Correct Answer:
A. 10th August 1947
The first session of the first Constituent Assembly of Pakistan was held on 10th August 1947. This significant session took place just days before Pakistan officially gained independence, marking the formal beginning of the legislative and constitution-making process for the new nation. Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah addressed the assembly on August 11, 1947, delivering his famous speech emphasizing equality, religious freedom, and rule of law, setting the guiding principles for the future state.
- Option B, 14th August 1947, is incorrect. This date is Pakistan's Independence Day, when it officially became a sovereign nation. While a momentous day, the first session of the Constituent Assembly preceded it.
- Option C, 15th August 1947, is incorrect. This date refers to the day after Pakistan's independence, and while early sessions might have continued around this time, the very first session was held earlier.
- Option D, 11th September 1947, is incorrect. This date is the first death anniversary of Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah (in 1948), or simply a date well after the initial formation and first session of the Constituent Assembly. The foundational session occurred much earlier to prepare for the new state.
