Abstract: This research paper explores the dynamic interplay between literature, activism, and social justice in the context of Arundhati Roy's engagement with marginalized and deprived communities in India. Arundhati Roy, a renowned Indian writer and activist, has consistently addressed issues concerning India's most vulnerable populations through both her fiction and non-fiction works. This study delves into the portrayal of deprived classes in Roy's novels and her impassioned advocacy for their rights, providing a comprehensive analysis of her literary and activist contributions. The first section of the paper examines how Roy's fictional narratives, notably "The God of Small Things" and "The Ministry of Utmost Happiness," offer poignant depictions of marginalized communities in India. Through rich character development and thematic exploration, Roy's novels capture the struggles, aspirations, and challenges faced by these communities. The second section focuses on Roy's non-fiction essays and speeches, which serve as a platform for her passionate advocacy for social justice. Her engagement in social movements and campaigns underscores her commitment to seeking justice and empowerment for marginalized populations. Furthermore, this research highlights the complex intersections of identity, including caste, gender, class, and religion, within the context of India's diverse society. It explores the agency and empowerment portrayed in Roy's narratives and how characters from marginalized backgrounds assert their resilience and resistance against oppression. Additionally, the paper assesses the real-world impact of Arundhati Roy's advocacy efforts, acknowledging the challenges and criticisms she has faced in her role as an advocate for social change. In conclusion, Arundhati Roy's body of work and activism serves as a paradigm through which to view the empowerment and struggles of India's deprived classes. Her literary and advocacy contributions continue to raise awareness and promote positive change for marginalized communities in India, offering a compelling example of the power of literature and activism in advancing social justice.
