Abstract: A personal letter from Advocate and M.L.A. Z. Jt. Lari to Muhammad Ali Jinnah, President of the All India Muslim League. Written on 6th July 1946 from Allahabad, the letter references Lari's previous communication and draws Jinnah's attention to the published recommendations of the U.P. Muslim League Party in the "Dawn" newspaper (6th July 1946). Lari states that the party selected him and Sir Shafaat Ahmad Khan, placing both names among the first six candidates, thereby confirming the claim made in his earlier letter.

Description: This is a letter on the personal letterhead of Z. Jt. Lari, an Advocate and Member of the Legislative Assembly (M.L.A.) from Allahabad. It is addressed to Muhammad Ali Jinnah at the All India Muslim League headquarters in Bombay. The letter serves as a follow-up and provides printed evidence (from the "Dawn") to support Lari's position regarding his nomination by the U.P. Muslim League Party. It is a primary source document reflecting the internal political processes and communications within the Muslim League on the eve of Indian Independence and Partition.
