In the Brahui society, which is known for its conservative nature, women are still exploited under the name of Suryat (a social practice), and are subjected to blood money. If a woman dares to assert herself by choosing her life partner, she is condemned as immoral and silenced. Poetry, which is often regarded as the voice of revolution, depicts the highs and lows of society, attempting to reform it. However, the majority of Brahui poets have shown criminal neglect in addressing these matters. Even in this modern age, their poetry remains focused on the beauty of nature, the features and charms of the beloved, and the delicate nuances of romanticism. In Brahui society, the attitude towards women, under the guise of customs and traditions, has never been openly criticized in poetry or prose. Among Brahui poets, Professor Tahira Ehsaas Jattak and Afzal Murad are two poets who have openly or subtly, through hints and allusions, addressed feminist themes in their work.</p> Faiza Ali Shah Prof. Dr Manzoor Baloch Copyright (c) 2025 Makhz (Research Journal) https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 2025-07-05 2025-07-05 6 3 1 10 10.47205/makhz.2025(6-III)urdu-01 https://ojs.makhz.org.pk/journal/article/view/374 <p>This paper explores the fictional universe of Krishan Chander, a prominent voice in modern South Asian literature, whose work is marked by exceptional versatility and emotional resonance. Focusing on seminal novels such as Shikast, Ghadar, Barf Ke Phool, Ek Aurat Hazaar Diwaane, and Aasmaan Roshan Hai, the study delves into the recurring themes of defeat, love, social alienation, and moral conflict. Through a critical examination of narrative structures and thematic depth, this research highlights how Chander’s fiction not only foregrounds the anguish of the common man but also critiques the deep-rooted social evils plaguing society. Central to his work are depictions of historical trauma, personal grief, and the disruption of traditional values, all set against the backdrop of class struggle between the bourgeoisie and the proletariat. With a tone of empathy and sharp social commentary, Chander’s narratives offer a stark reflection on human suffering and tragedy, positioning his literature as a profound lens through which the fractured realities of modern South Asia can be understood.</p> Syed Nadeem Jafar Copyright (c) 2025 Makhz (Research Journal) https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 2025-07-12 2025-07-12 6 3 11 20 10.47205/makhz.2025(6-III)urdu-02
