Foreword
The National Council for Promotion of Urdu Language (NCPUL), an autonomous organisation under the Ministry of Human Resource Development, Department of Secondary and Higher Education, Government of India, has been set up to promote, develop and propagate Urdu language. To meet the above objectives the Council has decided to launch a Certificate Course for learning Urdu through the distance mode. The learning materials have been specially selected by a team of experts drawn from different Universities and Institutions as well as the in house experts.
I must express my profound thanks to Prof. Gopi Chand Sarang for allowing the National Council for Promotion of Urdu languages to publish an Indian edition of his famous anthology, Ur& Readings in literary Urdu prose, which initially was published by the University of Wisconsin Press, Madison and London in 1968, and was available later on microfiche. During these thirty tee years it has been widely used globally in places as far apart USA. Japan, Norway and Turkey. An Indian edition of this time—tested reader as a self study material will be a valuable addition for students who wish to enhance their knowledge of Urdu.
I hope this edition will be of great interest to students who have an elementary knowledge of Urdu, and wish to enjoy reading some of the best pieces of literary Urdu prose.

This book is easy to read especially for someone like me who is getting into reading Urdu. Collection of short urdu stories, however, the author is Indian and you will see a lot of the context and some words that are not pure Urdu. Having said that, I like the format of the book. It helps when there is a glossary for each story throughout the book.
