KARACHI, Feb 13: Leading researcher and archaeologist Dr Kaleemullah Lashari has revealed that the birthplace of Quaid-i-Azam Mohammad Ali Jinnah is not Wazir Mansion as officially believed, but an adjacent building now called Ali Bhai Manzil.

Dr Lashari went through the old municipal, property and survey documents and found the 1866 records about plot No.14/C-4. The plot was later numbered as 23 and subsequently divided into two plots, 23/1 and 23/2.

According to him, the Quaid was born in the southern part of the undivided plot where his family lived as tenants and now it is a separate plot adjacent to Wazir Mansion.
