Topic: Khaksars


In the News (Mon 4 Jun 12)

  
 [No title]
After this tragic incident, the Khaksars came out on the streets, and demonstrations continued on a daily basis for the release of Mashriqi and the Khaksars in jail and for the removal of the ban on the movement.
Although the Khaksar role has been given a sense of negativity by anti-Khaksar elements and in many cases has been wiped out from the freedom movement of Pakistan, history is witness to the fact that the Khaksar resistance was the longest and boldest fight for independence in the sub-continent.
Khaksars’ contributions have been denied by pro Muslim Leaguers and the entire credit for the creation of Pakistan has been given to Muslim League, however the facts of history speak for themselves and cannot be changed or denied no matter what pro-Muslim League historians may say.

The Khaksars who were killed were not to be addressed as martyrs or heroes in the public media.
Unfortunately the historic Khaksar resolution is mostly unknown to the public because it does not appear in the supplements published by the media each year on March 23.
The restriction on his movements and the ban on the Khaksar Tehrik was ultimately removed in December, 1942 and Mashriqi finally arrived in Lahore as a free man in January, 1943.

 Khaksars - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Khaksar Tehrik, based in Lahore, Pakistan, was established by Allama Mashriqi in 1930, keeping in mind the plight and poor condition of the masses in India.
All Khaksars were required to bear their own expenses and devote time to the cause.
The gathering of Khaksars every evening brought them together and gave them a sense of achievement and pride because they were performing a collective duty towards the national cause.

In protest, the Khaksars paraded on March 19, 1940 in Lahore (a few days prior to the historic Muslim League session of March 22-24, 1940 where the Pakistan Resolution and the Khaksar Resolution were passed).

 Khaksar Tehrik
While Mashriqi was making these efforts in Delhi, a Khaksar took the initiative to form a jaish (contingent) of 313 Khaksars (on March 19, 1940).
Although the Khaksars were marching peacefully, the police intercepted them and asked them to halt their parade.
Thus, the massacre of the Khaksars helped unite the Muslims under the Muslim League while Mashriqi and thousands of the Khaksars were in jail and the Khaksar Tehrik was banned.

We were to march on towards the Wagah border and keep going until we reached Delhi’s Red Fort, where we were to unfurl the Pakistani flag from the rampart and thus declare the victory of Islam over kufr.

Four years later there was “a sudden but carefully planned eruption of Khaksars” at the Imperial Hotel, Delhi, where the All-India Muslim League Council was in session on the upper floor.
With their belchas “they wrought the maximum of havoc in the minimum of time” and shouting “Get Jinnah” were half-way up the staircase leading to the room where the Quaid and the Council were in session, when the National Guards intervened, and Khaksars were dispersed by the police with the help of tear-gas.
The Quaid “had no doubt but that the assault was an attempt on his life,” but Campbell-Johnson, who has narrated the incident, records : “Jinnah behaved with great composure.” The Quaid’s nerve was also tested in a less violent but, perhaps, more potent manner by the Viceroy Lord Mountbatten.
