Pakistan Movement

The Pakistan Movement was a Muslim nationalist political and social movement, emerging in the early 20th century, that advocated the formation of Pakistan as a separate Muslim homeland in the Muslim-majority parts of what was then the British India. It was rooted in the two-nation theory, which asserted that Muslims were fundamentally and irreconcilably distinct from Hindus (who formed the demographic majority) and would therefore require separate self-determination upon decolonisation.
