Major Gaurav Arya's Tweet and Response by Turkish Politician

[Bilal.]

What I have said is an indisputable historical fact.

Nope. The Main leaders of the Khilafat movement: the Jauhar brothers and Hakim Ajmal became part of Muslim League. Too much revisionist history being peddled in india these days.

 

[Sal12]

This is true Gandhi supported Khilafat movement and Jinnah opposed Khilafat movement around 1920's. Jinnah had his own reasons and I will not go into detail. However vast number of muslims in British India did support Khilafat movement and they actually donated large sum of money for the movement.

There can always be arguments - no doubt.

But do you know what was Gandhi's ulterior motive to support this movement?

 

[MayaBazar]

Jinnah was NOT just a leader of muslims in current Pakistan.

Jinnah only represents Pakistanis not Indians.

He represented ALL muslims living in undivided India.

Only half of the Muslims followed Jinnah. The other half of the Muslims did not follow Jinnah (including his family) and stayed back in India.

This was the basis of starting All India Muslim League in 1909; and it was on this basis Gandhi, Negru and rest of the leaders of Congress entered any negotiations with Muslim League.

Jinnah was not founding member of All India Muslim League.

Jinnah joined All India Muslim League only in 1913.

All India Muslim League did not have popular support of the masses until 1930s.

Most of the subcontinent Muslims were followers of Gandhi ji, Abul Kalam Azad and Congress during the Khilafat Movement.

 

[Flash_Ninja]

Wrong.

Pakistanis (subcontinent Muslims who followed Jinnah) never supported the Khilafat Movement.

Only Indians (subcontinent Hindus who followed Gandhi ji and subcontinent Muslims who followed Abul Kalam Azad) supported the Khilafat Movement.

From Wikipedia

The Khilafat movement, is known as the Indian Muslim movement (1919–24), was a pan-Islamist political protest campaign launched by Muslims of the British India led by Shaukat Ali, Maulana Mohammad Ali Jauhar, Hakim Ajmal Khan, and Abul Kalam Azad.

Shaukat Ali:
In 1936, Ali became a member of the All India Muslim League and became a close political ally of and campaigner for Muhammad Ali Jinnah, the future founder of Pakistan. He served as member of the 'Central Assembly' in British India from 1934 to 1938. He travelled all over the Middle East, building support for India's Muslims and the struggle for independence from the British rule in India.[1]

Mohammad Ali Jauhar:
Mohammad Ali opposed the part of the Nehru Report's 'rejection' of separate electorates for Muslims, and supported the Fourteen Points of Muhammad Ali Jinnah and the Muslim League.

Hakim Ajmal Khan:
At the end of December 1906, he actively participated at the Dhaka founding of the All India Muslim League on 30 December 1906.[12]

Turks were fighting against the British and its allies during 1st world war. Gandhi was supporting Khilafat movement in a hope that this would weaken British empire and perhaps would be forced to leave India.

Where did I say Jinnah was the founder of Muslim League?

every political movement takes time to become popular, so did Muslim league. It needed time to topple the well grounded Congress.
Which it did from 1930s till 1947

Gandhi’s motive was to find more support for non cooperation movement.

interestingly Khilfat movement leaders were founding members of Muslim League.

No!
No!
and No!

Gandhi was a KATTAR Hindu and hated Muslims from his guts.

He saw this movement as an opportunity to create an illusion for Indian Muslims to leave India to support their Turkish brothers.....he was a shrewd man

Gandhi did believe in Hindu politics and its philosophy and he was first main leader who introduced religion in British Indian politics in early 1900's. But this was not gandhi alone, there were many prominent muslim leaders at that time who did support khilafat movement and many muslims did migrate to Afganistan after selling their properties in India and they regretted afterwards.

Gandhi's motive was to weaken British empire and its grip on India.

What about Pakistan asked Gaddafi to pay for Lahore stadium. Is that fact as well ? [emoji3]

Government of Pakistan and Pakistanis should weigh in and provide clarification on why Lahore Stadium was renamed as Gaddafi Stadium.

There can always be arguments - no doubt.

But do you know what was Gandhi's ulterior motive to support this movement?

LoL First you deny and when confronted with facts now you question the motive. Great going.

 

[AgNoStiC MuSliM]

Fact Check:

Pakistanis did not support Khilafat Movement.

Only Indians supported the Khilafat Movement.

If you want to argue semantics, Citizens of the British empire supported Khilafat. There was no country called India and therefore no such thing as ‘Indians’ in terms of a nationality.

What can I do if you are so dim that you cannot differentiate between my two responses

You are repeating like a broken record. Read who were the main leaders of the Khilafat movement and then read how many of them became Muslim League members. It has all
been provided up in this thread which you are avoiding.

Fact Check:

Pakistanis did not support Khilafat Movement.

Only Indians supported the Khilafat Movement.

Good one.
