Jinnah
I am glad that I am afforded the opportunity to speak to you directly through this radio from Delhi. It is the first time, I believe, that a non-official has been afforded an opportunity to address the people through the medium of this powerful instrument, direct, to the people on political matters. I hope that in the future I shall have greater facilities to enable me to voice my views and opinions, which will reach directly (to) you, life warm rather than in the cold print of the newspapers.
The statement of Government, embodying the plan for the transfer of power to the peoples of India, has already been broadcast and will be released to the press and will be published here and abroad tomorrow morning. It gives the outline of the plan for us to give it our most earnest consideration. We have to examine it coolly, calmly and dispassionately. We must remember that we have to take the most momentous decisions and handle grave issues facing us in the solution of the complex political problem of this great sub-continent inhabited by 400,000,000 people.(Holdningbeabejdende)
The world has no parallel of the most onerous and difficult task which His Excellency had to perform. Grave responsibility lies particularly on the shoulders of Indian leaders. Therefore we must galvanise and concentrate all our energies to see that the transfer of power is assisted in a peaceful and orderly manner. I most earnestly appeal to every community and particularly to Moslems in India to maintain peace and order. We must examine the plan, its letters and spirit and come to our conclusions and take our decisions. I pray to God that at this critical moment he may guide us to enable us to discharge our responsibilities in a wise and as statesmanlike manner having regard to the sum total of the plan as a whole.
It is clear the plan does not meet in some important respects our point

Muhammad Ali Jinnah

...MUHAMMAD ALI JINNAH Born in Karachi to a Gujurati family, Pakistan’s founder was among the first students of a Muslim school in Bombay which was also attended by the renown Quran translator Abudllah Yusuf Ali. Jinnah also attended the school Sind Madrassat-ul-Islam in his native Karachi. From a young age, his aspirations were clearly Islamic. When he was sent to study law in England, he chose the law school the Lincoln Inn in London because it considered Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him, as one of the greatest law givers of the world. He became the youngest graduate at his school, completing his law degree at 18. Later, after returning to India and establishing a successful law practice, he joined the Indian National Congress and its movement to free India from British colonial rule. However, he became disenchanted with the party when Mohandas Gandhi, its leader, began brining Hindu religious language and symbolism into the movement. Jinnah felt this disempowered Muslims and slowed down the cause of freedom. In response, he quit the Congress and returned to England. The Muslim poet-philosopher Allama Muhammad Iqbal coaxed him back to India, inspiring him with the idea of Pakistan and the need to fight for the rights of Indian Muslims, who were not fairly represented in the Hindu-majority country, particularly in the areas of politics and employment. Jinnah rose to become president of the Muslim League and leader of the movement for Pakistan. His entry into...

Are Leaders Born or Made ?

...extroverted people, enhanced with education, training and experience. We often hear the proverb “Born to lead”, but it does not mean that leaders are born only but not made, because to be a leader you must first be a follower, true leaders do not walk in the front, they simply follow the rest. Nature may have some influence on who a person becomes. It is the upbringing of a person which either makes him leader or a follower. I think leaders are born as well as are made, because one may have the ability to lead but not the experience and skills to be a leader and skills develop through the life learning experiences. We have many examples of born leaders as well as made leaders. Mahatma Gandhi, Nelson Mandela, Quaid-e-Azam Mohammad Ali Jinnah, Martin Luther King were few of the leaders who make their way to be a leader through their dedication, hard work, experience, intelligence, qualities and skills. Then, there are some born leaders like Prophet Mohammad (P.B.U.H), Jesus, and Prophet Noah are few chosen leaders who lead people of their generation as well as still leading the generations of today. I think it all depends how one perceive about a leader, for me it does not matter that leader are made or born, what matters the most is how leaders develop their skills through their experiences and leadership is a lifetime learning activity. You are never done because there is always more to learn. There are always skills you need to...

