Study Notes

Indian Motives and Misapprehensions

India wanted to create problems for Pakistan due to the fear of being surrounded by a Muslim nation, which would challenge its own secular identity.
India also felt threatened by the idea of a separate homeland for Muslims, which would undermine its claim to be a multicultural state.

Geographical Challenges

Pakistan faced a geographical problem after independence, with its eastern and western wings separated by a 1,000-mile-long corridor of Indian territory.

Government Formation Challenges

The formation of a government in Pakistan posed a challenge due to the lack of experienced leaders, as many Muslim League leaders were either imprisoned or had migrated from India.

East-West Pakistan Divide

It was difficult for West Pakistan to control East Pakistan because of the physical distance, cultural differences, and linguistic barriers between the two regions, with Bengali being the dominant language in East Pakistan and Urdu in West Pakistan.
