““The whole country was aghast with the ‘Lahore Resolution’ as it was known then. But, Gandhi whole heartedly supported it by saying “If the vast majority of Muslims regard themselves as a separate nation having nothing in common with the Hindus, no power on earth can compel them to think otherwise. And if they want to partition India on that basis, they must have it, unless Hindus want to fight against such a division”.1””
