July 10th, 1947 77 years ago

Clement Attlee, the British Prime Minister, recommended Muhammad Ali Jinnah to be the first Governor-General of Pakistan. This significant decision came shortly after the partition of British India, which established Pakistan. At this crucial time, Jinnah's leadership was seen as vital for guiding the newly formed state through its initial challenges and establishing a governance framework. The decision underscored the reliance on Jinnah to provide stability and direction in a period marked by socio-political upheaval and communal tensions.
