• Unveiling the Quilt: Ismat Chughtai, Queer Identities, and Resistance in Indian Literature

Dr Renu

Abstract: The term ‘queer’ carries a distinct resonance, encompassing individuals whose sexual orientations exist beyond the conventional heterosexual norms. This umbrella term includes lesbians, gays, bisexuals, and transgender individuals, whose presence has been historically marginalized within heteronormative societies. This article seeks to explore the evolution of queer identity, the enduring struggles faced by queer individuals across generations, culminating in the emergence of the queer movement in the late twentieth century, notably in the United States. Additionally, it emphasizes the representation of queer individuals in Indian Literature and their acceptance, with a particular focus on Ismat Chughtai's renowned short story, Lihaaf . The story's controversial nature stems from its portrayal of the homoerotic relationship between the female protagonist, Begum Jan, and her husband, Nawab Sahib, a fact that remains prominent throughout the narrative.
