Abstract

Colonel Muhammad Khan was a greatest Pakistan Army officer and a war veteran. He also served in the Indian Army of the undivided British India and was a Veteran of World War II. He was a soldier, at the same time a novelist and also a great humorist. While serving in Pakistan Army, he wrote his first book "Bajung Aamad" which was a humorous autobiography. The success of his first book earned him critically acclaimed prominence among Urdu humorists. In 1974, he went on a tour of the UK and later published his account of the UK in "Basalamat Ravi". The most important of which is "Bazam Arayan". A collection of semi autobiographical short stories. His other books are "Badesi Mazah" and "Tasneefat-ekernal Muhammad Khan". He served as an Army officer during the period of 1930-1972. In addition to being the protector of a country he was also the protector of pen. There is no doubt, about it that such writers are born centuries later.
