In the 4th decade of 20th century, two movements in Urdu literature were brought to
the horizon which grew in parallel fashion to each other. One is PROGRESSIVE MOVEMENT
and the other is the MOVEMENT OF MODERNISM. These continued even after the
independence (1947). Inspite of the sensibility and the intellectual and artistic differences
among the two movements, aspects of commonality are also found. The dream of "HUMAN
EQUALITY" is found in both. Progressive movement is known with this identity but such
perception is not attached with the Movement of Modernism. The reality is that among all the
famous poets of modern Urdu literature as M.D. Taseer, Tasadduq Hussain Khalid, N M
Rashed, Meera Jee and Their successors like Majeed Amjad etc have such dreams of "HUMAN
EQUALITY" in abundance in their poetry. In this aspect, the modern Urdu poets are the
harbingers of "HUMAN EQUALITY".
