Fair use rationale for Image:Muhammad Ali Jinnah.jpg

Image:Muhammad Ali Jinnah.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Shortest, second shortest or third shortest tenure as Prime Minister?

In the article lead we read:

"...Chundrigar's tenure is the second shortest served in the parliamentary history of Pakistan just after that of Nurul Amin who served as prime minister for 13 days. Chundrigar served for just 55 days.

but in the section "Shortest tenure as Prime Minister" we read:

"Chundrigar served the shortest term of any Prime Minister in Pakistan: 17 October 1957 – 11 December 1957, 55 days into his term."

Can this discrepancy be resolved?

I looked at the article List of prime ministers of Pakistan for help, but to no avail. That article shows that Chaudhry Shujaat Hussain was (caretaker) Prime Minister for 50 days, suggesting that Chundrigar served the third shortest tenure as Prime Minister. Strangely, the lead of the List of prime ministers of Pakistan article also claims:

"The premiership of I. I. Chundrigar was the shortest in Pakistan's history, serving only 55 days of his term."

Place of birth disputed

Editor PeerBaba inserted Godhra, Gujarat into this article as Chundrigar's place of birth. Although it is true that politician Prafull Goradia wrote that Chundrigar "hailed from Godhra in Gujarat",^[1] that is contradicted by other sources. Shahid Javed Burki wrote, "Chundrigar was born in Mumbai (Bombay)".^[2] A less convincing author wrote that he was "born in East Punjab in 1898"^[3] (all other sources say 1897). Modern day newspapers commemorating his death anniversaries say he was born in Ahmedabad.^[4]^[5]

Sources that would usually state a person's place of birth (obituaries, encyclopedias) omit that information for Chundrigar, suggesting that it isn't known with certainty. Can anyone suggest an authoritative source, or demonstrate an academic consensus?
