The Ahrar Party was a political party, founded in India in 1930. The group was composed of Indian Muslims disillusioned by the Khilafat Movement, which cleaved closer to the Congress Party.[1] The party was based in Punjab. It gathered support from the urban lower-middle class. Chaudhry Afzal Haq was the leader of the party.[2]
The Ahrar Party also served as a type of Muslim self-defense militia against Hindu paramilitaries.[1]
