Abstract

Mumtaz Shereen is included in the list of prominent fiction writers and critics of 
Urdu literature. His criticism enters the realm of creation without forgetting its 
responsibilities, which also gives critical insight and a sense of literature. In every 
critic and writer there is a reflection of real awareness and contemporary 
consciousness. She is a part of the society and is enduring problems and 
difficulties like a common man. It cannot be that a creator is alienated from the 
contemporary consciousness. A study of Mumtaz Shereen criticism reveals that 
she possesses characteristics such as extensive reading, expressive depth, 
moderation, and impartiality. In this paper, the writer has tried to find the echo of 
contemporary consciousness in the critical writings of Mumtaz Shirin and has 
concluded that his criticism is embellished with consciousness.
