Abstract

The storyline of Tahira Iqbal's novel; Neli Bar examines various facets of politics, state affairs, jihad, warfare, societal dynamics, and the democratic inclinations of the Pakistani populace. However, it also carries a touching message emphasizing that the USA cannot be solely blamed for every political unrest and commotion. Instead, individuals must be held answerable for their actions and shortcomings. It underscores the necessity for Pakistani citizens to acknowledge their weaknesses and chart a proactive course for the betterment of future generations. Ignoring these realities results in a detachment from genuine political circumstances. The narrative highlights a customary predisposition in Muslim nations to attribute their developmental setbacks to America, particularly citing involvement in conflicts and warfare. Such themes are intricately woven into the storyline of Neli Bar, which serves as a reflective lens on Pakistan's political history. By scrutinizing events through this lens, one gains profound insights into the nation's political trajectory and its repercussions.
