Mr. Mohammad All Jinnah was born on December 25, 1876, in the city of Karachi .As student, he ,began at the Boknidas Taj Primary School in Bomby. On his return to Karachi, he joined the Sind Madrisah 4nd later the Mission High School. He matriculated from the Bombay University. His father, a leading merchant, wanted to make him join the family business but fortunately Sir Frederick Croft, a business friend of his father ,discerned in young jinnah a different promise and prevailed on his family to send him to England for further studies, Jinnah then sixteen years old, sailed for honour where he admitted in Lincoln’s Inn, and in l896qualified himself for the Bar with distinction. So in his twentieth year Jinnah was full fledged Barristerat-Law.

During his four years stay in England, Jinnah saw a close quarter the working of the parliamentary system and also had an actual for state of political life which stood him in good stead in his public career.educationsight.blogspot.com Dadabhoy Noroji was contesting a seat in the House of Commons, the first time an Indian stood for and won a seat in parliament. Jinnah threw him self into the electioneering campaign with an ardor and ability which won him the admiration and gratitude of the grand old man of India.

In 1914, Jinnah led the Congress Delegation to England in connection with the reform of the secretary of state’s council for India and to secure Indian representation on that important body. On his return, he prevailed on the League to hold its annual session at Bombay where the Congress was also meting. From 1915 to 1920, the Congress and the League sessions were held at the same place and at approximately the same time. This enabled jinnah, who was member of both, to act as a mediator all the time striving to bring about a genuine understanding and good-will between the two communities. These unremitting and partially successful effect won him the affectionate title of ‘Ambassador of Unity.” In the first Round Table Conference the Muslim League and other political parties participated.

in 1931, after a spell of Civil Disobedience the Congress also attended the second Round Table Conference Mr. Gandhi acting as its sole representative. Jinnah, according to his usual tendency and skill, pressed the Muslim demands. Owing to Hindu stubbornness no Hindu-Muslim agreement could be arrived at. The British Prime Minister had to give an award which conceded nearly all the Muslim claims. It, however, gave the residuary powers to the Governor-General and not, as Jinnah had demanded, to the province under Jinnah’s guidance, the League accepted the award where as it was bitterly assoiled by the Hindus, Jinnah scored a signal victory in February 1934 when the report of the Joint Parliamentary Committee on the Indian constitutional reform was debated in the Central Assembly accepted the Communal award until a better substitute was agreed upon by the various communities; the scheme of Provincial Government was unacceptable unless its objectionable features were removed and the federal scheme was totally opposed by the Congress party, then the largest party in the Assembly. More than any other Muslim leader, it was Jinnah who foresaw the danger of Hindu-dominated centre vis-a-vis the Muslim Majority Provinces.

The Pakistan scheme had been before the country for some years. The Hindus and British opposed any idea of division of the country. Jinnab’s task was first to rally Muslim support for Pakistan and then to convince the Hindu and the British that there was no solution of Hindu-Muslim differences except Pakistan. The Pakistan Resolution 011940 moved by Jinnah as president and adopted by the Muslim League envisaged the partition of India into two sovereign states Pakistan and Hindustan. Jinnah had now become the permanent president of the All India Muslim League by his powerful advocacy and strong organization he had built up.

Many prominent Muslim Congressmen joined the Muslim League and it became apparent to all that Muslims were solidly behind Jinnah and the demand for Pakistan. The Muslim claim for a separate state was for be first time admitted in the Cripps offer of 1942. The Hindus however continued their opposition. Jinnah repeatedly declared that the division of the country into Pakistan and Hindustan meant freedom for the Muslim and the freedom for the Hindus but Hindus delayed the solution of the problem until 1947.

In January, 1946, the long delayed election to the central and provincial legislature were held. It won all the Muslim seats in the central legislature and 427 out of 482 Muslim seats in the provincial legislature. Muslim India had given a clear verdict. The Muslim desire for a separate home land was no longer question by either the British or the Hindus. At last on the 3rd June 1947 passed the decision of His Majesty’s Government to partition British India into two separate units to be known as India and Pakistan consisting of the contiguous non-Muslim majority area and Muslim majority area was PUNJAB, N.W.F.P., STNDH, BALUCHISTAN and E. BENGAL.

Quaid-e-A.am became the first Governor General of Pakistan and died after one year and 24 days on 11th September 1948.
