Will Janab Liaquat Ali Khan answer the following Questions?

 1. In view of the fact that the Historic Lahore Resolution is the basis of Pakistan envisaging autonomous and sovereign states in different regions, why have the principles thereof been completely ignored in the recommendations of the B. P. C.?

 2. Don't you admit that East Pakistan being separated from the other wing by two thousand miles of foreign territory must have complete autonomy in all its affairs for its stability and prosperity?

 *3. It has been stated in the Objective Resolution that the Sovereignty of Pakistan belongs to its people. Has not the provision of suspension of the constitution by the Head of the State nullified the very basis of the Objective Resolution and made the people Subservient to the whims of the Head of the State?

 4. Don't you admit that the power to suspend the constitution is fraught with grave danger to the rights and liberties of the people as it is calculated to create a positive tendency in the Executive to lapse into dictatorship?

 5. What is the idea behind creating an Upper House-the relic of medieval feudalism and of giving equal powers to both the houses of legislature? Is it not designed to curve the majority into a minority and to retard all progressive legislations?

 6. Is it not absolutely arbitrary and in flagrant violation of the demand of sixty-two percent of the population to recommend Urdu as the only State language whereby the claim of Bengali has been completely turned down?

 7. Is it not absolutely undemocratic to make provincial ministry responsible to the central cabinet instead of to the provincial legislatures?

 8. Don't you admit that the suspension of the right of Habeas Corpus for persons detained without trial in court is absolutely incompatible with any concept of democracy?

 9. Don't you admit that the usurpation of the control by the centre of the affairs of the East Pakistan for the last three years has caused disastrous consequences on the economic and cultural life of the people in the following amongst others?

 (i) (a) Abnormal fall in the income of Jute-114 crores in 1948, 75 crores in 1949 and only 35 crores in 1950?
