Description: The grave of Muhammad Ali Jinnah, founder of Pakistan, in the basement of Mazar e Quaid right underneath the symbolic grave up on the attic open to visitors. Celebrating our 73rd Pakistan Day, getting ready for next general elections to elect our 14th Parliament, the nation needs to revisit the Founder’s vision for Pakistan, simple yet comprehensive: If we want to make this great State of Pakistan happy and prosperous we should wholly and solely concentrate on the well-being of the people, and especially of the masses and the poor. We are starting in the days when there is no discrimination, no distinction between one community and another, no discrimination between one caste or creed and another. We are starting with this fundamental principle that we are all citizens and equal citizens of one State. My guiding principle will be justice and complete impartiality, and I am sure that with your support and co-operation, I can look forward to Pakistan becoming one of the greatest nations of the world. Excerpts from Jinnah’s address to the Constituent Assembly of Pakistan, Aug 11, 1947
