Abstract: A collection of official correspondence, election-related letters, and legislative assembly documents addressed to or involving M.A. Jinnah. Includes candidate communications for the 1937 elections, legislative assembly meeting notices, travel and expense bills, administrative circulars (e.g., suspension of car haulage concession during WWII), and Jinnah’s 1946 election certificate from the Punjab Legislative Assembly to the Constituent Assembly.

Description: File documenting M.A. Jinnah's official and administrative roles within the Central Legislative Assembly and the Muslim League's electoral machinery.

The 1946 certificate from the Punjab Legislative Assembly marks a key transitional moment toward constitution-making.
