This chapter is an eclectic fusion of six modern theorists. The slant or methodology used is criticism and analysis of the three novels vis-à-vis an eclectic or diverse theoretical framework. However, this paper concentrates on Dipankar Gupta’s book India is for Sale and his term Orientalism from Within that this research has borrowed, adapted and adopted as a title to the theoretical framework, the thesis, and the book mentioned above. All the other theorists employed to create the theoretical framework will be discussed generally.
