In the light of inquiries conducted by the Committee headed by Raja Syed Mehdi, a report was submitted popularly known as Pirpur Report. On November 15, 1938 the finding of the Pirpur Report established that the Congress Governments were trying by various means to impose Hindu Culture upon the Muslims and discriminated against them, if the Muslims protested; they were branded as disturbers of the peace and the repressive machinery of government was set in motion against them. The Pirpur Report gave details of the injustices and unfair treatment meted out to the Muslims and concluded: "whatever may be the underlying principles of Congress nationalism and whatever may be the justification for the incidents, the fact remains that the average Hindu is inclined to associate Swaraj with Ramraj and Congress Government with Hindu Government". Other inquiries, such as the Shareef Report in Bihar, came to the same conclusion. Still another indictment of the Congress Government was prepared and published by A.K. Fazlul Haq in 1939.
