"Jinnah never did anything to help my father's practice."

- Reflecting on his father's association with Muhammad Ali Jinnah, Iqbal Chagla said that his father's opinion was that Jinnah was known to be a fine advocate but not good at law. "He was a cold hearted man." When M.C. Chagla joined Jinnah's chambers, he had no income or money to speak of. Despite knowing this, Jinnah never did anything to help. When a solicitor would come and ask him which junior he would like, Jinnah would reply saying there were so many juniors at the Bar and any one of them would do. The solicitor then approached Mr. Velinker in the next chamber, who promptly suggested that his junior be briefed.
Iqbal Chagla also recounted the story of Sir F.E. Smith, the noted early 20th century British lawyer and his senior. When his senior, who was on a holiday in Europe, was contacted for a matter, he said that he would be unable to come back. When asked for suggestions about whom the brief should be given to, he suggested that they engage "FE". That was the start of Sir F.E. Smith's career. When this appeared in a newspaper, M.C. Chagla dutifully cut it out and left it on Jinnah's desk for him to read. Jinnah read it, scoffed, and threw it into the waste paper basket. "He never helped him at all", Iqbal Chagla said.
The book 'Roses in December' (Justice MC Chagla's Autobiography) should be a compulsory read in Indian schools. Only Indian Autobiography worth reading
I agree.It is an honest biography of a no-nonsense man.Enjoyed it many decades ago.
i have read the novel. the book absolutely amazing 👍
Jinnah was a TOP man. Hands Down.
I totally agree with Siddhartha Sinha, I am currently reading the book. I am enjoying ever written word. the simplicity and clarity of mind and body. I believe that it is one of my finest book
good
Jinnah was a rather arrogant man. And yes he did not really have any part to play in developing the career of FE Smith.
Jinnah just shared Hamburgers, Ham-Sandwiches and gave company to MC Chagla for drinks. 😉😊😄😆🤣
Jinnah is the greatest leader of last 300 years' political history. But today's Pakistani leadership is a shame on his name.
It was Nehru and Patel who decided to get rid of Gandoo Jinnah. Gandhi was against division of India and was willing to accept Jinnah as a first governor General. so don't come here and lecture us. What fuck is 'ghazalli'? what's your heritage, you fake bastard.
@Vaishnav M N LOL. A peaceful struggle and amongst Hitler etc? How come?
@@attorneyumarghazalli kudos to you for your peaceful rebuttals to their ramblings
@@mullahdopiazza817 Well I know who I am. And you from "Mulla "2" piaza". I didn't say anything. You said that.
@@randomdosing7535 Thanks.
To become Pakistan's Founder, Jinnah assisted the British in dividing India, disregarding the division of Muslims into 3 parts.

Muhammad Ali jinah was great leader who pridicted today's India back in 1940s
Did he predict India would be this far ahead of Pakistan? Did he also predict that Pakistan would become an illiterate terrorist country. Jinnah was an arrogant idiot who lived in fool’s paradise.
@Bhakt Slayer Due to Jinnah, hatred flourished among muslims, hindus and sikhs. What Modi is doing as a blood thirsty arrogant, Jinnah and Nehru already did it specially since 1945 till 1948 approx.
