Abstract: This three-document set from June-July 1941 contains correspondence between M.A. Jinnah and Syed Badruddin Ahmad, Secretary of the Bihar Provincial Muslim League. The exchange begins with Jinnah acknowledging receipt of a memorandum on Muslim grievances sent to the Bihar Governor. In the second letter, Jinnah responds to a resolution from the Bihar League's Working Committee, emphasizing that the strength of their case depends on complete unity among Bihar Muslims and advising focus on organizational work and constructive programs for social, economic, and educational uplift.

Description: This correspondence provides insight into the operational dynamics between the All India Muslim League leadership and its provincial branches. The documents show Jinnah's hands-on approach to provincial matters, his strategic advice on building political strength through unity and organizational work, and his careful attention to membership details. The exchange reflects the challenges faced by Muslim minorities in provinces like Bihar where they were politically disadvantaged, and demonstrates how the central League leadership guided provincial units in both political strategy and administrative matters.
