[quote]
Barely a few months after he was forcibly evicted (only to be restored) from his official residence, Z H Zaidi, the renowned researcher and the curator of Jinnah Papers has passed away.
In a country where people are left unconnected to their heritage, the loss of great men like Ahmed Hassan Dani, Khalid Hasan and now Zawar Hussain Zaidi is accutely felt. Z H Zaidi, as he was known, was a lone crusader who spent last decade and a half liberating Quaid-e-Azam Mahomed Ali Jinnah’s Papers from government’s stranglehold. His is a profound loss though the work he has done shall remain easy reference for generations to come and one day when Pakistan will relive the legacy of Mr. Jinnah as a progressive and modern republic, we shall honor Zaidi and many like him for the great the work that they undertook on behalf of a nation that was till then in deep slumber.
