Martial Law 1958:
General Muh am mad Ayub Khan deposed lskander
Mirza in October 1958. He imposed Martial Law and justified
his actions on some grounds. Some important causes of this
Martial Law are given below:
1. Political Conflict:

gave birth to grouping in the Muslim League. Governor General

dissolved Assembly twice. Thus. political conflict paved the way
for the first Martial Law in the country.

Chapter 4
2. Poor Economic Conditions:

Political instability and poor economic situation were
prevailing in the country. Despite being an agricultural country,
the country experienced a food shortage. The economic
situation was so poor that in some areas famine like situation
arose.
3. lack of Political Leadership:
Pakistan lost capable political leadership after the
deaths of Quaid-e-Azam � ,.;;, ;J.1 Liaquat Ali Khan and Hussain
Shaheed Suharwardy and such people got the control of the
country as could neither build national unity among people nor
solve the problems of the people.
4. Smuggling and Nepotism:
Some other causes of Martial Law included smuggling,
black marketing, nepotism and obtainment of undue privileges.
No one was mere to solve the problems of the people. The
middle class was living a miserable life. The system of entire
country was plunged into chaos.
5. Role of Bureaucracy:
Bureaucracy man.ifested the most irresponsible attitude
and played its role in failing democracy in the country. Being
influential, lust for power was born in their hearts which caused
the imposition of Martial Law.
6. Ayub Khan's Politics:
Politicians were involved inputting legs of each other.
So, there was political instability in the country. In these
circumstances, Governor General Ghulam Muhammad
included General Ayub Khan as Defence Minister in the
cabinet It created uncertainty.
7. Provincial Prejudices:
Thriving provincial prejudices also resulted in the
imposition of Martial Law. Politicians. without caring for national
security, instigated the public sentiments. The people of the
same country looked displeased with one another. On the other
hand. the ruling class paid no attention to stop this dangerous
trend.
8. Political Instability:
Six cabinets were formed by two Governor Generals
from 1953 to 1958. Political instability and failure of
6
Chapter 4
parliamentary system resulted in a political crisis. The people

developed hatred towards politicians. They lost their trust in
democratic process that brought Martial Law.
9. Delay in Elections:
No General Elections were held in first eleven years of
Pakistan. Elections were held only in the provinces one by one.
After the Constitution of 1956 was passed, it was hoped that
General Elections would be held within one year but it could not
be done.

forced an enemy many times bigger than it to face a humiliated
defeat. A brief account of the causes of the September 1965
war lasted for 17 days is given below:
1. India. intoxicated with power, started war against China
in 1962 and was defeated badly. Afterwards, to remove this
stigma, India tried to occupy the disputed territory of Rann of
Kutch but had to face a total defeat. Thus, to restore its lost
dignity, India started war against Pakistan.

enveloped by unfavorable circumstances from the very
beginning.
Severe Drought:

and chaos. It had a negative effect on industrial production. In

Q.5
IDescribe early problems of Pakistan.
I
Ans: Early Problems of Pakistan:
1. Unjust Division of Radcliffe:
According to the plan of June 3rd • 1947. it was decided
that the Pu_njab and Bengal will be divided into Muslim and
Non-Muslim majority areas. Muslim majority areas would
become part of Pakistan whereas the remaining areas would
10
Chapter 4
be included in India. It was agreed that a boundary commission

should be constituted and its arbitration should be abided by
the parties. Sir Radcliffe, an English law expert, was assigned
this responsibility. Sir Radcliffe, influenced and manipulated by
Lord Mountbatten, made unjust and unfair partition.
Conspiringly, some obvious Muslim majority areas were
included in India. The agreed map according to the population
and the line drawn on it was altered. Radcliffe unjustly deprived
Pakistan of some important areas. Three of the Tehsils of
Gurdaspur District i.e Gurdaspur, Pathankot and Batala: Zira,
the Tehsil of Ferozepur and some other areas comprised of an
overwhelming majority of population of the Muslims were
handed over to India. India was graoted access to the state of
Jammu and Kashmir through-inclusion of Gurdaspur in India.
Sir Radcliffe not only deprived the Muslims of their areas and
rights but also created the problem of Kashmir issue, he
planted a seed of enmity between the two nations that is still a
bone of contention oetween the two countries.

