Chaudhry Rehmat Ali

Chaudhry Rehmat Ali:

 Chaudhry Rehmat Ali played an important role in the establishment of Pakistan. He was in London when the Round Table Conferences were being held and tried to persuade the Muslim leaders that they should demand nothing less than a separate homeland for the Muslims.

  In 1933, Rehmat Ali and three other students at Cambridge University published and distributed a pamphlet ’Now or Never’ It was a demand to work for the establishment of a separate homeland now otherwise that time of demand would never come with a specific name of a separate country “Pakistan” it could be seen as the fate for 30 million Muslims in the subcontinent.

  This pamphlet was not only accepted by Muslim leaders but the name ‘Pakistan’ as the new Muslim country was also given an overwhelming support. This pamphlet also clarified the Muslim ideology before the British government in England. Rehmat Ali stands as a man who gave Pakistan its name.    In 1933, he formed that Pakistan national movement in England to campaign for the ideas of Pakistan. He also published a work entitled ‘Pakistan Now or Never"; he was one of the visionary leaders of Pakistani nation’.

  Rehmat Ali disappointed the way land was allocated during partition in 1947 and felt that important Muslim communities such as this in Delhi had been unfairly given to India. He criticized Jinnah for accepting the terms of partition in 1947. He was a great influence for Pakistan.
