Abstract

[In 1947, as India and Pakistan came into being as independent countries, few people dominated the headlines more than Gandhi and Jinnah. The representation of Gandhi in Jinnah’s New Delhi-based newspaper Dawn provides crucial insight into how the dominant idea of a united India was confronted and critiqued. This chapter shows how, even as Jinnah emerged the victor in his quest for an Islamic nation, the challenge posed by Gandhi, forever on the move, constrained by neither party nor office and communicator par excellence, had to be continuously countered in the columns of the Dawn.]
