Abstract
Qazi Mohammad Isa was a prominent political leader from Baluchistan who
played pivotal role in the Pakistan Movement. As right hand of Quaid-i-Azam
Mohammad Ali Jinnah, the founder of Pakistan, he organized the Muslim League
in Baluchistan as its President during 1939-1947 and did help popularize the
Pakistan Movement in the Baluchistan province. As member of Central Council of
the All India Muslim League, he also toured different provinces of British India
especially the Sindh, Punjab and NWFP (now KPK) and strengthened cause of
Pakistan. He played major role in uniting the Sardars and Chiefs of Baluchistan
for the cause of Pakistan and made Baluchistan join Pakistan according to the
electoral principle set by 3 June 1947 Plan. Though, certain Sardars were against
him because of his anti-Sardari system in Baluchistan, yet he successfully carried
forward his stance. His services and contribution are addressed and discussed in
detail in this paper.
