    Sindh played a key role in the establishment of Pakistan. It was the first province to pass a resolution in 1938 demanding a separate homeland for Muslims. Many Sindhi Muslim leaders actively supported the Pakistan movement led by Muhammad Ali Jinnah. Sindh was also Jinnah's home province, where he received his early education. By the 1946 elections, the Muslim League had become dominant in Sindh politics, winning all seats in the assembly. When Pakistan was created in 1947, Sindh was the first province to join the new nation by a majority assembly vote.