...Introduction Jinnah was the first Governor General of Pakistan. He was the advocate of the Two Nation Theory and perhaps one of the greatest leaders in history. He worked really hard for Pakistan. His speeches, “A call to duty” was addressed to Civil, Naval, Military and Air Force Officers of Pakistan Government at Kahliqdina Hall, Karachi on October 11, 1947 and “Protection of minorities: A sacred undertaking” was broadcasted from the Pakistan Radio, Lahore on 30th October, 1947. In his speeches, he highlights the problems that were being faced by the people after the establishment of Pakistan and encourages the people in charge as well as the general community to unite in order to solve these problems and work for the progress of Pakistan. Quaid presents his arguments in an effective manner and does in such a way to give hope to the people. However, his arguments do not always build in a logical manner and he addresses the issues at random. Summary Quaid addresses the difficulties being faced by the people who were not able to make it to Pakistan and how it was important to bring them to Pakistan. He advises the Officers to favour national interests over personal interests. He talks about restoring law and order. Another important issue that he raises is the treatment of minorities and how they should not be forced to leave Pakistan and gives the Body Paragraphs Since Quaid is addressing serious problems therefore he has a serious tone. 1) A key concern that Quaid raises...

Pakistan vs Pakistanis

...have given us independence, they would still have been ruling us. No people in the whole world like to be rules by some other nation. There would have been everything but harmony. People would have been dying in the fight of getting their rights and freedom. They would still have been rioting against studying English or wearing pants. Well that was a joke! In short, nobody would have been living in peace. As far as being ruled by the Hindus is concerned, we all are fully aware of the legendary Hindu-Muslim controversy and blood-threatening conflicts. So, we would have been fighting again for freedom and rights. In both the cases, we the Muslims would have been at the disadvantage. We should thank leaders such as Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah and Allama Iqbal for getting us an independent country where we can say our prayers, fast and say “Asalam-o-alaikum” to any passerby without the fear of getting shot. Its another issue that now-a-days our ways of greeting each other have changed from “Asalam-o-alaikum” to “Hi, hello, what’s up dude? Etc.” This country was made for Muslims of Subcontinent. It is a rich country. It is rich in minerals and fossil fuels not all of which have been exploited yet as it takes a lot of capital... okay, I have decided not to go into economic and political details of Pakistan as it may astray me from my real topic here.

Pakistan

...Topic: Birth of Pakistan (1947) The British Parliament passed the Indian Independence Act on July 18, 1947. The Act created two dominions, Indian Union and Pakistan. It also provided for the complete end of British control over Indian affairs from August 15, 1947. The Muslims of the Sub-continent had finally achieved their goal to have an independent state for themselves, but only after a long and relentless struggle under the single-minded guidance of the Quaid. The Muslims faced a gamut of problems immediately after independence. However, keeping true to their traditions, they overcame them after a while. Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah was appointed the first Governor General of Pakistan and Liaqat Ali Khan became its first Prime Minister. Pakistan became a dominion within the British Commonwealth of Nations. The boundaries of Pakistan emerged on the map of the world in 1947. This was accomplished on the basis of the Two-Nation Theory. This theory held that there were two nations, Hindus and Muslims living in the territory of the Sub-continent. Sir Syed Ahmad Khan was the first exponent of the Two-Nation Theory in the modern era. He believed that India was a continent and not a country, and that among the vast population of different races and different creeds, Hindus and Muslims were the two major nations on the basis of nationality, religion, way-of-life, customs, traditions, culture and historical conditions. The politicization of the Muslim community came about as...

...see their children best from others and also want them to do something exceptional. No doubt every child is bestowed with some unshakable competence and aptitude. The embodiments of these aptitudes always touch the horizon of the sky of the world. As a writer said “Child is a father of man.” Every child is a hope of mission. But one of the most significant thing is that how can we brighten the traits of the children. “Our children should not be resultant of our surrounding.A child is a precious assert of Nation. He is the epicenter of the hopes of nation. So training of the child becomes the cause of the hope of the nation. The man’s toils bring the sense of grandeur. So this grandeur prepares the way of his mission. Muhammad Ali Jinnah was also a child of his age. Thats why he brought the revolutionary change in the history of the world. Pakistan is the result of his endless struggle. He was the hope of his nation. Ah! What would the world be to us if the children were no more? We should dread the desert behind us worse than the dark before”. A philosopher said that a good child makes a better nation. We are not here to play, to dreams to drift. We have worked to do and load to lift. Shun not struggle, its God’s...

