Abstract

Brigadier Siddique Salik was high profile military officer. He served as 8th director general of ISPR (Inter Services Public Relations). He was a combat artist,great humorist, illustrious novelist and notable memoirist. In his books "Main Ne Dhaka Doobtay Dekha" & "Witness to Surrender" he explains various phenomenal facts that led to the fall of Dhaka and creation of Banghladesh. He depicted a clear picture of our social life and its both sides, poverty and feudalism in "Emergency & Pressure cooker". He can observe the lighter sides of anything while writing about war or anything else going pitiful. He has great courage of smiling at the miseries of life; as he does in "salute" & "Hama Yaran dozakh". His wit, satire, allegorical and symbolic style differs him from the other Humorist writers. He is remembered as strongest pillar of our literary edifice. There is no doubt about it that such writers are born centuries later.
