This paper seeks to situate the themes of social marginalisation as they are addressed in Mahasweta Devi’s Titu Mir within a number of interconnected critical areas where the ideologies of dominance are being challenged. It demonstrates the growing exploitation and social exclusion that tribal people face in the postcolonial era. It also makes an effort to show how the Dalit population of the nation, particularly in rural areas, is constantly subjected to various forms of exploitation at the hands of the ruling classes. Titu Mir is the story of a subaltern’s struggle against the powerful British during the years 1830–1831. It presents an unbiased picture of the exploited and the oppressed in terms of poverty, discrimination, and power politics while highlighting the genuine concerns of the underclass, the have-nots, and the exploited strata of society, which are the sons of soil, the peasants, who play a crucial role in providing food for the entire race of mankind while also being exploited and marginalised.
