Author(s) Nighat Noreen

Abstract ABSTRACT "Novel" is a literary genre that mirrors the sensibilities and idiosyncrasies of the times it is written in. This unique form of literature arrived in the Indian Sub- Continent in the nineteenth century when the region was fighting the War of Independence (1857). The Urdu writers adopted this medium to depict the unjust racialism and bigotry of the British rulers and the resultant suffering, both mental and physical, of the people of the Sub- Continent. After the creation of Pakistan, that suffering, unfortunately, could not be addressed properly and it took the form of sycophancy, hypocrisy and self- aggrandizement. Therefore, the old story of the exploitation of man remained the same. The real task of a writer is to objectively analyze the social truths and to make them palatable to the readers by using his imagination and writing prowess. The true writers have always raised their voice against the conflicts, the turmoil’s and the dehumanizing forces prevalent in their respective ages. The violation of human rights and the race to surpass others in wealth and material possessions have culminated in many existential crises making them the apt themes of the novel. A careful inspection reveals that the human exploitation has always sparked the imagination of the Urdu novelists especially the ones who wrote in early twenty- first century i.e. 2000-2018. The research was conducted regarding their individual perspectives on social and financial abuse leading to man's intellectual manipulation. The study was carried out on how the advancement in science and progress caused unfathomable exploitation and misery of man and how his enhanced mental facilities destroyed his emotions. The Pakistani Urdu novel encompasses these themes effectively. Hence, the topic of the study becomes vitally important. The proposition is basically divided to five chapters for efficient introduction. (In thesis, repetition of names of novels will be seen at various places to explain three basic forms of exploitation.) The primary chapter is related to the fundamental concepts and discourses of abuse as well as the depiction of human misuse within the novel. The momentary chapter portrays the social and political misuse. An endeavor has been made to show the mental abuse of man in the setting of the developing issues of cutting-edge times. Whereas fifth chapter comprises of all the evaluations done in previous chapters.
