| dc.description.abstract | The privileges that the upper class enjoys, their disregard for laws, mistreatment of lower classes, influence and control in the country are contrasted with the deprived state of the lower classes in the novel. This causes “frustration and anger” in the less fortunate who are victims of a society divided into classes. Ozi, Mumtaz and Raider belong to upper class where they get every facility and violet the state’s laws but lower class people like Daru are forced to face the punishment. This kind of unequal distribution of not only fortune but also power and rights create alienation in lower class which is represented by Daru and Manucci in the novel whereas for upper class, people are indulgingin various immoral and illegal activities. | en_US |
