Early life[edit]
Shaukat Ali was born in 1873 - in Rampur state in what is today Uttar Pradesh. He was educated at the Aligarh
Muslim University. He was extremely fond of playing cricket, captaining the university team. Mahatma
Gandhi brought him into politics.
Ali served in the civil service of United Provinces of Oudh and Agra from 1896 to 1913.
Khilafat Movement[edit]
Shaukat Ali helped his brother Mohammed Ali publish the Urdu weekly Hamdard and

the English weekly Comrade. In 1919, while jailed for publishing what the British charged as seditious materials
and organizing protests, he was elected as the first president of the Khilafat conference. He was re-arrested
and imprisoned from 1921 to 1923 for his support to Mahatma Gandhi and the Indian National Congress during
the Non-Cooperation Movement (1919-1922). His fans accorded him and his brother the title of Maulana. In
March 1922, he was in Rajkot jail—Nehru Report--
Nehru Report[edit]
While still a supporter of Congress and its non-violent ethos, Ali emulated some of his colleagues in also
providing support to the revolutionary independence movement. To this end, he supplied guns
to Sachindranath Sanyal.[1] Along with his brother, Shaukat Ali grew disillusioned with the Congress and
Gandhi's leadership. Maulana Md.Ali Jauhar was in jail, so Maulana Shaukat along with Begum Md. Ali led
Khilafat Committee at All Parties Conference on Nehru Report with 30 representatives of Central Khilafat
Committee which included Md. Ifran,Mohiuddin Ajmery,Yasin Noori,S.K.Nabibullah,Gulsher Khan,Md.

Md.,Md. Jan,Ahmad Bhamriwala,Abdul Ahad Khan,Himaytullah,Md. Bakhsh and Zahid Ali. He opposed the
1928 Nehru Report, demanding separate electorates for Muslims and finally Khilafat Committee rejected Nehru
Report. Attended the first and second Round Table Conferences in London. His brother died in 1931, and Ali
continued on and organized the World Muslim Conference in Jerusalem.
In 1936, Ali joined the All India Muslim League and became a close political ally of and campaigner
for Muhammad Ali Jinnah, the future founder of Pakistan. He served as member of the Central Assembly from
1934 to 1938. He travelled over the Middle East, building support for India's Muslims and the struggle for
independence.
