Mr Fowler&Fowler and Islescape,
I have noticed that you have placed the article that I have authored under the hoax category. This is based on the fact that I have not provided any references.
Mr fowler/Islescape our family has books about Mr Malhi, by Pakistani journalists, they are in Urdu. If you like I can send you a copy. However I cannot make references to it's ISBN because the material is with the family in Lahore and I am overseas in Australia.
Nawaiwaqt prints an article on Mr Malhi on his Barsi every 12th July, which states just about what my article states. So if you pick any article on the 12th of July from any year after 1991, you will be able to confirm the validity of this article.
However, the authenticity of this article cannot be disputed because I am his grandson and anyone who knows the truth about him would be me.
As to checking the validity of what I have written, it can checked by anyone in the Muslim league archives.
Also our history books mention him and Sialkot convention. How could you not have heard of it?
We have in our collection all the medals that he was awarded at these conventions and I have photographs of Malhi sahib sitting next to the quaid at the sialkot convention.
I have looked at your other articles and I can see that you have particular interest in Pakistan/subcontinent history.
I am assuming that you are more likely than not from Pakistan. If you want I can organise for the material to be sent to you.
However Mr Malhi, nor his Biography is a hoax.
Regards,
Haroon
- Dear Haroon, Thanks for your reply. That's fine and apologies for the putting the tag, but please do provide some reliable references, otherwise, sooner or later, someone else will come along, notice the lack of citations, and slap another tag on the article.

Thanks Fowler&Fowler. I will see what references I can put in. Regards, Haroon

- Hi Haroon, Agreeing with Fowler&fowler it would be really helpful if you could provide some varifiable references (online or published) to Lord Malhi for citations. You may also try searching online editions of Pakistani newspapers. --IslesCapeTalk 22:43, 14 June 2007 (UTC)
