Culture Replication in the Novels of Aravind Adiga & V.S. Naipaul

Abstract

Nowadays people have disassociated themselves from their own identity, tradition and cultural heritage. Undoubtedly, the 21st century is the period of disappearance of national identity. About 95 percents of population in India is overwhelmed by the Western culture and tend to forget the native Indian values. Owing to the cultural decay, Indians face unbearable bitter experiences in particular the younger generations are most affected. Drinking and smoking have become the style of the students. They become the addicts of the internet and pornographic culture. Girls and women hurl the dressing style of India and wear the clothes like English people. Some survey reports that these drastic changes are one of the sources for the moral deprivation of youths and they involve themselves into rape and other violence on females which have been increased in the last ten years.
