Explanation

The Muslim League officially passed the Lahore Resolution on March 23, 1940, demanding the creation of separate states for Muslims in northwestern and eastern India. This resolution is considered the formal demand for Pakistan's creation. The 1906 date was when the Muslim League was founded, not when partition was demanded.
