ABSTRACT

This paper-letter strives to sarcastically subvert the perception of the second sex by the members of the Hindutva camp by applying the Brechtian theatrical method as well as the Derridian Militant Deconstruction. The paper-letter specifically focuses on the Durga Vahini, the female wing of the Sangh Parivar, by exposing the inner aporia or uncontradictory contradictions of the gendered, phallocentric Hindutva gaze.
