Abstract: Bank balance confirmation letters (1956‑1960) for the “Quaid‑e‑Azam Mohd. Ali Jinnah Pakistan Fund A/c.” at Habib Bank’s Foreign Exchange Branch, Karachi. The account shows credit balances of approximately Rs. 43,994 (December 1956), Rs. 44,325 (mid‑1959), and Rs. 4,415 (undated).

Description: The first document (31 December 1956) requests confirmation of a credit balance of Rs. 43,994/12 for the “Quaid‑e‑Azam Mohd. Ali Jinnah Pakistan Fund A/c.” A 1957 insurance stamp and a 1959 return envelope from Habib Bank’s Central Office are included. A letter dated 2 January 1960 shows a balance of Rs. 44,325 as of 30 June 1959, with interest credited Rs. 55/40. A final, undated confirmation indicates a balance of Rs. 4,415. These records likely relate to the management of funds associated with the Quaid‑e‑Azam’s estate or charitable activities, handled by Miss Fatima Jinnah. SCANNED BY: NATIONAL ARCHIVES OF PAKISTAN.
