Abstract: This collection of telegrams from 1945-1947 demonstrates the multifaceted nature of support for M.A. Jinnah and the Pakistan Movement as independence approached. The documents showcase absolute loyalty from grassroots levels, with groups from Shikohabad declaring they are "prepared to sacrifice their lives" at Jinnah's call. International solidarity continues with messages from Malayan Muslims and the "Muslim Brotherhood" of Nyasaland. Significant political developments are reflected in telegrams endorsing Muslim Legislators' Convention resolutions and student federations pledging support for the League's action programs.
