Under Congress provincial rule, which religious practice was reported to be forbidden in various parts of the sub-continent?
There were numerous reports and complaints from Muslims that the Azan (call to prayer) was forbidden or disrupted in several localities under Congress rule. This contributed significantly to the Muslim sense of religious insecurity.
1122
Which language was enforced as the official language in all the provinces under Congress rule from 1937 to 1939?
The Congress ministries promoted Hindi as the official language and the medium of instruction in schools. This was seen as an attempt to displace Urdu, which had a deep cultural and historical association with the Muslims of the subcontinent.
1123
Which novel is the source of the 'Bande Mataram' song, adopted by the Congress as a national anthem during their rule?
The song 'Bande Mataram' was taken from the novel 'Anand Math' written by Bankim Chandra Chatterjee. Muslims objected to the song because they found its imagery and the context of the novel to be anti-Islamic and idolatrous.

With the installation of Congress ministries, which dietary restriction was imposed on Muslims in several areas?

What symbolic action did the Congress take on official buildings after taking power in 1937?

During the 1937 election campaign, Jawaharlal Nehru claimed there were only two parties in India. Who did Quaid-e-Azam identify as the 'third party'?
Nehru famously stated that there were only two parties in India: the British Government and the Congress. Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah challenged this claim by declaring that there was a 'third party' in the country—the Muslims—whose interests could not be ignored.
1128
What was the duration of the Congress ministries' rule in the provinces?
The Congress ministries held power from July 1937 until October 1939. This period is regarded as highly controversial due to the policies implemented by the Congress, which many Muslims felt were biased and discriminatory toward their community.
1129
How many seats did the Muslim League win in Bengal out of the 117 seats reserved for Muslims?
The Muslim League won 39 seats out of 117 in Bengal. Although not a majority, this made them a significant player in the provincial politics of Bengal, where they eventually formed a coalition with the Krishak Praja Party.
