Fatima Jinnah, the fervent crowd lifted them.The former pilot has a repertoire of many such fond memories about his time serving Pakistan’s founding father. He narrates jubilantly how he, as a 24-year-old young flight lieutenant in the Royal Indian Air Force, got lucky enough to serve Jinnah.“I used to secretly imagine serving Quaid as the pilot of his aircraft, but that seemed far-fetched since I was still a soldier of the British Empire,” he says candidly.Yet he admits that he unwittingly almost missed out on his dream opportunity. “I intentionally ignored three signals from my headquarters to report immediately as I was unaware of my appointment as Jinnah’s ADC. When I finally returned to Delhi, I was immediately intercepted at the railway station by a relative who was an army major,” he recalls with a laugh.When he rushed to Quaid-e-Azam’s residence, the leader questioned him in a commanding manner, “What kept you Mr Rabbani?” But soon after hearing his explanation, he approved the young officer’s appointment.Rabbani served as Jinnah’s ADC for over seven months following independence. Subsequently he was summoned to serve as flying instructor at the Royal Pakistan Air Force  (RPAF) College in Risalpur. “I left Quaid’s house with a heavy heart. Even though he was reserved and formal, he was always very kind,” he recalls.His last meeting with the governor general was in April 1948, when the latter visited RPAF College. During his visit, Jinnah patted Rabbani on the back and told him to visit Karachi. “His unprecedented gesture of affection made me feel an overwhelming sense of contentment,” he gushes.“Till this day, I consider his pat on my shoulder as my knighthood; for me, it was the same as a monarch knighting a noble with a sword.”Unfortunately the young pilot never got another chance to see Jinnah since he passed away soon afterwards. “When I visited Karachi a few months later, I paid my respects at his mausoleum,” says Rabbani ruefully.The former flight lieutenant, who has witnessed the country’s drastic political transformation, candidly admits that the Pakistan dream has indeed gone sour. However, even at his age, he is certain that things will change for the better. “I am hopeful one day things will be on the right course — we have all necessary ingredients, the passion, hard-working people and military prowess. We can never we wiped out! All we need is the same spirit and unity as in 1947.”Published in The Express Tribune, August 14th, 2011.

JUST WAIT AND SEE

The Coming War ...


Here is a perspective by Dr. Peter Hammondwho has a doctorate in Theology. He was born in Cape Town in 1960, grew up in Rhodesia and converted to Christianity in 1977.


Islam is not a religion, nor is it a cult. In its fullest form, it is a complete, total, 100% system of life.

Islam has religious, legal, political, economic, social, and military components. The religious component is a beard for all of the other components.

Islamization begins when there are sufficient Muslims in a country to agitate for their religious privileges.

When politically correct, tolerant, and culturally diverse societies agree to Muslim demands for their religious privileges, some of the other components tend to creep in as well.

Here's how it works:


As long as the Muslim population remains around or under 2% in any given country, they will be for the most part be regarded as a peace-loving minority, and not as a threat to other citizens. This is the case in:

United States -- Muslim 0.6%
Australia -- Muslim 1.5%
Canada -- Muslim 1.9%
China -- Muslim 1.8%
Italy -- Muslim 1.5%
Norway -- Muslim 1.8%


At 2% to 5%, they begin to proselytize from other ethnic minorities and disaffected groups, often with major recruiting from the jails and among street gangs. This is happening in:

Denmark -- Muslim 2%
Germany -- Muslim 3.7%
United Kingdom -- Muslim 2.7%
Spain -- Muslim 4%
Thailand -- Muslim 4.6%


From 5% on, they exercise an inordinate influence in proportion to their percentage of the population. For example, they will push for the introduction of halal (clean by Islamic standards) food, thereby securing food preparation jobs for Muslims. They will increase pressure on supermarket chains to feature halal on their shelves -- along with threats for failure to comply. This is occurring in:

France -- Muslim 8%
Philippines -- 5%
Sweden -- Muslim 5%
Switzerland -- Muslim 4.3%
The Netherlands -- Muslim 5.5%
Trinidad & Tobago -- Muslim 5.8%

At this point, they will work to get the ruling government to allow them to rule themselves (within their ghettos) under Sharia, the Islamic Law. The ultimate goal of Islamists is to establish Sharia law over the entire world.


