Who was referred to as the “Ambassador of Hindu-Muslim Unity” by Sarojini Naidu ?
-
- Muhammad Ali Jinnah
- Abdul Ghaffar Khan
- Shaukat Ali
- Maulana Azad
Correct Option: A
Jinnah began his political career showing the most ferocious will to forge unity between Hindu and Muslim Indians. At the end of the first ten years of his career from 1906 to 1919, this attitude earned him the nickname 'the ambassador of Hindu-Muslim Unity' from Sarojini Naidu. Naidu, who compiled Jinnah’s speeches and writings in 1918 gave the volume the sub-title ‘An Ambassador of Unity’ and wrote that he stood “as an embodied symbol of Hindu-Muslim unity.”
