Abstract
This present paper attempts to analyse Indira Goswami’s novel, The Man from Chinnamasta from the ecofeminist perspectives showcasing the position of women in an orthodox patriarchal society, and years old saga of animal sacrifice in the name of culture and religion in the Kamakhya temple. From the viewpoint of ecofeminism, the play illustrates the feminist struggles against oppression, environmental destruction, and patriarchy. It emphasises on the interconnecting issues pertaining to the oppression of women and animals. The novel depicts about Chinnamasta Jatadhari, who along with Ratnadhar, an performer and his follower struggle to put an end to animal sacrifice by meeting sufficient marks in favour of the reason to present to the British authorities. The author also depicts her female characters as strong ones who voice their opinion in a firm manner.
