Why some Indian Muslims under British rule should have organised
politics on a communal basis is one of the most important problems
in the history of the subcontinent. Insistence on a separate Muslim
political identity led eventually to the foundation of Pakistan and
many of the troubles which have beset the area since Independence.
The separate Muslim front in Indian politics was led and supported
mainly by men from the United Provinces. The first period of
effective separatist politics ended in 1923. This book examines the
circumstances in which the separate Muslim front was built up and
crumbled away in this period, and then analyses the different
groups which at various times supported it. Dr Robinson argues that
Muslim separatism was fostered by the political needs of the
British, of the Muslims and of the Indian National Congress.
