Abstract

Politics is an essential component of any culture. There is no such thing as a society without politics. Politics exists in the same way that society does. To have a deeper understanding of any civilization, one must study its politics. In a country like India, where so many cultures, languages, faiths, and customs coexist, studying political situations is required to have a comprehensive understanding of Indian society. Literature is always been a window to observe any social aspect as it mirrors society and politics is one of the social aspects. Many Indian English writers have depicted the political environment and political problems in their works. Aravind Adiga is one of them who has gracefully and bravely portrayed India of darkness and evils of politics in his debut picaresque novel The White Tiger (2008). This paper aims to reveal the menaces of Indian politics. The research paper probes the political facts and the facts which have been depicted in the novel. Adiga has portrayed dark India which does not mean that there is only darkness in India but he indicates the menaces of the society which can be improvised by adopting good practices. He has depicted the same picture of the politics of the nation which is the prime concern of this research paper.
