Maqbool Sherwani was a National Conference member[1] who delayed the invasion of Pashtuns tribesmen from Pakistan in Baramulla, Kashmir in October 1947.[2] In this manner, he played an important role in buying time for Indian Army's Sikh Regiment troops who landed in Srinagar once the accession was accepted.[2] Sherwani was killed by the tribesmen.
Sherwani was vehemently opposed to the Muslim League and the concept of Pakistan, and had on 25 July 1944 disrupted a public rally of Muhammad Ali Jinnah in Baramulla.[3] Sherwani embraced the diverse culture of Baramulla, celebrating its Religious pluralism. Residents also recount stories that underscore his endeavors to foster unity and religious tolerance.[3]
