The Lahore Resolution | Separating Fact from Fiction

» The Lahore Resolution of 1940 is often hailed as the defining moment in the creation of Pakistan, but how much of what we know is historical fact, and how much is later reinterpretation? Over the decades, political narratives have shaped and reshaped its meaning, sometimes distorting its original intent. This session will critically examine the objectives, context and aftermath of the Lahore Resolution, separating rhetoric from reality. Was it a demand for a separate state or something more nuanced? How did its interpretation evolve over time? Join us as we explore the layers of history and analyse long-held assumptions about this landmark moment.
