Lahore, India 1935 (AHI: Anǧuman-i Ḥimāyat-i Islām)

I have read that the Taj Comp. Ltd. changed the Indian verse numbering by adopting the Verse numbers from the KFE.
I can't confirm this. The Naval Kishore prints have already the same Kufan system as has Istanbul and Cairo.
Yes, Pickthall had 18:18 split after "treshhold" (ۚج or ‍‍ط ) but that was not all-Indian practice.

But in 1935 something happened in Lahore: the Anǧuman-i Ḥimāyat-i Islām brachte zum 50 Jahr ihrer Gründung einen "fehlerfrien" Koran heraus.
