Abstract
Fikr Taunsvi started his writing career by platform of progressive movement of Urdu literature. The Progressives were politically oriented writers who intended social change. Their target was English rule, feudal system and social corruption in India and satire was their chief method. For these satirists socio-political situation of India has much matter to write on. Fiker wrote extensively and his satire is bitter and corrosive. Even some titles of his writings such as Satwan Shastr (Seventh Code), Chaupat Raja (The Blind Prince) and Chand aur Gadha (The Moon and Dunkey) express his aversion and hatred for politics of that time. But his writing career ended with humor that no other progressive writer of time did. Usually mode of writers changes with changes in personal life. The bitter mode and passion of Fikr abated with easiness in his life. The bloodshed of Partition was a thing of past and India has her future in her own hand that helped to change the outlook of society and apprehensions of writers. In this research paper Presentation of Social and political problems in Satire and Humor of Fikr Taunsavi the researcher has analyzed the satire of Fikr and the conditions that led him to write humor.
