Allahabad Address
Encyclopedia : A : AL : ALL : Allahabad Address
Allahabad Address was the Presidential Address by Allama Iqbal to the 25th Session of the All-India Muslim League on 29 December, 1930, at Allahabad. Here he presented the idea of a separate homeland for Indian Muslims which was ultimately realised in the form of Pakistan.
"I would like to see the Punjab, North-West Frontier Province, Sind and Baluchistan amalgamated into a single State. Self-government within the British Empire, or without the British Empire, the formation of a consolidated North-West Indian Muslim State appears to me to be the final destiny of the Muslims, at least of North-West India." [Sir Muhammad Iqbal’s 1930 Presidential Address], from Columbia University site References