Insurance Sector in Pakistan

...As of November 07, 2007 there were 637 companies which were listed on Karachi Stock Exchange with a total market capitalization of Rs. 4121 billion (66 billion $). This figure has registered an increase now and our Karachi Stock Market is approximately US$ 72 billion. Out of this financial sector constitutes 41% of the total market capitalization of Karachi Stock Exchange. However, the Insurance Sector is a small one and needs immediate attention for its growth, development and rapid expansion to meet the challenge of 21st Century for accelerating socio-economic growth of Pakistan with an emphasis on wider prosperity. Insurance Sector has registered a very slow growth in the history of Pakistan. Based on our research, the following conclusions emerge: 1. Listed insurance sector on Karachi Stock Exchange in terms of companies is only 4.4%. 2. Share of listed insurance sector on total listed companies on Karachi Stock Exchange is only 1.41%. 3. Out of 637 listed companies, only 29 relate to insurance sector. 4. From the birth of Pakistan till now we have added only 29 listed companies- giving us a ratio of less than 0.5 per company per year. 5. Turnover for 10 months (January – October 2007) on the Karachi Stock market was only 1.55% of the total turnover. 6.

...BIASED EDUCATION SYSTEM OF PAKISTAN AND ITS CONSEQUENCES “I go to school, I am in sixth grade, can I speak as fluently and write as efficiently as you can Madame when I will reach you age?” asked my maid’s daughter one day with a bright sparkle in her eyes. Her question caught my heart and I stared her for a moment and realized that would saying “YES” is true enough or saying “NO” is justified? Alas, I couldn’t answer her question, for even I am amazed what the answer could be. The high low standards are not only the matter of brands, luxuries and fame, this dune of difference has captured a huge market in all domains, especially the education sector. The concept of slum schools (generally known as PEELA SCHOOL culture in our society), that are being opened in most of the poor streets and eating up lot of funds in the name of providing education. A number of small private schools, charging a huge amount of fees and a lot of government school, which are only used for election purpose in our country. The gap among the classes have crushed the mentality of every person, even two persons holding same degree are not qualified at the same level. Is that they are not competent enough to learn? Or they are not wealthy enough to afford big schools, or they don’t have shaky tongues to speak so called shaky English that they can become a burger child? It is all because of ununiformed standard of education system. If we particularly have a glimpse of Pakistan, there are several boards...

In the Context of the Years of 1847- 1947, How Far Was the Partition of India in 1947 Inevitable?

...Unit 4 Historical Enquiry “In the context of the years of 1847- 1947, how far was the Partition of India in 1947 inevitable? “ Pawanpreet Dhaliwal Candidate Number-3049 In the context of the years of 1847- 1947, to what extent was the Partition of India in 1947 inevitable? ------------------------------------------------- The countries India, Pakistan and Bangladesh were once united as a whole Sub-Continent mixed with Muslims, Hindus and Sikhs ruled under the British raj in 1857. Where these countries are now, what they have become and their relationships with each other have very much been forged by the events of 1947 with Independence from Britain and the subsequent partition of India. When assessing the extent to which partition was inevitable, it can be difficult as the action itself justifies the inevitability, “Partition happened therefore it was inevitable Khaswant Singh **historian**. This tends to suggest that all history is a predetermined narrative that cannot be changed and altered.  This would very much be consistent with Indian philosophy that ‘it has happened because it was written’ this suggests the inevitability of partition is considered to be seen inevitable even before looking at the contributing factors. However from a Western and particularly British perspective, 1947 heralded not only the beginning of the end of the British Empire; but as Lawrence describes, “The end of period of history which from 1492 had seen the domination of the globe by...

Creation of Pakistan

...In this paper I have compared the modernistic and the conservative point of views, signifying the importance of both and highlighting the events that lead to the creation of Pakistan. My aim is to critically analyze the different interpretations of important events that lead to the creation of Pakistan provided by authors of both schools of thought. The premise that Muslims and Hindus are two different nations, the point that lead to The Two Nation Theory, and that there has always been a general discontent between them can neither be dated back to Emperor Aurangzeb era, (Sayeed, 1969) nor to the British regime for their policy of divide and rule (Alvi, 2002), rather seeing it logically, throughout the course of history Hindus have seen Muslims as outsiders and invaders, as history has seen that first the Lodhi dynasty and then the Mughal dynasty invaded and then ruled India. Similarly, Muslims based on their faith, had always treated Hindus as infidels, but having said so, it seems that over a period of time both communities had somehow carved out a way to live together in the social setting of India and created an amalgam of Muslims and Hindu culture. This is evident from many rituals common in both even today, for example the marriage ceremony practiced by Indian Muslims. So conflict and concord were running in parallel between the two communities and even to this day, there are many events of communal riots in India between Muslim and Hindus simultaneous with frequent events...