2. Rehabilitation of Refugees:
After the establishment of Pakistan, the Muslims living
in India decided to come into their new homeland as they found
their lives unsafe there. Millions of families journeyed towards
Pakistan leaving all of their belongings in India. These
11
Chapter 4
homeless, ruined, miserable and distressed Muslims were

accommodated temporarily in refugee camps. The Government
of Pakistan made an accelerated planning to provide them with
food. homes, medicines and other necessities. The local
people welcomed their Muslim brothers with open anns. Wrth
the joint efforts of the Government and the people of Pakistan,
the requirements of the refugees were met. They were in such
a large number 'that there was no capacity to accommodate
them. People settled wherever they got some space of shelter.
Rehabilitation of the refugees was a great challenge. The world
has not seen such a large scale of migration anywhere else.
3. Administrative Problems:
The No,1-Muslim Government officials previously
working in the areas of Pakistan shifted to India in a large
number. The offices were vacated. There was an acute
shortage of the items of furnit�re, stationery and typewriters.
Most of the offices started their function in open air. While
going to India. the Hindus destroyed official record. It caused
enormous difficulties in o·ffic� work.
4. Distribution of Assets:
The Indian rulers d,d injustice in the proportional
distribution of the assets too. They continued to avoid giving
Pakistan its due share. They used every possible device to
destroy the economy of Pakistan. They withheld agreed share
of Pakistan's assets. At the tirne . of partition, Rupees four
hundred billion were deposited in "Reserve Bank" of the United
India. This amount was to be divided betwe.en both the
countries. The proportional share of Pakistan was Rs 750
million. India was not prepared to give Pakistan her due share.
Forced by the continuous demands n1ade by Pakistan and to
maintain her creditability at internation:il level, India issued an
amount of Rs 700 million. The remaining amount of Rs. 50
million is still to be paid by India. A meeting between the
representatives of both the countries was held in November
194 7. An agreement was made. Both the countries confinned
the agreement but it has not been implemented so far
5. Division of Army:
After the Sub-continent was partitioned, it was also
necessary to divide military assets proportionally, but justice
was not done in this division too. India wanted to weaken
12
Chapter 4
Pakistan so that it was forced to be a part of India. Before the

partition, the Commander of United India did not like armed
forces be divided. He wanted to keep all the forces under a
single command. The Muslim League did not agree to his
stand-point and insisted on the division of military resources
and assets between the two countries.
The British Government had to accept this demand. It
was decided that army assets between the two countries be
divided in the proportion of 64% to India and 36% to Pakistan
The ordnance factories running in the United India, not a single
one was set VP in the areas included in Pakistan. What to
mention of shifting an ordnance factory into Pakistan, the
Indian Cabinet was not willing even to shift a small part of
machinery to Pakistan. After a long discussion, it was decided
that Pakistan be given Rs 60 million to set up an ordnance
factory of her own. Each formula developed for the distribution
of general military assets was rejected by the Indian
Government. This made the conditions even worse and more
complex. In this way, Pakistan was deprived of its due shares.
6. The River water Issue:
The partition. of the Sub-continent affected the natural
flow of the rivers. According to international law, the natural
channel of the river is maintained and two or more than two
countries through which a river flows can benefit its waters. No
country has the right to divert the natural flow of the river to
deprive some other country of water resources. A crisis arose
in the Sub-continent regarding this issue. Punjab and Sindh are
irrigated by the River Indus and its tributaries i.e, Jhelum,
Chenab, Ravi, Sutlej and Beas. When Punjab was divided into
two p.arts. rivers were also divided. Ravi, Sutlej and Beas pass
through India before they enter Pakistan. India stopped the
water channel coming to West Punjab in 1948. It was the step
to destroy the economy of the Punjab and Sindh because rivers
are a clear- source of irrigation 1n these areas.
Another injustice was done by the boundary
commission formed under the headship of Radcliffe. In spite of
the fact that most of the head-works were in the areas of
Muslim majority, Radcliffe handed over them to India. This
conspiracy could result in agricultural and economic destruction
of Pakistan. When India decided to build a dam on River Sutlej,
13
Chapter 4
Pakistan protested strongly against it and Pakistan informed

