Title of the paper : A Critical Study of the Fractured Self in the Select Work of T.M.Krishna

Abstract: Discrimination is rampant and is universal. Caste discrimination is a violent dehumanization and has been spreading like a wildfire, to extinguish it is insurmountable. Subaltern is the study of representation of marginalized in literary works and of the relationship between oppressor and the oppressed. The present paper encapsulates the fractured self of the Dalit and the caste hegemony that surrounds it. The paper throws light on the issues pertaining to Dalits recognition in the society they are part of. The inhumane walls built in the name of discrimination, hierarchies are studied from the subaltern lens. To break through these strong built barriers, unified selves should come together collectively to spread love and sow the seeds of brotherhood. Emancipation of the Other is also the focal point of the study. The emphasis is also laid on to spread Dalit love for the necessary change to be warranted. Through unwavering support by the fellow men can make the variation visible.

Keywords : Discrimination, Subaltern, Marginalization, Dalit love.
