Who did not follow Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah’s command during the Kashmir issue in 1947?

The correct answer is General Douglas Gracey. In October 1947, Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah ordered General Gracey, then acting Commander-in-Chief of the Pakistan Army, to send troops into Kashmir. Gracey refused to obey this direct command without the approval of the Supreme Commander, Field Marshal Auchinleck, who advised against it to prevent a wider war between India and Pakistan. This refusal was a critical moment in the Kashmir conflict.

• Sardar Patel was an Indian leader and not under Jinnah's command.
• Frank Messervy was the first Commander-in-Chief of the Pakistan Army, but Gracey was acting C-in-C at the time of the incident.
• Mountbatten was the Governor-General of India and not subject to Jinnah's military commands.
