Abstract

The paper endeavors to analyze the nature of underclass, its identity, and causes of its emergence, ways of its subjection and articulation and reaction against it. Arvind Adiga in The White Tiger dwells on the problems of haves and have-nots. Adiga has graphically portrayed the different images of India— India of Light and India of Dark. But his focus is on the later and he tries to give it a literary voice
