Mister Gandhi described his theory regarding “Svaraaj”(means self -rule) in his book “ Hind Svaraaj” published in 1909. After that the book had been translated in English named “Indian Home Rule” .Saadat Hassan Manto discussed the same theory of freedom from aliens in his afsana “ Svaraaj kay leye”. Manto’s political views are clearly mentioned in the afsana. This story based on true news of a newspaper of that time. In “Svaraaj kay leye” , probably, the longest short story  of Mato, he has discussed  not only political, economical , social, cultural but also psychological issues of Indians after the massacre of “ Jallianwala Bagh” and Gandhi’s rigid attitude towards youngsters life. The afsana can be called an autobiographical story of Manto.
