Abstract
This study tries to analyze Nepali fiction and its implication for raising feminist consciousness in the context of Nepal. I focused on 'consciousness' as a recognizable process on the path of awareness and self-consciousness of one's rights, passion, identity, autonomy, and self-control of lives against a male-dominated patriarchal society. Here, I have examined Nepali fiction named 'Anuradha' (1961). The female characters portrayed in this Novel are moving toward observable Feminism through their everyday interactions and situations, challenging the notion of masculinity, which is not monolithic or unidimensional. 'Anuradha' portrays a tragic love story between an introverted guy and a passionate woman named 'Anuradha,' who is a conscious and powerful personality revolt against inequalities and social injustices imposed upon females. The article helps to understand ideas of differences on Feminism and emancipation, which is very much indigenous and reflected psychologically in Nepali fiction, and not a Western borrowing.
