Was the two nation theory the most important contribution laid by sir syed to the cause of Muslims? Do you agree? Give reasons for your answer
Sir Syed Ahmed khan had believed politically that Hindus and Muslims are one nation however he changed his political beliefs to two nation theory after the Hindi Urdu controversy. He asked Muslims not to participate in congress as its only aim was to secure Hindu domination over the Muslims. He was against the new democratic system which the congress was demanding at that time and British were trying to introduce in India as he believed it would have grave implications that the institution of majority (Hindus) would dominate them at every aspect. He was against the belief that appointment in government services should be by competitive examinations as Muslims were not getting education of an advanced character similar to that of Hindus. He urged British to give proper share in representation to the Muslims which were finally accepted in Morley Minto reforms so his political beliefs had a profound impact on Muslims. However his other contributions are also important such as education and reconciliation policy.
The most important contribution was in the field of education as it covers all of the aspects of his services. He opened scientific society and published Aligarh institute gazette to promote modern scientific developments among the Muslims. He also opened mohammadan educational conference in 1886 to solve the various political problems that affected Muslims at large and attracted debators and orators from different countries and introduced Cambridge style of learning. He also opened various schools such as Gulsion School at Moradabad and Queen Victoria school at ghazipur. He established mohammadan Anglo oriental college which laid down the crops of Muslim intelligentsia so it acted as the nursery of leaders who later helped in the Pakistan movement. He made every effort to make the syllabus of the institutions a great deal of western and Islamic culture. His educational reforms served double purpose. It helped to improve relations with the British and opened doors for the modern education.
Sir Syed also attempted to improve Anglo Muslim relations. The Muslims mistrusted the British as they thought that they had taken their rule from them and hated everything associated with the British. The British mainly considered the Muslims responsible for the war. He tried to remove this misunderstanding by addressing both the British and the Muslims. He wrote two influential pamphlets causes of Indian revolt and the loyal muhammadans of India and asked Muslims that Christians and Christianity could not be hated and Islam does not prohibit them from learning modern sciences and English language. He also found the British Indian association to improve relations

Therefore, it can be concluded that educational reforms were his most important contribution to the cause of Muslims as it helped to improve relations with the British and leads to the self enhancement and self improvement of Muslims and from that came the feeling of self worth. plz check this and give marks on it. thanks in advance.

why the lucknow pact came about?(7)
The Lucknow pact was signed to ironically drift away from the British and to join hands with congress as many of Muslims rights and demands were not fulfilled. The Kanpur mosque tragedy in which the Muslim mosque was demolished and the refusal to alleviate the Aligarh college to university status further enraged the Muslims
furthermore,The annulment of the partition of Bengal had made Muslims realize that such balant and backtracking by the British had put the question mark in Muslim minds about the credibility of future promises. The Balkan wars and the deplorable condition of Muslims in turkey had further compelled Muslims to drift away from the British
The emergence of liberal leadership in India such as Gok hale, sp senha, Jinnah, Gandhi who was keen to restore relations with congress and Muslims as they thought that Hindu Muslim problems are so deep rooted that some form of partition would be in evitable.
The First World War was going in the subcontinent and British needed Indian support while the Indians always saw “British weakness” as “Indian’s opportunity” so decided to put the joint venture of Hindu Muslim demands before the British to demand concessions from them.

It was the first pact in which the congress recognized Muslim league as Muslim bodies. plz check this.

why the supply of electricity is unreliable in many parts of Pakistan?(4)
Financial constraints and lack of hydroelectricity due to lack of monsoon rainfall and silting and increase in use due to urbanization and industrialization , power theft, power losses due to leakage from power lines and it is expensive to supply electricity to remote areas and rural areas.

is this information sufficient for a 4 mark question in geography?

To what extent the improvement in road railways and air can increase food supplies?(6)
Roads can carry high value and perishable food items and can serve door to door service. However they cannot carry bulky food items and is expensive over longer distances. Railways can carry high bulky food items and is cheaper over longer distances. However mismanagement and corruption can reduce its use and lack of loading and unloading facilities and is expensive over shorter distances. Air is faster and efficient and can serve internationally so import and export of food items and can be accessible to northern areas. However it can be subjected to climatic hazards such as fog, and accidents could occur and cannot be affordable by poor people. plz check this.
