Historical Letter To Quaid-I-Azam Traced
By:
H.A. Hamied
Dr. Zakir Husain, who later became Vice-President and then Prsident of India, wrote the letter from Madras on June 10, 1947. This was among a large number of documents handed over to Mr. Rizwan Ahmad, a researcher on the Quaid, by Mohatarma Shirin Jinnah Bai.
Written on the letterhead of Jamia Millia Islamia (National Muslim University), Jamianagar, Delhi, it mentions the names of leading Muslims in the subcontinent whose services could be availed of for “Pakistan which your almost super-human efforts have brought into being.”
Dr. Zakir Husain’s letter, which begins with “Respected Quaid-i-Azam”, recalled that the latter had asked him at the Afghan Independence Day function to suggest names of persons whose services could be availed of for Pakistan. He started with the names of Sir Abdur Rahim and Sir Zafrullah Khan for the Constitution-making job and to assist them on the academic side, the names of Dr. I.H. Qureshi of the Delhi University and Dr. Mahmood Husain of the Dacca University were suggested.
After the Constitution-making issue, Dr. Zakir Husain mentioned the names of some persons related with subjects, such as finance, currency, communications, armed forces, industrial development, etc.
Three names were suggested for handling issues of finance, currency and the disrtibution of assets. They were Mr. Mohammad Ali, at that time military financial advisor to the Government of India; Mr. Zahid Husain of Aligarh and Sir Ghulam Mohammad of Bombay.
For matters relating to communications, he had recommended the names of Mr. Z.H. Khan of the Railway Board, Mr. M. Farooq, General Manager, East India Railway; Mian Nizamuddin, General Manager, Nizam State Railway and Mr. Zahid Husain who was for some time financial advisor to the Railways in India. Mr. Zahid Husain “will also be useful on questions relating to Post and Telegraph,” and to assist him the names of Sir Ghulam Mohammad and Mr. Mohammad Zaman Khan, a retired postmaster general, were mentioned.
“On questions relating to the Army, H.H. the Ruler of Bhopal and Mr. Mohammad Ali can be expected to advise on Indian conditions. On major questions of defense, I feel some foreign expert advice will be needed. But the official formal advisor should, I think, be an Indian Muslim,” the letter continued.
For matters relating to industrial development, the names of Mr. A. Ispahani, Sir Ghulam Mohammad, “and may be Mr. Akbar Fazalbhoy of Bombay should be useful.”
The letter said: “If I can be of any service in the framing of educational programs, I shall deem it a privilege to be able to do so.”
Concluding the hand-written letter, Dr. Zakir Husain said: “These are just a few names I have been able to think of. I am sure under your inspiring leadership competent Muslims will be able to give a good account of themselves in the development of Pakistan.
“I am in Madras at present in connection with a conference of the International Students Service and hope to return to Delhi by the 17th. With respectful regards, yours sincerely, Zakir Husain.”
(One can see that under Nehru even traitors, Mohammedan traitors, were given important national posts. Who can be higher than the president of the country? Theoretically, the president can call for a cease fire under shameful conditions in a war with Pakistan. We suggest that our readers read up the article Zakir Outsmarts Jawahar from our Archives columns. Nehru was fully aware of Zakir’s characteristics. Zakir was a liar and an anti-Hindu of the worst category. He did not allow the divali lights to be lit on the ramparts of the Rashtrapati Bhavan during his tenure. Can one believe it? And our people did not even whimper! And on top of that, this traitor had a mosque built inside the Rashtrapati Bhavan which is still there. If Babri Masjid has been downed, when are we going to get rid of this garbage?
This article was suppressed in India and as a result, Indians were unaware of Zakir’s very important letter, written just prior to the partitioning of the country! We took it from The Dawn of Karachi dated Aug. 14, 1990. The idea for suppression was to present the Mohammedans, even Mohammedan traitors, in a favorable light to the Hindus of India! The land of Satyameva Jayate turned out to be a land ruled by men and women with deep Islamic roots, and immoral and treasonous to boot; thus chacha Nehru died of syphilis, Indira had a son by Firoz Khan and another by Mohammad Yunus, even before a proper talaaq! Normal people call such a woman a whore and not Durga Devi! And the duffer Rajiv was a thief! Remember! Gali gali men shor hai/Rajiv Gandhi chor hai?
Readers can see how much Zakir would have loved to be hired by Jinnah. But Jinnah didn’t even call him for an interview. In Jinnah’s eyes Zakir was a mean traitor and Jinnah had no use for traitors. And we have seen how that Islamic country, talking big on Islam, treated Zafrullah Khan! And later they did the same thing with Pakistan’s only atomic scientist. This has almost become an animal kingdom!
It is time to make it obligatory to rigorously check the background of all high level Mohammedan employees of the GoI. Who are they? Currently, we have a number of them such as Salman Haidar, the Mohammedan governors of Indian provinces, all ambassadorial members such as Abid Husain, professors like Mukarram Ahmed et al. -TD)
