The purpose of the paper is to study the evolution of a new woman in Sudha Murty’s novel Mahashweta. Women started regaining their lost identity and position in the last few decades of twentieth century, it was majorly due to the efforts laid by social reformers and the writers who penned down the importance of equality.
