RESISTANCE LITERATURE OF MINORITIES AND DALITS WITH SPECIAL REFERENCE TO ROHINTON MISTRY‘S NOVEL
Mrs. Zehrabi, Mrs. Shaik Shaheen
Abstract :
Resistance literature is always about the plight and protest of marginalized sections of society. India is primarily a Hindu country accommodating many other religions like Islam, Christianity, Parsi etc. The smaller religions in the subcontinent always suffer identity crisis. The bulldozing majority influence their tradition and practices. At the same time, Hinduism is also fragmented greatly by its own caste system. It paves way for resistance literature. Rohinton Mistry is an expatriate Indian–Parsi writer living in Canada. In his writings he often tries to revise the history of his homeland as he focused on the fads and foibles of the minuscule minority Parsi Zoroastrian community in Bombay. He made a conscious effort to ‘emace more of the social reality of India. Mistry focuses on the history of his homeland. His works reflect the reality of Indian, the predatory polities of corruption, tyranny, exploitation, violence and bloodshed. His novels also give an insight into rural India focusing on the injustice, the cruelty, and the horror of deprivation and portray the trauma of India along communal religious and linguistic lines.
