Q. In which year was the constitution of the Muslim League amended to accommodate the demand for Pakistan?

(a) 1937

(b) 1939

(d) 1941

Explanation: The constitution of the Muslim League was amended to accommodate the demand for Pakistan in 1940. In 1940, the Muslim League held its annual session in Lahore, which is famously known as the Lahore Resolution or the Pakistan Resolution. During this session, the demand for a separate nation for Muslims in India was formally introduced and adopted. The resolution called for the creation of independent states in the Muslim-majority regions of India. This marked a significant shift in the Muslim League’s goals and led to the eventual demand for the creation of Pakistan. The amendment to the Muslim League’s constitution to reflect this demand for Pakistan occurred in the same year, 1940.
