Abdul Jabbar in his fiction Ilish Marir Char has delineated the challenges of the fisher folk incredibly. The representative of the fisher folk Zainuddin and his struggle along with his comrades has exceptionally drawn our attention towards the fiction. The real portrayal of the fisher folk and the subalterns of the riverbanks has been depicted in the master hand of Abdul Jabbar. The story surpasses all the pictorial form which is not alienated from the reality. The portrayal of the stockist like Tarabdi has introduced us with the example of inhumanity and cruelty to the last extent. Tarabdi has exploited the fisherfolk for a long time. He has not left any aspect of inhumanity to extract the wretched. The struggle of the fisherfolk has been depicted aptly in this fiction. Nature itself has exploited the Fisherfolk. This struggle to live on the rivers for several days and collection of only few fishes and selling them without any profit has made the fisher folk impossible to sustain. After a long struggle they can collect few fishes which will be sold to the stockist without any profit. Abdul Jabbar has described how the stockist builds up their mansion and the fisher folk hardly manage to bring food twice to their family. With the murder of the character Shindhu, we found that how this oppression and cruelty to exploit the fisherfolk has reached to the last extent of inhumanity. This paper aims to analyse critically the fiction Ilish Marir Char by Abdul Jabbar. An analysis of this fiction and the challenges of the fisherfolk is the aim of this paper to be contextualized.
