Colonial Imprints in Kamala Markandaya’s The Nowhere Man

After independence, we as a nation feel that we are free and all the colonial signs are removed but it is not true.  ‘Colonialism’ is generally defined as a settlement in a new country. It related to the people who settle in a new locality. Post colonial critics like Ania Loomba opposes this definition writing that it is an inaccurate and inadequate definition because it does not refer to the exploitation, domination of the country, economy and culture as well as the mass suffering of the colonized people.
