Abstract

The Pakistan Movement, a geopolitical movement that originated in East Bengal and spread to the North West Frontier Province, attracted Muslims from all over the subcontinent. Leaders from across the subcontinent worked diligently to inspire and mobilize people in support of this noble cause. These initiatives influenced both urban and rural leaders. People in the former princely states around the northwestern border regions were extremely supportive of the Pakistan Movement. The people in the former princely states of the NWFP welcomed the Pakistan Movement with open arms as well. The former state of Chitral, with considerable autonomy granted to its "Mehtar," was ruled by the British government. Mehtar, a descendant of the Katoor dynasty, ruled Chitral from 1594 until the state was annexed by Pakistan. The religious scholars, both men and women, along with the monarch, worked tirelessly for the noble cause of Pakistan
