Advocacy of Global Diversity and Sustainable Development in Arundhati Roy’s Writings

Abstract

Arundhati Roy is a globally celebrated author and political activist involved in human rights and environmental causes. She is a social justice advocate and vehement critic of globalization and neo-imperialism. She has been voicing the concerns of millions of tribal people living in Bustar, villages in Orissa, Chattisgarh, Jharkhand. She has brought forth the other side of the Naxal narrative, the narrative of human rights and their violation in her book Walking with the Comrades and the mainstream media is silent about this on account of class or state interests.
