Who famously stated, “Instrument of accession to India is illegal and fraudulent”?

  • (A) Quaid-e-Azam
  • (B) Liaqat All Khan
  • (C) Raja Ghazanfar Ali
  • (D) Abdur Rab Nishtar
  • Muhammad Ali Jinnah, the founder and first Governor-General of Pakistan, famously stated that the Instrument of Accession (by which Jammu and Kashmir acceded to India) was "illegal and fraudulent"
  • Even Founder and first Governor General of Pakistan, Muhammad Ali Jinnah, labeled Jammu and Kashmir’s accession to India as “illegal and fraudulent.” Once the Maharaja signed the Instrument of Accession on October 26, 1947, and Lord Mountbatten accepted it, Pakistan stood firm on the claim that the accession was done through coercion and deception, suggesting, as a result, that the Maharaja was pressured at a time when a Standstill Agreement between the state and Pakistan was already in place, resulting in such accession to India being illegitimate and not being a true representation of the will of the people of Kashmir.
