“Quaid-e-Azam M.A. Jinnah Paid Subsidy for Pakistan:

1945-1946 Elections Manipulated.”

“…Jinnah is receiving a sum of six lakhs [600,000] of rupees annually from the Government of India…”

¯ The Modern Review, Calcutta, December 1945

A payment of Rupees 600,000 was made to Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah (founder of Pakistan) by the Government of India and the 1945-1946 elections were rigged. These key facts have been revealed by scholar and historian Nasim Yousaf in his most recent article entitled “Quaid-e-Azam M.A. Jinnah Paid Subsidy for Pakistan: 1945-1946 Elections Manipulated.” In this work, the author has quoted famous leaders’ grievances regarding the elections and provided information on the sources where news about the payment to Mr. Jinnah appeared. The work has been published in the USA on Kindle (ebook reader) and can be downloaded in many countries (wherever Kindle is sold and on any computer) via the large online bookseller www.amazon.com.

According to an abstract of the said article, in the 1945-46 elections held in the Indian subcontinent, the All-India Muslim League experienced a sweeping victory. How did Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah (who became founder of Pakistan in 1947) and his party, the All-India Muslim League, achieve a sweeping victory and emerge as the sole representatives of the Muslims in British India? What were the widespread reactions of the public? This piece uncovers the facts behind this victory, so that Pakistanis, the people of the region, and others interested in the history of the Indian sub-continent can be exposed to the truth (for more information on the 1945-1946 elections, also see Chapter 8 of Mr. Yousaf’s book entitled “Hidden Facts Behind British India’s Freedom: A Scholarly Look into Allama Mashraqi and Quaid-e-Azam’s Political Conflict”).

The author of the piece, Mr. Nasim Yousaf, stated the following regarding his works:

“The criticism in my works (past, current and future) is not meant to disparage or demean anyone. My utmost desire is to end hate, conflicts, and controversies between Pakistan and India. If, through my works, I have unintentionally hurt anyone, please do not hold bad feelings against me in your heart. I seek your blessing to bring people together, whether Muslims or non-Muslims. I would like to see all races - regardless of region, color, class, or creed - united and respecting one other.”
