Who among the following leaders neither moved nor seconded the historic Lahore Resolution of the Muslim League passed in March 1940?

  1. A
    Khizr Hayat Khan
  2. B
    M. A. Jinnah
  3. C
    Fazlul Haq
  4. D
    None of them

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

The Lahore Resolution was formally moved by A. K. Fazlul Huq (the Premier of Bengal) and seconded by several prominent leaders like Choudhury Khaliquzzaman. Muhammad Ali Jinnah delivered the presidential address but neither moved nor seconded the resolution text himself. Malik Khizr Hayat Khan (Unionist Party leader) also stayed aloof from moving or seconding it. Among the specific historical roles, Jinnah served as the President/Chairperson rather than the mover or seconder. However, checking specific multi-choice context options where Khizr Hayat Khan opposed the separate partition framework, he neither moved nor supported it. Therefore, Khizr Hayat Khan fits the criteria of someone who explicitly distanced from endorsing it.
