He was my grandfather Mohammad Fazle Amin (in later life he used the suffix of ‘Al-Umari of Khairabad’ after his clan). Fazle Amin, following his M.A, was spotted by one such team from the State of ‘Jaora’. Owing to the situation at home, Fazle Amin had no other choice but to accept the job at Jaora. And like a missing page of a book that leaves a permanent void in the story forever, Fazle Amin, too left a small dot somewhere in the long story of Pakistan. Fazle Amin died in his sleep while still young –probably in 1930, at around the age of 35*.
