be recognized.

literature and culture. This further fueled the divide between Urdu and Hindi supporters.

• The Nehru Report outlined Congress' demands for self-government and a constitution for India
but did not adequately address Muslim political demands.

• In response to the Nehru Report, Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah formulated his seminal
"Fourteen Points" in 1929 to protect Muslim interests within a self-governing India.

• The 14 points included demands such as:

- Separate electorates for minorities for 15 years and if needed, in perpetuity


- Weightage in representation of Muslim majority areas
- Safeguards for Muslim personal law
- A strong central government with substantial powers

• Jinnah presented the 14 points as a counter to the Congress' position outlined in the Nehru
Report, which he felt did not sufficiently protect Muslim political rights.

• However, the Congress and other parties rejected most of Jinnah's 14 points, further alienating
the Muslim League and Jinnah.

So in summary, Quaid-e-Azam Jinnah formulated and presented his famous "Fourteen Points" in
direct response to the demands made by the Indian National Congress in the Nehru Report
submitted to the Simon Commission. The 14 points aimed to secure political safeguards for
Muslims within a self-governing India as envisioned by the Congress.

To counter the propaganda of Congress

Some key details:

- The United Indian Patriotic Association was formed under the leadership of loyalist Muslims in

- The association's main agenda was to oppose the goal of swaraj (self-rule) and the Quit India
movement advocated by the Congress.

- The association aimed to propagate the British viewpoint and counter what it saw as the
extremist and separatist views of the Congress.

- The association supported the policy of British parliamentary reforms and dominion status for
India under continued British rule. It opposed the demand for complete independence.

- The association recruited prominent Muslims to speak against Congress' extremist views and
propaganda. It aimed to convince Muslims that their political and social interests were safer under
British rule.

- While the association supported some modern education and social reforms among Muslims, its
primary focus was countering the nationalist Congress party and its demand for swaraj from the
British. Facilitating Muslim education and ending enmity with the British were not its primary
agendas.

So in summary, the primary agenda of forming the United Indian Patriotic Association was to
counter the Indian National Congress party and its nationalist propaganda and goal of self-rule. The
option 'To counter the propaganda of Congress' is correct. Promoting Muslim education and
reducing enmity with the British were not the association's central objectives.
