India, Pakistan clash over Jinnah House
The property once owned by Pakistan's founding father has been a bone of contention for decades
Mumbai
A FRESH row has erupted in a decades-long dispute between Delhi and Islamabad over the fate of a bungalow in Mumbai once owned by Pakistan's founding father Muhammad Ali Jinnah, with an Indian lawmaker calling for it to be labelled "enemy property".
Famed for its Italian marble and walnut-wood panelling, Jinnah House, as it is known locally, has been controlled by the Indian government since Jinnah moved to the country he helped create. Pakistan has long claimed ownership of the building.
