It distinctly speaks out how the marginalized character is mute because of patriarchy and the caste system. Pishi, the voiceless remains voiceless in spite of her great contribution to the family. Pishi is the example of subaltern character, who is dominated at the hands of patriarchy and the caste system. Because of the socio-economic and religious aspect of society, Pishi has to sacrifice her will and desire. She is silenced throughout her life. Her voice is not heard.en-USSubaltern womanBengali languageThesis
