The above statement is true.
The Muslim League started to turn away from Congress and its goals in the 1930s. In the 1937 provincial elections, the Muslim League received less number of seats. Congress rejected the demand for a united government.The Muslim League spread the myth that Congress didn't care about Muslims' well-being. Since there were many Muslims in Congress, this viewpoint was rejected. In 1940, the Muslim League passed a resolution demanding independent states in the Muslim majority areas.
Hence, the Muslim League demanded a separate electorate for Muslims.
