It highlights significant internal challenges, including complaints about local League leadership in Aligarh and Bombay, and the unauthorized formation of a 'Muslim League Board'. The file captures major communal flashpoints, such as the Arya Samaj protest against religious disabilities in Hyderabad State, and a serious dispute incited by a Hindu Sadhu against the Sasa Musa Sugar Works. It also includes petitions regarding employment bias in the Post Office, resolutions condemning Italy's invasion of Albania, and detailed correspondence about a burial ground dispute in East Khandesh.
