Punctuality Chaudhry Sahib was an extremely punctual person. He was ever mindful of that in his daily routine and urged others to do the same. In fact, he trained them practically. Once, he started a study circle in London that was attended by young students. The time for the class was fixed and he made it clear to them that the time will be adhered to. He used to come a few minutes before the class and shut the door at the fixed time. Late-comers were not allowed in. Consequently, all the students became punctual in a couple of days. When Chaudhry Sahib was appointed the President of the General Assembly, he maintained his tradition of starting the proceedings on time. Thus, he gave a practical lesson of punctuality to the members of the assembly who were usually casual about time keeping.
