The plan that called for equal representation in Congress is known as the New Jersey Plan. Proposed during the Constitutional Convention of 1787, the New Jersey Plan advocated for a unicameral legislature in which each state would have equal representation, regardless of size or population. This was in contrast to the Virginia Plan, which proposed a bicameral legislature with representation based on population. Ultimately, the compromise reached was the Great Compromise, which created a bicameral legislature with the House of Representatives based on population and the Senate with equal representation for each state.

The big state plan, or the Virginia plan called for states to be represented based on population, because Virginia as a state with a large population would consequently gain considerable influence under their own plan.
The Virginia Plan proposed that both houses of Congress would be based on population.
The Connecticut Compromise (Also called the Great Compromise) settled the arguments between the two sides as the Constitutional Convention. It was a good even between the New Jersey and Virginia Plan, but more so favored the Virginia Plan. It included that the House of Representatives would have proportional representation, and that the Senate would have equal representation.
The Great Compromise of 1787 resolved state representation for Congress. The delegates first believed that Congress should be unicameral with representatives from each state, but they argued over how many representatives each state should have. Delegates from larger, more populous states favored the Virginia Plan. According to this plan, each state would have a certain number of delegates based on the population of the state. Delegates from smaller, less populous states favored the New Jersey Plan. According to this plan, each state would have the same number of delegates in Congress and equal representation in Congress. Roger Sherman from Connecticut proposed a compromise known today as The Great Compromise. He suggested that Congress consist of two chambers: House of Representatives and Senate. Each state would have the same number of representatives in the Senate. More populous states would have more representatives in the House (one representative for every 30,000 people in the state). Sherman's plan was fair to all states, so delegates from both small and large states agreed to it.
The New Jersey plan called for equal representation in congress, while the Virginia plan called for representation by population. The Connecticut Compromise eventually won out, with congress as it is today.

Large states wanted to base representation in Congress on population. Smaller states supported the New Jersey Plan, which would have allowed each state to have an equal vote.

because congress held that it was a secular party and that it also had muslim representatives.. thus congress did not accept equal representation in executive council and thus resulted deadlock and the plan failed
