Abstract: A letter dated 11 November 1937 from an unnamed Muslim League worker in Bhadreswar, Bengal, to Muhammad Ali Jinnah. The writer reports on active efforts to recruit members and establish League branches in the province despite the month of Ramadan. The letter mentions encouraging public response, ongoing tours in towns and villages, and encloses a list of Central Parliamentary Board members. A second handwritten note refers to an organizing committee in Assam for press release.

Description: This document consists of a primary letter and a secondary note. The main letter offers a ground-level report to M.A. Jinnah on the expansion of the Muslim League's organizational network in Bengal following the 1937 elections. It highlights the dedication of local workers and the challenges of operating during the harvest season and Ramadan. The accompanying note, likely from a different context, requests the publication of a statement about an organizing committee in Assam. This document is significant for understanding the grassroots political work underpinning the Muslim League's growth in the late 1930s under Jinnah's leadership.
