In this book, the Author has traced the eventful course of history from the time of adoption of the Pakistan Resolution at the Lahore session of the All India Muslim League in March 1940 to the achievement of Pakistan as an independent sovereign state in August 1947. With the help of documents and through additional materials like newspapers, speeches and comments, he has been able to restructure with absorbing interest the crucial developments in the last stages of the struggle for freedom, when the political intrigues of the Muslim League successfully converted their demand for Pakistan into a reality, despite strong opposition from the indian National Congress and several British statesman. The documents collected by the another will be of great interest to the students of Indian history and layman alike.
