All you need to know about Quaid e Azam
achievements

• As the winter leaves start to fall, we once again
  approach that time of the year where the memory
  of one of the greatest leaders in Sub-continent
  history is revived from every corner of the
  country.
• Muhammad Ali Jinnah stands unique among the
  leaders of the world in that his legacy remains
  untarnished even as more and more information
  comes to light about his extraordinary personal
  life.
• Deemed the voice of a nation without a home,
  Jinnahs title of Quaid-e-Azam truly reflects the
  exalted position he occupies in the minds of
  Pakistanis. In the words of Sir Pendrel moon
  There is, I believe, no historical parallel for
  a single individual affecting such a political
  revolution . It was Mr. Jinnah who created
  Pakistan and undoubtedly made history
• While the life of Quaid e Azam has been recounted
  thousands of times and his achievements
  celebrated on both individual and state levels,
  it is of paramount importance to understand that
  a statement of facts cannot and does not do
  justice to the legacy of Jinnah.
• From a seemingly nonexistent involvement in the
  affairs of Indian Muslims, Muhammad Ali Jinnah
  shot to prominence and acquired the status of a
  beloved by the masses leader in a relatively
  short amount of time. For a lawyer, having
  stayed away from the subcontinent, the political
  stature attained was phenomenal and a testament
  to the charisma that he possessed.
• Quaid e Azams greatest value to the struggle of
  millions of Muslims in the subcontinent was the
  vision he espoused for a unified homeland. The
  laser-sharp focus required to separate
  unimportant issues from those that were
  essential to the sustainability of a future
  country, and the ability to communicate the
  vision as a coherent strategy for success, were
  an offering that no other leader in the Muslim
  League at the time excelled at. Rather than a
  fragmented view towards independence, Jinnah was
  one of the few leaders who understood that while
  a loose federation coexisting with the Hindu
  majority state was
• sub-optimal but acceptable, it was always a
  short-term fix that had to be rectified once the
  British left.
• He was also receptive towards the dynamic nature
  of the Muslim-Hindu situation to ultimately
  realize that such a fix would not be sustainable
  and pivoted towards the demand for a separate
  country.
• Even in times of desperation and acute gloom,
  Quaids personal conviction in his ideals and
  force of character propelled his agenda for
  Pakistan, forcing the British to take the Muslim
  stance as a separate and worthy policy
  directive.
• The Civil disobedience and Khilafat movements
  were highly popular but stood in opposition to
  everything that Quaid e Azam believed in. It
  would not have been unusual for anyone in his
  opposition to resort to the same type of
  campaigns, especially during the Second World
  War, to disrupt the status quo and bring the
  grievance held by the leaders of the Muslim
  league into the limelight.

However, Jinnah was farsighted in his assessment
that the British were never going to be
completely eliminated from the affairs of the
South Asian region, and no other major power
could overthrow them completely. A strategy of
alienating the British was doomed to fail in the
long run and any such push could lead to a
retaliatory policy by the imperialists that could
strengthen the stranglehold that Hindus already
exerted over the political affairs of the Indian
subcontinent. Rather than restating the
well-known actions of the man, it would be far
more poignant to state the difficult job that
Jinnah faced after partition. While the vision
for a separate homeland materialized in 1947,
the job of actually running the ethnically
diverse region and nonexistent administrative
machinery in place were seemingly insurmountable
challenges that threatened to render the new
state meaningless. A broken economy, an empty
treasury, millions of refugees entering the
nascent state with only the proverbial clothes
on their backs, and a belligerent Hindu state as
a neighbor who still desired to create a greater
India by hook or crook. These were only a few of
the challenges faced by the man who had
apparently achieved the most impressive victory
for the Muslims living in the subcontinent for
the last 200 years. At some level, Jinnah also
knew that his health would fade with the rigors
of office expected of him. Undeterred, Quaid e
Azams time in charge of the nation is one filled
with bustling activity. While he would not
remain alive to see the state he had created out
of nothing to become a sustainable entity
nationwide at least if not economically, the
foundations for a strongly Islamic country
upholding religious freedoms and civil liberties
were established under his leadership. Revamping
the depleted military command and control
structures and creating a bureaucratic vehicle to
support the administrative requirements of the
new country were initiated. The focus and
attention to detail required for creating the
bedrock of our current political, legal, and
civil systems makes Quaid e Azam Muhammad Ali
Jinnah a unique individual in the annals of
history, whose brilliance and will to create a
nation-state for the Muslims of India remains an
accomplishment without compare. For More
