Who Am I? ( trans. Dr. Rajinder Singh) Who am I is the story of a young and educated married woman, who feels suffocated in her monotonous life and chooses to renounce the world for self-realization. She follows a group of sadhus and sadhvis to Hardwar, but from there moves on alone in her quest for truth.

The characters in Tiwana's novels and short-stories are the downtrodden and the innocent rural folk with suppressed desires and passions. Tragedy and irony mark the main elements of her fiction. Complex inner duality of the female psyche is the chief theme of Tiwana.{{citation needed|date=January 2020}} Besides her achievement in fiction, Tiwana has also written two books on literary criticism.

'''Mir Syed Mohammad Baqir Mosavi Kirmani''' or '''Aga Kirmani''' ({{lang-ur|آغامیر سید محمد باقر الموسوی المعروف آغا کرمانی}}) was a religious cleric who came from [[Kerman Province|Kirman]], [[Iran]] to [[Kashmir]] in order to spread the message of [[Islam]]. Perhaps he was one of the companions of [[Mir Syed Ali Hamdani]]. He came here in 1539 A.D. Another tradition is that he came with founder of [[Shiaism]] in [[Kashmir]],
[[Mir Sham ud-Din Iraqi]] in 1500 A.D. He stayed at [[Wahabpora]] for a long period of time.<ref name="auto1">تاریخ کشمیر از سید ذوالفقار علی مطبوعہ از راہ اسلام آرگنائزیشن</ref>
