Bholi was a neglected child. Explain.
Answers
Answer:
Bholi was a girl who had fallen from the cot in her childhood and because of this reason had injured her brain. She was not a normal child, unlike others. Also, she suffered from smallpox because of which she didn't look beautiful. She used to stammer and was a slow learner. This was the reason because of which she was neglected even by her parents and her siblings.
Bholi was a neglected child because of her ugliness caused by small pox, her stammering and her lack of intelligence.
EXPLANATION:
In the short story ‘Bholi’ by the renowned Urdu writer Khwaja Ahmad Abbas. Bholi was a small girl neglected by all including her parents and siblings. She was not intelligent and a very slow learner.
This was because she had fallen off from her cot and damaged her brain when she was very small. She stammered while speaking. Her looks were also not attractive as she had been hit by a severe bout of small pox. Thus for all her handicaps she was neglected by all.
