Abstract | |
Ill-treatment and exploitation of women are the salient features of Indian society for centuries. The whole society is divided on the basis of caste, class, religion, sex, and colour. The division is culturally programmed in the form of caste — system and Varna — system and are transmitted from one generation to another. Ill-treatment, supremacy, ruthlessness, and foul play characterize the contemporary Indian society, at large. Gender prejudice, power-game, and suppression of spontaneity and naturalness are factors responsible for these drawbacks. Vijay Tendulkar deals with the evils and drawbacks of an individual and society and throws light on the relationship, within and outside family and brings out their connectivity and complexity. | |
