Abstract: | The author discusses the Wafd party in the years 1922-1940. He tries to show that while the Wafd played the leading role in seeking the 'national aspirations' from the 'national enemy' (England) down to 1956 or later, the sectional interests and doubtful methods of its party machine for the pursuit of patronage, nepotism and graft, were already discernible in the early nineteen-twenties. |
