He argued that the Haryana region was culturally and linguistically distinct from the rest of Punjab, and that it would be better off as a separate province. The demand was not accepted by the All India Muslim League, but it was revived in the 1960s and 1970s by the Haryana Jan Sangh and the Haryana Vikas Party. In 1966, the Haryana region was finally separated from Punjab and made into a separate state.
