Jinnah’s biggest political failure was not to dissolve All India Muslim League on August 14, 1947. There was no need to transform All India Muslim League into any form of a ‘Muslim League’ in Pakistan. Just like Jinnah realized that the new state had to be secular in nature, he should have taken practical steps to show that on achieving the primary goal of the ‘Muslim League’, the days of religiously motivated parochial politics are over.
To this day, Muslim League (under different names) keeps functioning in a country that has over 96% Muslims.
