Abstract: This collection comprises two distinct appeals addressed to M. A. Jinnah. The first, from Tarun Sangh, Soygaon Village, welcomes the proposed Gandhi-Jinnah meeting, urges settlement of differences to achieve National Government during wartime and complete freedom thereafter, and warns that failure would be more harmful than unproportional awards. The second is a lengthy spiritual pamphlet from Amar-Joti Brother Shewak Mandal, Karachi (October 1945), presenting a "Universal Peace Formula" arguing that all human miseries—wars, famines, earthquakes—result from humanity's cruelty to animals through slaughter and consumption of leather, flesh, fish, eggs.

Description: Two disparate appeals to Jinnah—one urging urgent Hindu-Muslim political unity for India's freedom, the other advocating global vegetarianism as the solution to all human suffering—illustrating the diverse range of pleas directed to the Quaid-e-Azam.
