Explanation:

·While the Congress leaders languished in jail, Jinnah and his colleagues in the Muslim League worked patiently at expanding their influence.
·It was in these years that the League began to make a mark in the Punjab and Sind, provinces where it had previously had scarcely any presence
·A Cabinet Mission sent in the summer of 1946 failed to get the Congress and the League to agree on a federal system that would keep India together while allowing the provinces a degree of autonomy. After the talks broke down, Jinnah called for a “Direct Action Day” to press the League’s demand for Pakistan.
