Timeline
He died on 18 December 2006 of cardiac arrest in Karachi at the age of 83, leaving behind a wife, two sons and three daughters.
He was an active member of the Pakistan Writers' Guild and a member of the Progressive Writers Association which was then and still is a part of the larger organization, the Progressive Writers Movement in the India-Pakistan subcontinent. Shaukat Siddiqui worked at the news-desks of the Karachi newspapers Times, Pakistan Standard, and the Morning News. He finally got promoted to be the editor of the Karachi Urdu language newspapers Daily Anjaam, the Weekly Al-Fatah and the Daily Musawat, before finally saying goodbye to journalism in 1984.
If one looks at the full text of Part 1 of the novel Jaangloos, then one sees that the last page of Part-1 of this novel "Jaangloos" has the dateline "Karachi, September, 1978" printed as the last line of this page. This is an important fact because one year after the appearance of Part-1 of Jaangloos, Amjad Islam Amjad wrote the screenplay for the Pakistan Television drama serial "Waaris" which was broadcast in 13 one hour long episodes starting in December, 1979. More importantly, the central plot and characters of Waaris are identical to the plot and characters of Jaangloos. However, Amjad Islam Amjad never acknowledged that he had adapted/copied Shaukat Siddiqui's novel Jaangloos into the drama serial Waaris.
The novels Kamin Gah (1956), Jangloos (in three volumes, first volume dated September, 1978), and Char Deewari (1990) are fictionalized accounts of his childhood in Lucknow, India.
Siddiqi's first short story, "Kaun Kisi Ka", appeared in Weekly Khayyam in Lahore, Pakistan. In 1952, his first collection of short stories, Teesra Admi, was brought out and proved to be a great success. Subsequently, other collections of short stories followed: Andhere Dur Andhere (1955), Raaton Ka Shehar (1956) and Keemya Gar (1984).
Shaukat Siddiqi (Urdu: شوکت صدیقی; 20 March 1923 – 18 December 2006) was a Pakistani writer of fiction who wrote in Urdu language. He is best known for his novels Khuda Ki Basti (God's Village) and Jangloos.
Siddiqi was born on 20 March 1923 in a literary family of Lucknow, British India. He gained his early education in his home town and earned a B.A. in 1944 and an M.A. (Political Science) in 1944. After the partition of India, he migrated to Pakistan in 1950 and stayed in Lahore, but soon permanently settled in Karachi. His early days in Pakistan were full of financial trouble and political opposition, which he soon overcame. He accompanied Zulfikar Ali Bhutto on several foreign tours.
