The Muslim League, led by Muhammad Ali Jinnah, demanded the creation of a separate state for Muslims called Pakistan, which would be a Muslim-majority country. This demand led to the tragic Partition of India in 1947, resulting in the division of British India into two independent nations: India and Pakistan, accompanied by large-scale violence and displacement.
