摘　　要：The British colonizers left India in 1947,after almost two hundred years of exploitation and oppression.But before they left the country,they did a permanent damage to the geographical as well as emotional mappings of the nation.They divided former India into two parts on the basis of religion.As a consequence,the Hindus who were the residents of East Pakistan had to forcefully migrate to India.On their way of exodus,they had to undergo severe physical and emotional tortures at the hands of the rioters.These are the issues that have been discussed so many times on so many occasions.In this paper I intend to focus on a particular aspect of the offspring of the partition-the tortures done to women and the attitude of the society regarding those rape victims.Prafulla Roy’s novels Keyapatar Nouko(The Boat of Keya Leaves)and its sequel Satodharay Boye Jay(Flowing in Hundred Streams)mostly focus on the sufferings that a girl had to endure both from her relatives and the society after she was raped by some brutal rioters.This paper also intends to probe into the parameters that led to such ruthless behavior by otherwise affectionate and loving elders of the families.
