Abstract

In Mahasweta Devi's seminal work Mother of 1084 and Droupadi in pretext of suppressing the Naxalbari movement, state brutalized the tribal people, despite the suppression of the movement by the state the Naxalite movement still thrives because the marginalized people identify themselves with the movement. The subalterns like Dopadi and Dulna who are the representative of the disadvantaged class rebelled against their systematic exclusion by the state.
