    British Burma Census referred to the Muslims of Yakhine State as INDIAN MUSLIMS (Mohammedans).
    1947. Mr. Abdul Gaffar MP MAUNGDAW District petitioned the then Burma Govt. to refer to the Muslims of Arakan as ROHINGYAS.
    A similar scenario and probably earlier in Pakistan - before Partition of India, Muslims in the British Census were referred to as Indian Muslims (Mohammedans) after partition and with the establishment of Pakistan ( East & West) we now have a new name for the citizens of Pakistan ( PAKISTANI) - wait a moment not long after and in 1971 with the Bangladesh War if Liberation, East Pakisatn now became Bangladesh and the preople now become BANGLADESHI.