the international community of the severity of this issue.
An agreement, brokered by the World Bank, was signed
between India and Pakistan in September 1960. This greement
is known as the Indus Water Treaty. India retained rights to the
three eastern rivers. narnely Ravi. Beas and SutleJ. Pakistan
obtained exclusive rights for the three western rivers, namely
Indus, Jhelurn and Chenab.
7. Issue of States:
During the British rule. there were 635 Princely states in
India. When the time of freedom approached near. the people
started to think about the future of these states. In Cabinet.
Mission Plan. the rulers of these states were asked to
participate in the constitution - making process for 1heir future
status as well as protection of their interests. The rulers were
also advised to keep in mind the choice of their people and
religious aff 1liations. The British Government announced the
termination of its control over India and Indian States on 20
February, 1947. Under this announcement of decolonization,
the states decided to affiliate either with Pakistan or India. No
immediate step was taken by the states of Hyderabad,
Junagarh, Manavadar and Jammu and Kashmir. Indian Armed
Forces occupied these states through military action. It
increased the feelings of distrust towards of India.

a preamble.
Q.7 Write salient features of the Constitution of
1962.
Ans: Salient Features of Constitution of 1962:
In February, 1960 Ayub Khan constituted a ten
members' Constitution Commission for the formulation of
constitution. Former Chief Justice, Shahb-ud-Din, chaired this
Commission. It submitted its recommendations to the then
President of Pakistan on May 6, 1961. Afterwards, the
President constituted a Constitution Committee headed by then
Foreign Minister. Manzoor Qadir. This Committee consisted of
seven cabinet members. The Committee ignored the
recommendations made by the Commission and compiled
constitutional recommendations of its own choice which were
approved in the Conference of Governors. Thus the
Constitution was completed. Through a Presi 1dential Order, the
then President Muhammad Ayub Khan promulgated this
Constitution in the country on June 8, 1962.
The salient features of this Constitution are given below:
1. Written Constitution:
The Constitution of 1962 was a written document. It
consisted of 250 articles. five schedules, eight amendments
and 31 Martial Law Regulations. It was divided into 12 Parts.

According to the Constitution of 1962, Pakistan was a
federation with two provinces. Both the provinces i.e. the East
Pakistan· and the West Pakistan were given equal
representation in the National Assembly. Both the prov inces
had an equal number of representatives in the Electoral
Colltege, 40, 000 each. The powers of the Central Government
were explained in the Constitution. The remaining powers were
transferred to the provinces.

16
Chapter 4
of Basic Democracies for a tenure of five years. All the

executive powers rested with the President. He was conferred
upon unlimited powers of litigation The members of the cabinet
were answerable to the President instead of the National
Assembly. All the appointments against key-posts were made
by the President.
4. Rigid Constitution:
Under this constitution, two-third majority of the
parliament could amend 1he constitution but the authentication
by the President was compulsory to make this amendment
valid.
· 5. Unicameral Legislature:
Like the constitution of 1956, unicameral legislature was
introduced in the Constitution of 1962. It was named as the
National Assembly �o be elected by an electoral college
through indirect elections for five years. Both the provinces had
equal representation in it.
6. Single Citizensh iip:
Like the Constitution of 1956, the Constitution of 1962
enforced the principle of single citizenship in Pakistan. All the
citizens of Pakistan were neither the citizens of the East
Pakistan or the West Pakistan. Rather they were the citizens of
Pakistan.
7. Fundamental Rights:
Fundamental Rights were menlioned in the constitution
and these rights were guaranteed. No law could be made in
violation of the rights laid down in the constitution. No

The first amendment, therefore, rectified this article and the
country was designated an "Islamic Republic of Pakistan". Only
a Muslim could be qualified for the election as President The
Muslims shall be enabled individually and collectively, to order
thejr lives in accordance with the fundamental principles and
basic concepts of Islam. No law shall be enacted which is

