Abstract : Language is a medium to express the feelings. Writers travel through the world of letters to present the passing ages with hidden reality through the world of literature. This paper focuses on the representation of Indian women in nineteenth, and twenty-first century Indian poetry. In the context of poems reviewed, Feminist theory forms the framework for analysis and interpretation. Standing position of Indian women differ in different era. In Indian poetry, nineteenth century poets recreated a picture of laden Indian women. Analysis shows that the protagonist in twenty-first century Indian poetry is woman with freelance thoughts. Male dominated society perpetually suppressed the identity of women. However, within the gift state of affairs woman started raise her voice for her identity. As time passes identity of women changes from futility to fruitfulness.
