On September 21, 1922, the Viceroy, Reading, wrote to Birkenhead, the Secretary of State for India: "I have sent you a telegram, which will show you how near we have been to a complete break between Muslims and Hindus. I have been giving the greatest attention to this possibility, and I have the greatest assistance from Shafi in my council, who is a highly respected Mohammadan."<ref>http://www.sanipanhwar.com/Facts%20are%20Sacred%20by%20Khan%20Abdul%20Wali%20Khan.pdf</ref>

The British succeeded in turning away many Muslims from the Indian Independence Cause. In 1939, Nawab Ismail Khan, a Muslim League member from UP, wrote to the British that "a democratic system at the centre is not acceptable to the Muslim community. Another Muslim League member also sent a telegram to the Viceroy saying,"The Muslims have no differences with Great Britain....They wanted Britain to stay and they are now growing popular with the Muslim community."
