Majority of the people abide by norms of their society without showing any resistance, nevertheless what they feel and bear but some of them are those who resist against the destroying effects of these customs. Amongst them poets and writers are the people who see, judge, reveal and raise voices against those customs and norms, which cause destructions and restlessness in the society. They used to inculcate their ideas in the dwellers to resist such norms. Dr. Rashid Jahan is a famous Indian feminist writer whose short stories railed against social inequity, hypocritical maulvis and the exploitation of women in a deeply patriarchal society. She was the first women to write about the plight of women with courage and forthrightness. This article sheds light on those facets in short stories of Dr. Rashid Jahan which demonstrate attitudes of the society.
