" "

His poetry encircles a wide array of themes emitting from nostalgia, mythology, existential angst, seasons, surrealism, melancholy, starry nights and summer mornings. Niazi’s spontaneity was a class of its own and is admired in literary circles all over. Elements of innocence and truthfulness are conceivably the highlights of Niazi’s 13 Urdu and three Punjabi collections of works. He was awarded both the Pride of Performance and Sitara-e-Imtiaz by the Government of Pakistan in recognition of the mark he left on Urdu and Punjabi literature.
