Abstract

The Majlis-i-Ahrar-i-Islam (MAI) played a very significant role for national construction in North Indian politics in the decade before partition. It emerges from the paradoxes of Indian National Movement. One side it had taken the nationalist ideology on its top priority but another side the question of Muslim Identity also prevailing. It was very interesting and significant that MAI had taken up its multidimensional approach with the commitment to oppose the imperial rule as well as formation of Pakistan.
