Post-Colonial narratives often serve as platforms for marginalized people to express
their voices and also to share their experiences in both colonial and national context.
Postcolonial literature in India interrogates many hurdles that marginalized sections face in
society. The place of women in the postcolonial context is very special due to their
intersectional questioning on certain aspects in society such as patriarchy, caste, religion and
class that have positioned them in subordinate roles.
