It is very sad to read the news that a historical house in Mirpurkhas is being demolished by its owners. Quaid-i-Azam Mohammad Ali Jinnah stayed in that house on Dec 28, 1943. The house is spread over 3200 square feet and was declared an evacuee property. The house was also divided into four portions.
The Government of Sindh should take immediate action and should take the possession of that property. The house should be renovated and should be turned into a museum for the general public.
All those houses where our national leaders stayed should be taken over by the government and should be declared heritage sites. I hope that the requisite authorities will look into the matter so that this house in Mirpurkhas will not be demolished.
