SUMMARY
‘Subaltern’ is the term that defines the inferior rank of person from the below margin of society; the marginalized group who are considered being the suppressed and muting for years. Subalternity focuses on the quandary of those who are allotted sub or secondary space in the human society. The present article strives to analyze and highlight the issues of subaltern people in the postmodern Indian society as portrayed in the Man-booker prize winning author Aravind Adiga’s Between the Assassinations. Aravind Adiga in his Between the Assassinations, has realistically revealed the pathetic and difficult conditions of the subaltern people who suffer from poverty, exploitation, class/caste distinctions, corruption, and economic disparity.
