Abstract
The trend of anti-imperial studies is found in Urdu to some extent in the context of post-colonialism, but with special reference to Balochistan, it is still an undiscovered topic. No such work has been done at the theoretical level in Balochistan so far. While the creation of Urdu fiction here is about a hundred years old. During this time, about two dozen novels and dozens of fiction collections have been published here. This creative work has so far not been seen in the background of any theoretical discourse or theory. However, Yusuf Aziz Magsi is considered to be the first Urdu fiction writer in Balochistan. During the 1920s and 1930s, he resisted the imperial forces in Balochistan practically and penically. He is one of the first leaders who started pen struggle in Balochistan. Condemnation and resistance against every form of imperialism is found in his writings. In the said article, an attempt has been made to explore this element in Baluchistan's first Legendary Urdu short story.
