Best Answer

Gandhi proposed Jinnah as first prime minister of independent India just to avoid partition of India in the name of religion. He tried to convince Jinnah so that he could give up his aspirations for a separate state for Indian Muslims. But the proposal was rejected by congress itself! The standoff between Muslim League and Indian National Congress prolonged until both sides agreed for partition.
