“Civilization" is a methodology of purposeful creations and social values of nations living in a specific geographical region, and language is the interpreter of these values, so language and civilization are closely related. The Rachnavi civilization is related to the ancient " Harappa " civilization. This civilization is considered one of the greatest civilizations in terms of its tradition and extent. Dr. Tahira Iqbal's novel "Neeli Bar" and Prof. Iqbal Abid's Novel "Mangi Hui Mohabbat" are Valuable and momentous Achievements written in the context of Rachnavi civilization. Their work of art is also commendable in this sense that before this, there was no significant progress regarding the presentation of creative culture at the level of fiction. Although, there are many gems of creative potential in this language. After the arrival of Islam, the people who settled in this region adopted and used Arabic and Persian with open heart. The Roots of this language are similar to the language of classical Punjabi poets and ancient Urdu. Tahira Iqbal and Iqbal Abid have apotheosis the depth and richness of this language by using many insightful words in the narration of the novel. Moreover, By sweeping away the slander of "Jaangli" on this language and the dust of Incuriousness, they tried to present the true face of this civilization.
