At which among the following sessions, the All India Muslim league passed the Pakistan Resolution on 23 March 1940?
A)
Karachi
B)
Lahore
C)
Lucknow
D)
Hyderabad

Correct Answer :   Lahore

The Pakistan demand was formalised gradually. On 23 March 1940, the League moved a resolution demanding a measure of autonomy for the Muslim majority areas of the subcontinent. This ambiguous resolution never mentioned partition or Pakistan
The name Pakistan or Pak-stan (from Punjab, Afghan, Kashmir, Sind and Baluchistan) was coined by a Punjabi Muslim student at Cambridge, Choudhry Rehmat Ali, who, in pamphlets written in 1933 and 1935, desired a separate national status for this new entity.
