Identity is the subject of a theoretical debate that focuses on its fundamental characteristics, formation process, and existential issues. Postmodernists forbid having any such identity, in contrast to essentialists who think that each person's identity is unique. It has been stated numerous times how identity is constructed, but it is important to remember that a person's social location, which includes their ethnicity, class, gender, etc., plays a significant role in shaping who they are. Characters in Amitav Ghosh's books are on the lookout for their identities as well as for reason, truth, and rationality. They are true dialogues on the search for meaning in life in this regard. In The Shadow Lines Ghosh problematizes the nation. Additionally, the text challenges ideas of reality that are grounded in cultural, social, and historical realities while exposing the arbitrary nature of numerous types of lines and borders, both personal and political. Although the personal and political are interwoven, "identification" shows itself as a key thread on the reader's sensitivities. The paper deals the identity conflicts showed by Ghosh.
