The subcontinent has been one of the well-known colonies of the vast British Empire. The colonial rule of the Britishers has put some everlasting impacts on every sphere of life in the subcontinent. Because of the dominance and superior nature of the British people they always have influenced other nations, especially African states and subcontinent: which ultimately has impacts on their social life, literature, identity, culture, and language. This sort of influence of the imperial centre on the peripheries has then reflected in the writing and literature they produced. So here the focus lies especially on Pakistani writing and the role of language and identity reflected in Muniza Alvi’s selected poems. The researchers explore the ways which reflect the conflicted identity of the speaker along with pragmatic analysis. For this purpose, the researchers have selected two poems “The unknown girl’’ and ‘’Presents from my aunts in Pakistan”. The study is qualitative descriptive in nature which opens up the research questions in a coherent manner.
