Abstract

We have inferred or construed a hantle of definitions of 'Afsana' (short story), but we never endeavored recognize or determine it's worth and significance as genre of literature. If there is made any such attempt then short story is put on minor scale or as an inferior form of art, just to avoid oneself from falling into further complexities. It's not pondered over that every genus has it's certain inescapable characteristics throw which it proves it's value and weight and justifies its existence. Often we avoid venturing with such questions, whenever there is a debate about the existence and the validity of 'Afsana' for intense what is the significance of 'Afsana' along with the novel? Eighter there is any distinction between novel and Afsana? Why Afsana appeared in the arena of literature, when the novel and poetry were justly quenching the literary thirst? If any genre can be inferred without it's validity? If yes then is it sensible or logical to welcome or accept or assent it for a long time? This research paper not only deals with such questions but also tries to tackle or conclude this debate with certain logical and trust worthy arguments.