When Muslims approach 10% of the population, they tend to increase lawlessness as a means of complaint about their conditions. In Paris , we are already seeing car-burnings. Any non-Muslim action offends Islam, and results in uprisings and threats, such as in Amsterdam , with opposition to Mohammed cartoons and films about Islam. Such tensions are seen daily, particularly in Muslim sections, in:

Guyana -- Muslim 10%
India -- Muslim 13.4%
Israel -- Muslim 16%
Kenya -- Muslim 10%
Russia -- Muslim 15%


After reaching 20%, nations can expect hair-trigger rioting, jihad militia formations, sporadic killings, and the burnings of Christian churches and Jewish synagogues, such as in:

Ethiopia -- Muslim 32.8%


At 40%, nations experience widespread massacres, chronic terror attacks, and ongoing militia warfare, such as in:

Bosnia -- Muslim 40%
Chad -- Muslim 53.1%
Lebanon -- Muslim 59.7%


From 60%, nations experience unfettered persecution of non-believers of all other religions (including non-conforming Muslims), sporadic ethnic cleansing (genocide), use of Sharia Law as a weapon, and Jizya, the tax placed on infidels, such as in:

Albania -- Muslim 70%
Malaysia -- Muslim 60.4%
Qatar -- Muslim 77.5%
Sudan -- Muslim 70%


After 80%, expect daily intimidation and violent jihad, some State-run ethnic cleansing, and even some genocide, as these nations drive out the infidels, and move toward 100% Muslim, such as has been experienced and in some ways is on-going in:

Bangladesh -- Muslim 83%
Egypt -- Muslim 90%
Gaza -- Muslim 98.7%
Indonesia -- Muslim 86.1%
Iran -- Muslim 98%
Iraq -- Muslim 97%
Jo rdan -- Muslim 92%
Morocco -- Muslim 98.7%
Pakistan -- Muslim 97%
Palestine -- Muslim 99%
Syria -- Muslim 90%
Tajikistan -- Muslim 90%
Turkey -- Muslim 99.8%
United Arab Emirates -- Muslim 96%


100% will usher in the peace of 'Dar-es-Salaam' -- the Islamic House of Peace. Here there's supposed to be peace, because everybody is a Muslim, the Madrasses are the only schools, and the Koran is the only word, such as in:

Afghanistan -- Muslim 100%
Saudi Arabia -- Muslim 100%
Somalia -- Muslim 100%
Yemen -- Muslim 100%


Unfortunately, peace is never achieved, as in these 100% states the most radical Muslims intimidate and spew hatred, and satisfy their blood lust by killing less radical Muslims, for a variety of reasons.

'Before I was nine I had learned the basic canon of Arab life. It was me against my brother; me and my brother against our father; my family against my cousins and the clan; the clan against the tribe; the tribe that in some countries, with well under 100% Muslim populations, such as France, the minority Muslim populations live in ghettos, within which they are 100% Muslim, and within which they live by Sharia Law. The national police do not even enter these ghettos.

There are no national courts, nor schools, nor non-Muslim religious facilities. In such situations, Muslims do not integrate into the community at large. The children attend madrasses. They learn only the Koran. To even associate with an infidel is a crime punishable with death. Therefore, in some areas of certain nations, Muslim Imams and extremists exercise more power than the national average would indicate.

Today's 1.5 billion Muslims make up 22% of the world's population. But their birth rates dwarf the birth rates of Christians, Hindus, Buddhists, Jews, and all other believers. Muslims will exceed 50% of the world's population by the end of this century.

Timeline of Independence.

1600-British East India Company is established.

1857-The Indian Mutiny or The First War of Independence.

1858-The India Act: power transferred to British Government.

1885-Indian National Congress founded by A. O. Hume to unite all Indians and strengthen bonds with Britain.

1905-First Partition of Bengal for administrative purposes. Gives the Muslims a majority in that state.

1906-All India Muslim League founded to promote Muslim political interests.

1909-Revocation of Partition of Bengal. Creates anti-British and anti-Hindu sentiments among Muslims as they lose their majority in East Bengal.

1916-Lucknow Pact. The Congress and the League unite in demand for greater self-government. It is denied by the British.

