Abstract

Muhammad Hafeez Khan is a well-known modern novelist, researcher, columnist, playwright, historian and translator. He is a versatile personality. Every novelist has a goal and a vision for life. He tries to present the conditions of his era, his environmental experiences and his outlook on life through his art. Mohammad Hafeez Khan has presented the exploitation and helplessness of the feminine class in some aspect in his novels. His female characters are more lively than the male characters. The writer has not only felt the existence of a breathing woman in his society but has also acknowledged her existence. Through the character of "Maheen" in his novel "Karaknath", the author has not only informed about the negative consequences of social media and internet, but also exposed the heinous actions of the police, the increasing brutality and the dark deeds of the elite.
