KARACHI, Dec 26: Those associated with the Sindh Madressatul Islam feel proud that their institution is the alma mater of the Quaid-i-Azam, Muhammad Ali Jinnah. This was stated by acting principal of the Sindh Madressatul Islam, Shabbir Ahmed Qureshi. He was speaking to the students of the institution at a function held here on December 25 to mark the 130th birth anniversary of the Quaid-i-Azam.
