There are several myths and legends associated with Kannur. The name Kannur is said to have been derived from two Malayalam words 'Kannan' (Krishna) and 'Ur' (place).

The name 'Kannur' also is not an exception. According to another version, 'Kannur' is a derivation of Kanathur, an ancient village, the name of which survives even today in one ...

Muslim League: Encyclopedia II - Mohammad Ali Jinnah - Jinnah in the eyes of his contemporaries

Mohammad Ali Jinnah - H V Hodson. writes in his book: "One thing is certain, it was not for any venal motive that he changed. Not even his political enemies ever accused Jinnah of corruption or self seeking. He could be bought by no one and for no price. Nor was he in the least degree a weathercock, swinging in the wind of popularity or changing his politics to suit the chances of the time. He was a steadfast idealist, as well as a man of scrupulous honour." (Page 39- T ...

Mohammad Ali Jinnah has an iconic status in Pakistan, is revered as the Father of the Nation, and honoured on his nominal birthday on December 25th each year, on Pakistan's independence day on August 14th and on Pakistan Day, March 23rd. Many historians especially in Pakistan view him as a brilliant advocate, a liberal democrat and a progressive who remained in the Indian Nationalist camp for very long time (1906-1938). His disillusionment with Gandhi was the result of Gandhi's support of the Khilaf ...

Pakistan - Population Statistics. Pakistan has the world's sixth largest population, more than Russia, but less than Brazil; because of Pakistan's high growth rate, it is expected to overtake Brazil in population in the year 2020. Population projections for Pakistan are relatively difficult because of the apparent differences in the accuracy of each census and the inconsistencies between various surveys related to ...

Muslim League: Encyclopedia II - Pakistan - Economy

Pakistan, a developing country, is the sixth most populous in the world and has faced a number of challenges on the political and economic fronts. Although a very poor country when it became independent in 1947, in the 1960s Harvard economists proclaimed it to be a model of economic development. In each of its first four decades, Pakistan's economic growth rate was better than the global average, but imprudent policies led to a slowdown in the late 1990s. Since then, the Pakistani government has instituted wide-ranging reforms, and ec ...

Muslim League: Encyclopedia II - Pakistan - Society and culture

Pakistan has a rich and unique culture, and has actively preserved its established traditions throughout history. Prior to the Islamic invasion, many Punjabis and Sindhis were Hindu and Buddhist. This later changed during the expansion of Islam through Pakistan by the Ummayad General Muhammad bin Qasim and later by Mahmud of Ghazni and others. Many cultural practices, foods and monuments, shrines, have been inherited from the rule of Muslim Mughal and Afghan emperors in all of Southern Asia. The Pakistani national dress, Shalwar Kameez is on ...

Iqbal, in his 1930 presidential address had first discussed the idea of a Muslim country in northwest India, and Rahmat Ali is famously attributed with the coining of the term Pakistan.

Muslim League: Encyclopedia II - Mohammad Ali Jinnah - Jinnah as a legislator

From 1910, when he was first elected as a representative of Muslims of Bombay under the Indian National Congress, to 1948, Jinnah's career as a legislator spanned over four decades. He was a parliamentarian par excellence, which is why he detested the politics of revolution and rabble rousing. As Dr Ambedkar pointed out in his book "Pakistan or Partition of India", he was one of the harshest critics of British rule in the assembly but not a rebel. As a legislator, he was instrumental in the passing of several bills that today constitu ...

Muslim League: Encyclopedia II - Indian Independence Movement - Indian Independence Movement

The term 'Indian Independence Movement' is fairly diffuse, since it involves several different movements with similar objectives. The mainstream movement was led by the Indian National Congress, which followed nonviolent agitation and civil disobedience led by Mahatma Gandhi, Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel and Jawaharlal Nehru. Other leaders, such as Subhash Chandra Bose, adopted a military approach to the movement. The movement culminated in the independence of the subcontinent fr ...

Muslim League: Encyclopedia II - E. F. L. Wood 1st Earl of Halifax - Ambassador to the United States and Later Life

Winston Churchill maintained him as foreign minister for about nine months to present the Conservative Party as a unified front but the two men did not enjoy a particularly close relationship and Halifax soon found himself packed off to Washington - a common recourse of Churchill with men he suspected might be able but with whom he did not get on. Halifax did not at first appear a particularly deft diplomat and made a number of widely publicised gaffes including some poorly received jokes about baseball. To the American public he came across ...

Muslim League: Encyclopedia II - E. F. L. Wood 1st Earl of Halifax - Early Career

He was born into a rather sickly west country family: Halifax's three older brothers all died in infancy leaving him the heir to his father's viscountcy. Halifax himself was born with a withered left arm with no hand, a disability that in no way affected his riding, hunting or shooting. He was nicknamed the "Holy Fox" by Winston Churchill in reference to these pursuits, his title and also his religiosity for like his father he was a devout Anglo-Catholic. He was son of the 2nd Viscount Halifax. He was educated at Eton and Christ Churc ...

He was Viceroy of India from 1926 to 1931. In 1925 he had been proposed at the suggestion of George V, no doubt mindful of his immediate family background (his grandfather had been Secretary of State for India) and immaculate pedigree. Created Baron Irwin, he arrived in Bombay 1 April 1926 hoping to improve Anglo-Indian relations and calm interfaith tensions in the country. A deeply religious man, he was considered the right choice to deal with Mahatma ...

Muslim League: Encyclopedia II - E. F. L. Wood 1st Earl of Halifax - Halifax and the Widerstand

Concerns as to Halifax's earlier appeasing stance are countered in the biography by Andrew Roberts. The 'hankering' for peace, so notable in Halifax' diplomacy, is said, by the outbreak of war, to be so conditioned by his distrust of Hitler, that he was largely immune to later peace offers. Those who cite this believe that he did his best, indeed, to thwart those which came from Pope Pius XII (the Vatican Exchanges), the Dutch and Belgian monarchs and, most importantly, from American President Roosevelt, because he realised that popular German approbation of Hitler was so overwhelmin ...

Muslim League: Encyclopedia II - History of Bangladesh - The Language Movement

The Language Movement began in 1948 and reached its climax in the killings of 21 February 1952, and ended in the adoption of Bangla as one of the state languages of Pakistan. The question as to what would be the state language of Pakistan was raised immediately after its creation. The central leaders and the Urdu-speaking intellectuals of Pakistan declared that Urdu would be the state language of Pakistan, just as Hindi was the state language of India. Bengalis strongly resisted attempts to impose Urdu as the sole official language of Pakistan. The students and intellectuals of East Pakistan, ho ...
