Subject: Jinnah
Here are some interesting facts on the Lohana roots of Mohammad Ali Jinnah
the founding father of Pakistan .

He was the grandson of Premjibhai Thakkar (Gondal), who, to support his
family, entered into the trading of fish
within the coastal town of Veraval . His business, however, clashed with the
strong moral ethics of the Lohanas and as a result he was ostracised from
the community. He made enough money in this trade and attempted to
rejoin the community. He also discontinued the fish business. The Lohana
leaders, in their wisdom, did not accept his request `think about the course
of history, if they did not have inflated egos and welcomed him back`.

Premjibhai' s son Punjalal Thakkar (Jinnah's father) was enraged at his
father's humiliation and reacted like any other Lohana - with equal and
opposite force. He adapted the Muslim religion and changed the
names of all his four sons. However, he continued to use his Gujarati
nickname:
Zino (pronounced Jinno in old fashioned Gujarati) which means 'Skinny.'
Jinno`s son - Mohammad Ali - changed his family name to Jinnah - the
nickname of his converted father.

So, here is the fact. Ghandiji who effectively gave birth to the independent
India (Bharat) and Jinnah, who is the father of Pakistan , are both sons of
Saurashtra *(old Kathivad !) Gujarat .

This is an edited article derived from Gujarat Samachar and just clear facts
are stated.*
