Starting in 1960s in the United States, feminism as a movement has gathered a lot of momentum. In the post colonial India, the female writers have raised feministic voice through their female characters. Manju Kapur, in her novel “The Immigrant” has tried to raise the feminist voice through Nina and other female characters. Nina, who is a lecturer at Miranda House in Delhi, marries an NRI and settles in Canada. She has to face a lot of problems to settle there as she finds herself caught up in a kind of an inescapable web. By deciding to leave her husband who is totally indifferent to her, Nina tries to reinvent herself and make her own identity. Another character in the novel Zenobia, who is Nina’s friend, stands for total liberty of the women
