Description

Dr. Raza explores how the public sphere in colonial Punjab, particularly in Lahore, shaped Pakistan’s idea through writers, poets, and leaders. Despite elite dominance, intellectuals like Allama Iqbal, Ch Rahmat Ali, Fazl-i-Hussain and others embedded religious symbolism, influencing the partition. Analyzing figures such as Inyatullah Mashriqi, Syed Attaula Bukhari, Dr. Raza illustrates their role in heightening Muslim consciousness before 1940. The public sphere fostered dynamic discussions, bolstering Pakistan’s movement from 1940 to 1947, underpinning this study’s significance in redefining historical narratives.
