It was told that the first Urdu fiction was written in 1903.
It was also told that the evolution of fiction in the early period of the 21st century is worth considering in many ways, due to the global situation and events, there were changes in the nature of fiction.
There were different experiences regarding fiction and gradually it moved towards the symbolic. The understanding of the great creative experiences is not only in one era but also in the future.
Fiction is still being written and was written a hundred years ago, there were technical ups and downs that affected fiction, but the quality of fiction is still set.
