Who was the founder of the Jamia Millia Islamia?
- a.Dr. Zakir Hussain
- b.Muhammad Ali
- c.Saukat Ali

Answer: (A) Dr. Zakir Hussain
Jamia Millia Islamia (1920) actually had several co-founders — Mahmud Hasan, Hakim Ajmal Khan, Mohammad Ali Jauhar and Mukhtar Ahmad Ansari among them — but Dr. Zakir Hussain, a genuine founding member who later served as its long-time Vice-Chancellor and shaped its growth into a university, is the standard textbook answer among these options.
