Indian English Literature stands tall and occupies a place of repute in the world literary circle. It has remarkably acquired a self-sufficient and self-contained status and is known for its wide range of themes and techniques that it encompasses. Indian English Literature exudes a variety of themes ranging from the rich Indian Culture, social and traditional values to multifarious issues like the freedom struggle, nationalism and contemporary modern issues.English Language has become an integral part of our lives and does not remain alien to us. It has become the language of expression of our innermost feelings and thoughts. We owe immensely to our great literary stalwarts who not only carved a niche for themselves but also paved the way for future writers to explore and express themselves.

Theme and technique employed by the writer plays a major role in the development of the storyline of any work. The ideas, notions or assumptions of the writer find an impactful presentation through the technique that is adopted. A strong thematic structure helps to pull the story forcefully resulting in a remarkable piece of literature. All writers deploy various themes and techniques which form the warp and woof of the work of art. This intricate exercise helps the writer to reach out to the audience in a dynamic and determined manner, resulting in the complete immersion of the reader in the work of art.
