25th June 1936
My dear Mr. Jinnah
Sir Sikandar Hayat left Lahore a day or two ago. I think he will meet
you at Bombay and have a talk with you about certain matters of
importance. Daultana saw me yesterday evening. He tells me that the
Muslim members of the Unionist Party are prepared to make the following
declaration
“That in all matters specific to the Muslim community as an all-India
minority they will be bound by the decision of the League and will
never make any pact with any nom-Muslims group in the Provincial
Assembly.”
“Provided the League (Provincial) makes the following declaration:
That those returned to the Provincial Assembly on the League ticket
will co-operate with that party or group which has the largest number of
Muslims’.”
Please let me know at your earliest convenience what you think of
this proposal. Also let me know the result of your talk with Sir
Sikandar Hayat. If you succeed in convincing him he may come to our
side.
Hoping you are well,
Yours sincerely,
(Sd.) Mohammad Iqbal
Mayo Road, Lahore
