Kamala Markandaya’s sixth novel e Co?er Dams, Arun Joshi’s last novel eCity and the River and Amitav Ghosh’s most popular novel e Hungry Tide highlight, among other things, the ruling class’ indirect intervention in the lives
of the marginalized section of Indian society. Although Kamala Markandaya, Arun Joshi and Amitav Ghosh are at variance with each other in respect of their technical and thematic approach to the world of ction, their common interest in highlighting the marginalized as victims of the ruling class’ ambitious plans
for overnight development is worth investigation. is paper aims to re?ect the
plight of the marginalized resulting from the mindless execution of developmental projects as depicted in the select Indian English novels produced a?er 1950s.
