Abstract

Rokeya Sakhawat Hossain’s Padmarag celebrates the empowerment of
women as the driving force for women’s emancipation from the shackles of patriarchy. The metamorphosis of women from sufferers of captivation and deprivation to empowerment and emancipation is presented through the lives of Tarini Bhavan inmates. The feminist movement in Padmarag is a social reformation movement. It is based upon the revelation that patriarchal oppression is present everywhere and that women should be emancipated
from this oppression along with being facilitated with equal opportunity in every sphere of life like men. In Tarini Bhavan, the sufferer women from different castes and creeds endeavor to achieve education, human rights, freedom of movement, and political recognition. They prove themselves as role models for their own gender and show the world that empowered women can advance themselves and play a crucial role in society
