The youngest lady in the Pakistan movement was a pro activist and struggler. She was born back in 1932 in the walled city of Lahore. At the age of 14, she replaced the flag of Union Jack with the Muslim League flag hoisted at the Civil Secretariat Lahore gate. This was a mind-blowing act for all the people, especially for the women. She received a gold medal for her action and she was the first one to receive a gold medal. The brave lady said in her interview with The Guardian that “When I took down the British flag and replaced it with our Muslim League one, I didn’t think I really knew what I was doing. It wasn’t planned. I was rebellious at that age and it seemed like a good idea. I was not prepared for it to become such a big symbol of independence. They even gave me a Gold Medal for Services to Pakistan. I was the first ever to receive one.” With her this step she became the inspiration and role model for many ladies who also come out and openly participated in the struggle of creation. She had been a political lady who joined the Muslim League in 1938 and then became part of the Women Central’s Committee. She had been serving the nation till her last breath. The brave lady passed away on the 25th of Dec 2017.
