Abstract

The play Encounter in Umbugland (1974) portrays the status of women from the unique perspective of one who is in power not just of the domestic but the State. It is seen as a manifestation of the political drama of not just the household but the nation. Tendulkar employs the nationalist vein to shed light on the domestic arena. Tendulkar borrows sources for the structure and the development of the thought of the play -The first source is the legacy of the British which is that of the tree of administration prevalent in England. The democracy of England is a new hope of Indians after independence. The second source is from the contemporary politics in India.
