Abstract: This brief letter from S. Wazir Hasan to M. A. Jinnah addresses two issues concerning certain gentlemen (likely Muslim leaders or constituents) in Punjab. First, it mentions their intention to support the Muslim League in the upcoming Punjab Council elections and their expectation of reciprocal support from Jinnah. Second, and more urgently, it highlights their grievance against the Punjab Government for preventing the performance of certain religious rights under Section 144 of the Criminal Procedure Code. Hasan urges Jinnah to meet with them and assures that he will also discuss the matter personally, emphasizing the legitimacy of their complaint and the need for the League's active intervention.
