In 1911 the Joint Select Committee of the Parliament in London asked Mr. Jinnah the question:
“How do you justify an advance in self-government with a literacy percentage of only 12?”
Mr. Jinnah replied:
“Did the lack of literacy prevent you from going ahead with your successive Reforms Acts which continuously enlarged the franchise? And if it is good for England why should it be bad for India?”