Chapter 4
Q.8 Describe the causes of the separation of East

Pakistan.
Ans: Causes of Separation of East Pakistan:
East Pakistan was the right wing of the federation of
Pakistan. This wing separated from us in 1971 due to internal
and external reasons. Thus Pakistan was cut in to two pieces.
The causes of separation of East Pakistan are mentioned
below:
1. Ayub Khan's Dictatorial Era:
Ten years dictatorial regime of Ayub Khan was imposed
on Pakistan. "State of Emergency", imposed permanently, gave
protection to the bure�ucracy. They adopted such policies of
oppressing people as caused the reaction of the people
internally. The people of East Pakistan could not afford this
situation and were forced on separation
2. Lack of National Leadership:
Pakistan lacked the patriotic leadership after the death
of Quaid-e-Azam -::1- ,.iii ;.,� and Liaquat AH Khan. The leaders of
Pakistan Muslim League thought that it was only their right to
rule the people. Due to this, the ministries of Muslim League
could not win the trust of the people. The Leaders of the
Muslim League could not understand the problems faced by
the people because they were not in constant contact with the
people. It caused the separation of East Pakistan.
3. Poor Economic Condition:
East Pakistan suffered always poor economic
conditioris. Before partition of India, Hindu industrialists and
landlords were the cause of economic sufferings of West
Bengal. Now, once again Hindus dominated the economy of
East Pakistan. Despite all the efforts, it remained backward
economically as compared with the other provinces of
Pakistan. This created a sense of deprivation amongst the local
people that led ·to the separation of East Pakistan.
4. Negative Role of Hindu Teachers:
After the establishment of Pakistan, the governments
failed to inculcate and create the spirit of Pakistani nationalism.
On the other hand, Pakistan's opponent group succeeded in
continuing their negative activities. Unfortunately, Bengali
Muslims had always been backward in education than Hindus
19
Chapter 4
Therefore, Hindu teachers were in majority in schools and

colleges who tarnished the minds of new generation with the
idea of Bengali nationalism. They prepared them to rebel
against the Ideology of Pakistan. It paved the way for getting
separation from West Pakistan.
5. Issue of Bengali Language:
fhe issue of Bengali language. played a vital role in
disintegrating the national unity. Urdu was declared the national
language of Pakistan after Pakistan came into existence.
Bengalis launched a movement in favour of Bengla but
because of the extra ordinary influence of Quaid-e-Azam�.;,, ::f.,
this movement was suppressed for the time being. Bengla and
Urdu were recognized as national languages in the constitution
of 1956 but it could not obviate the charter of Bengalis.
6. Provincial Prejudices:
The population of East Pakistan was 56% of the total
popU1lation of Pakistan. East Pakistan was one of the five units
of Pakistan but politicians of East Pakistan demanded their
representation in the National Assembly according to the
proportion of their population. The politicians of East Pakistan
and West Pakistan stood against each other on this issue. It
caused the partition of country into two parts.
7. Territorial Politics of the Politicians:
In 1954, Muslim League lost Elections in East Pakistan.
The arena of politics went into the hands of Suhrawardy,
Bhashani and Fazl-ul-Haq who in order'to snatch power from
each other started supporting Hindu members of the Assembly.
They used negative tactics to combine people with them. Thus,
these politicians practiced the policy of make and break to get
the chair of power.
8. Conspiracies of Big Powers:
India signed a 20-Year Treaty with Russia. This Treaty
combines the interests of India and Russia in South East Asia.
India got equipments as well as technical support from Russia
according to her wishes to launch some operation. America
was also involved in these conspiracies. It was proved because
when Israel supplied American manufactured armaments to
India, America did not object to it. But as. soon as Saudi Arabia
and Yemen expressed their wish to provide Pakistan with
20
Chapter 4
armament, America stopped them to do so. Anyway, the

separation of East Pakistan was the secret agreement of big
powers.
9. Six Points Formula of Sheikh Mujeeb-ur-Rehman:
Six-Points Formula of Sheikh Mujeeb-ur-Rehman
proved fatal and last labour in the separation of the East
Pakistan. He wanted that provinces should be made separate
states and semi-federation state should also be established.
Sheikh Mujeeb-ur-Rehman said to the economically down
trodden people, "Unless the slavery of West Pakistan comes to
an end, you cannot prosper." He succeeded in his self made
drama of the independence
10. Bhutto - Mujeeb-ur-Rehman Differences:
Bhutto - Mujeeb-ur-Rehman differences escalated the
issue of separation Dialogues were held to remove the
differences but all in vain. Mr. Bhutto boycotted the session of
National Assembly to be held on 3 March, 1971 at Dhaka. It
increased distances between East and West Pakistan. It
caused sep_aration.
11. Success of Regional parties:
No big political party could win Elections in both of the
provinces Awami League of Sheikh Mujeeb-ur-Rehman won
the Elections in East Pakistan whereas Pakistan Peoples' Party
succeeded in West Pakistan. National Awami Party (NAP) of
Wali Khan and Jamiat-ul-Ulema-i-lslam (Hazarvi Group) got
successful in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Balochistan. No party
deserved to be called nati1onal party that power was transferred
to it. Awami League had won a clear majority but could not get
power This resulted into the separation.
12. Military Action:
Sheikh MuJeeb-ur-Rehman announced revolt on 23rd
