How far does it explain why the khilafat movement was formed?

Answer 1

It explains that khilafat movement was being prominent because the britian broke their promise of not breaking the turkish empire and they also said that they would respect the rights of khalifa but unfortunately this did not happened... they had split up Germany (treaty of versallies) and then the british prime minister announced that

turkey would receive the same treatment as did germany and Austria .. so this outraged the muslims in indis and they organised a opposition to the british plan..and this shows that they were extremely angry were trying hard to safe their ruler as well as their religion

Answer 2

During the ww1 british wanted its support from the Indians to fight against Germany & Turkey. The muslims saw the khalifa of the ottaman empire as a religious figure head and so dis not enlist for the war. British seeing this promised to respect the khalifa after the war was over. This caused many Indians to support the British in the war.

The british divided germany and announced the treaty of serves.This caused great resentment amongst the Muslims & so KHilafat movement was founded to save the Caliph.

It is also a fact that Khilafat movement was also formed because of deep seated Muslim distrust of British. Afghanistan & persia were ruled by Russia & British according to their will. The MUSlims in the subcontinent feared that the bristish would take over Turkey & thus would rule other Muslim states such as Makkah & Madinah. So this movement was formed as a result.
