Abstract

The struggles we face in contemporary times are numerous. These are also the reaction of social changes. Today's society is witnessing the struggles of life such as the turmoil of urban life, atrocities against women, the plight of migrants due to declining agricultural production, caste - based social inequalities, the use of agricultural land to set up factories, the plight of people living in economically backward margins, unemployment and the problems of labor. It is time for everyone to consider that the struggle of the peasantry is questioning the future of the world. The history of yaanaikattiporadikkum by our ancient Tamil people will show the world about the prosperity of our country. The farmers who once offered food for the whole village are forced to beg for the next meal because the monsoon is gone and the value of the products, they produce is low. Due to the shortage of paddy, the expansion of roads, the setting up of factories and the exploitation of their lands, farmers have lost their livelihood and are in danger of migrating from where they live today. Although the battlefields faced by the agrarian elites in each period are different, the struggles remained the same no matter what. This article researches on the contemporary novels which deals with the plight of peasants who lost their lives at the hands of the ruling class.
