History
In 1941, Sir Ganga Ram’s family established a medical school called Balak Ram Medical School, named after Sir Ganga Ram’s son. Immediately after independence in 1947, the college was closed and the school building was abandoned. However, with the help of colleagues, medical expert Professor Shujaat Ali came up with the idea of setting up a medical institute there to train female doctors. That is why Professor Shujaat Ali’s group asked Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah to name the institution after his sister Fatima Jinnah. The leader approved the use of his name. Fatima Jinnah Women’s Medical College in Lahore joined the first batch of 39 female students in October 1948 and was formally established in March 1949 by the then Prime Minister of Pakistan Khawaja Nizamuddin.