1919-Rowlatt Acts, or black acts passed over opposition by Indian members of the Supreme Legislative Council. These were peacetime extensions of wartime emergency measures. Their passage causes further disaffection with the British and leads to protests. Amritsar Massacre. General Dyer opens fire on 20,000 unarmed Indian civilians at a political demonstration against the Rowlatt Acts. Congress and the League lose faith in the British.

1919-Montagu-Chelmsford Reforms (implemented in 1921). A step to self-government in India within the Empire, with greater provincialisation, based on a dyarchic principle in provincial government as well as administrative responsibility. Communal representation institutionalised for the first timeas reserved legislative seats are allocated for significant minorities.

1920-Gandhi launches a non-violent, non-cooperation movement, or Satyagraha, against the British for a free India.

1922-Twenty-one policemen are killed by Congress supporters at Chauri -Chaura. Gandhi suspends non-cooperation movement and is imprisoned.

1928-Simon Commission, set up to investigate the Indian political environment for future policy-making, fails as all parties boycott it.

1929-Congress calls for full independence.

1930-Dr. Allama Iqbal, a poet-politician, calls for a separate homeland for the Muslims at the Allahabad session of the Muslim League. Gandhi starts Civil Disobedience Movement against the Salt Laws by which the British had a monopoly over production and sale of salt.

1930-31-The Round Table conferences, set up to consider Dominion status for India. They fail because of non-attendance by the Congress and because Gandhi, who does attend, claims he is the only representative of all of India.

1931-Irwin-Gandhi Pact, which concedes to Gandhi's demands at the Round Table conferences and further isolates Muslim League from the Congress and the British.

1932-Third Round Table Conference boycotted by Muslim League. Gandhi re-starts civil disobedience. Congress is outlawed by the British and its leaders.

1935-Government of India Act: proposes a federal India of political provinces with elected local governments but British control over foreign policy and defence.

1937-Elections. Congress is successful in gaining majority.

1939-Congress ministries resign.

1940-Jinnah calls for establishment of Pakistan in an independent and partitioned India.

1942-Cripps Mission o India, to conduct negotiations between all political parties and to set up a cabinet government. Congress adopts Quit India Resolution, to rid India of British rule. Congress leaders arrested for obstructing war effort.

1942-43-Muslim League gains more power: ministries formed in Sind, Bengal and North-West Frontier Province and greater influence in the Punjab.

1944-Gandhi released from prison. Unsuccessful Gandhi-Jinnah talks, but Muslims see this as an acknowledgment that Jinnah represents all Indian Muslims.

Pakistan- History

He not only specialized in painting different designs on pottery, made varieties of pots and used cotton and wool but also made terracotta figurines and imported precious stones from Afghanistan and Central Asia. This early bronze age culture spread out in the country side of Sindh, Balochistan, Punjab and North West Frontier Province.

And this early beginning led to the concentration of population into small towns. Such as Kot-Diji in Sindh and Rehman Dheri in Dera Ismail Khan District. It is this social and Cultural change that led to the rise of the famous cities of Mohenjodaro and Harappra, the largest concentration of population including artisans, craftsman, businessmen and rulers. This culminated in the peak of the Indus Civilization, which was primarily based on intensive irrigated land agriculture and overseas trade and contact with Iran, Gulf States, Mesopotamia and Egypt. Dams were built for storing river water, land was Cultivated by means of bullock- harnessed plough - a system that still prevails in Pakistan, granaries for food storage were built, furnace were used for controlling temperature for making red pottery and various kinds of ornaments, beads of carnelian, agate and terracotta were pierced through, and above all they traded their finished goods with Central Asia and Arab world. It is these trade divided that enriched the urban populace who developed a new sense of moral honesty, discipline and cleanliness, and above all a social stratification in which the priests and the mercantile class dominated the society. The picture of high civilization can be gathered only by looking at the city of Mohenjodaro, the first planned city in the world, in which streets are aligned straight, parallels to each other, with a cross streets cutting at right angles. It is through these wide streets that wheeled carriages, drawn by bulls or asses, moved about, carrying well-adorned persons seated on them, appreciating the closely aligned houses, made of pucca bricks, all running straight along the streets. And then through the middle of the streets ran stone dressed drains covered with stone slabs - a practice of keeping the streets clean from polluted water, for the first time seen in the world.
