Abstract

The ever enchanting oriental landscape of India i.e. Bharat is an ample testimony of how the souls of two nations can coexist within the body of one. On one hand there is an India that has cyber cities, malls, multiplexes, SUVs and what not and on the other hand there is Bharat – a country for poor, a nation that belongs to children of a lesser God! Arvind Adiga highlights the terrible and oft at times horrific contrasts between the ‘India of Darkness’ and ‘The Shining India’. The present research highlights those contrasts manifested through the journey of Balram from darkness to light.
