‘Our fundamental difference with the Congress is that we refuse to surrender on the basic principle of India's integrity nor do we subscribe to pandering to intransigent communalism. We must have the courage to face stern reality that the Congress policy of appeasement has merely widened the breach between Hindus and Muslims, has weakened the national resistance and has gravely jeopardized the legitimate rights of Hindus as such. The C.R. Formula, though powerfully backed by Gandhiji, failed to produce any result as it was nothing but a compromise with an untruth. We hear again of a move for a fresh Congress-League settlement through the efforts of Mr Bhulabhai Desai, though the detailed plans are not officially known to us. Let me say this unhesitatingly that the Hindu-Muslim problem will never be solved by the spokesmen of the Congress bartering away the rights of the Hindus and agreeing to increased percentage of representation to the Muslim League in the Central and Provincial Governments either on a higher basis than their population justifies or on a scale higher than what Muslims are entitled to even under the present constitution Hindu-Muslim settlement can only be achieved by Hindus and Muslims as such and not between a party swayed by communal passions alone utterly oblivious of the country's welfare and another that owes its strength and popularity to Hindu support but openly declares that it does not represent the Hindu community. We have offered a just and fair basis for political settlement between Hindus and Muslims. If Hindu opinion is correctly and widely mobilized there will be no occasion for any non-Muslim organisation to run after the Muslim League for a temporary and patched up solution. The Muslim Community is bound to discover the folly and unwisdom of its own leaders and come to an agreement with the Hindus on a just and equitable basis. It is clear today that British Government will not easily part with power in India. Our goal is complete independence for India. The present constitution stands suspended in the majority of Indian Provinces and the executive government at the Centre owes no responsibility to any elected legislature.
