"Urdu Adab" journal was being published, after every two months, under the

co-editorship of Saadat Hasan Manto and Hasan Askari. However only two numbers of

it was being published, but due it's uniqueness, it successfully gained much

significance among other contemporary renowned journals. According to available

published content and resources on Manto, it is believed that this program was closed

after issuing of these two numbers. But in this research article, this fact is going to

reveal with the references of some unpublished letters of renowned literary

personalities written to Manto that Manto had worked on compilation and editing of

Urdu Adab's 3rd number. In this research article for the very first time it is going to

discuss about the Urdu Adab journal's 3rd number and also about the record of Manto's

seven months routine and efforts.
