Dr. Dhere said, “The rebellious tone of women’s literature in the twenty-first century has moderated compared to the twentieth century, and the words written by women are changing now. The patriarchal mentality limited Khian’s life, stunted his world of experience. But although women were deprived of the knowledge tradition, they were not primitive or unintelligent, but talented and intelligent. This talent of women is seen in saint tradition and folk tradition.”
Usha Chandurkar said, “The revolution in media and the growing trend of parents towards English medium schools have adversely affected Marathi literature and created apathy towards it. Unless parents consciously introduce children to the Marathi language, children’s awareness of the Marathi language will not expand.”
