Role of women in Raja Rao’s
Kanthapura
• Women in raja rao’s kanthapura within the socio-political realms. Role
played women in the indian fight for indipependenc british against
british rules.
In our society women one were always Marginalize.
In Fiction but Raja portrayed women as Heroic figure.
In Rajarao’s kanthapura narrator is an old grand mother .
. It shows the one of the stylistic devices of the novel.
Kenchamma the godess is the center of the village.The attachment
and love for the mother is express in many ways.
. Motherhood is represented by kenchamma.she protect from sickness,
diseases.
THE IDEAL WOMEN IS PROJECTED IN THE FIGURE OF
THE EVER –OBEDIENT AND SUFFERING.
 WOMEN MUST OBEDIENTTO HIS HOUSBAND.FOR E.G
WOMEN OF KANTHAPURA
 ‘ANDWHEN OUR MEN HEARD OFTHIS,THEY SAID;WAS
THERE NOTHING LEFT FORWOMEN BUTTO
 VAGABOND ABOUT LIKE SOLDIERS ? AND EVERYTIME
THE MILK CURDLED OR DHOTIWAS NOT DRY.
 THEYWOULD DRY.THEYWOULD SAY ALL BECAUSE OF
THIS SWARAJ BUSINESS.’
 WOMENS EDUCATION IS PROBLEMATICTHAT
MENTALITY OF PEOPLE.HERE PATRIARCHY OPERATES.
 WOMEN OF KANTHAPURA ARE IGNORANT AND
UNEDUCATED.WOMEN OF SEVIKA SANGHAWERE
 TALKED ABOUT CLOTHES AND ORNAMENTS
 Akkaya and javni becomes widow ,at the young
age remains dependent and burden for family. in
fact her death does not perturb but relieves the
other.
 Gandhian moment had a considerable role to
play vital role in bringing the women out of
‘pardah’.
 To remove the ignorance of the women of
kanthapura. It also importantant in bringing the
women out of ‘pardah’.
 One of the most interesting factor that played a
role in lives of the women is the letter or the
alphabet in the form of newspapre.
 The leader of sevika sangha rangama and
ratan.
 Ranghama acts as a source of information,
knowledge of inspiration to the village women.
 While moorthy spent his days in prison, the
women of kanthapura took charges of strrugle
 For freedom. they formed woman’s volunteer
corps under the leadership of rangamma who
instilled patriotism among the women by
presenting the historical figure like laxmi bai,
sarojini naidu etc.
 Rao pictures women taking part in the national
movement in kanthapura.it is with the help of
women that moorthy, gandhi and other man,
brings in a lot of change in village.

 In short we can say that women of
kanthapura are ignorant but we witnessed
the immense change that is gradually
brought about in psyche of the narrow-
minded, prejudiced and understanding.
 There is one question raises that whether
their role is a heroic/dominant or subaltern
one. Are they Heroins Are victims of their
own that is being used to sacrifice their
physical and emotional need for the victory
of men ?Who gets the medal in end.
