Abstract

The paper evaluates the concept of composite nationalism with special reference to Maulana Abul Kalam Azad, an intrepid
politician and eloquent intellectual. Azad’s scheme of composite nationalism was against the Muslim League’s
popular demand of separate homeland for Muslims. The scheme of composite nationalism by Azad incorporated the

themes of anti-imperialism, pan-Islamism and anti- communalism. These aspects of composite nationalism overlap

and intertwine each other in terms of inception, development and manifestation.
