Thanks for clarification bro, Indeed that was a shameful chapter of our History. I don't know if you have read a novel "Jinnah often came to our house". They portray her as ill mannered and show her as a negative character. This is not the first time. Luckily i research and read that part of history. I love Fatima Jinnah. She is the most kind and beautiful women. Unfortunately, few of pakistani (Who are supporter of Dictators) They use shameful propaganda for such a superior personality. Mother of the nation "Fatima Jinnah"...Thanks God, They cant change this fact. Good wishes and please take care.
