These observances of Quaid’s birthday will be widely covered by the television and radio broadcasts focusing on his legacy, along with school processions, marches, and scouting rallies.
Quaid’s birthday is celebrated annually on December 25th, the day Muhammad Ali Jinnah was born in 1876 in Karachi, which was still part of British-controlled India at that time.
After studying in Bombay and London, Jinnah became a lawyer in Bombay. In 1913, he joined the Muslim League, which had been formed to stand up for the rights of Indian Muslims and he became its president in 1916.
Jinnah believed that Muslim-Hindu unity in India was possible, but over the years the relationship between the Hindu and Muslim communities had deteriorated to such a point that he reluctantly accepted that the best way to protect the rights of Indian Muslims was through partition.
In 1940, he first suggested the idea of the partition of India to create Pakistan and led the negotiations with the British government.
This resulted in the partition of India and the creation of the state of Pakistan on August 14th 1947.Following the creation of Pakistan, Jinnah became the first governor-general but died of tuberculosis on September 11th 1948.
