Mulk Raj Anand's presentation of Indian Exploited people in Coolie.

Coolie is a 1936-published novel by Mulk Raj Anand. Anand's position as one of India's major English writers was strengthened by the novel. The book is extremely critical of British rule in the caste system of India and India. Coolie introduces the chilling image of Munno, a downtrodden boy, and his plight owing to poverty and exploitation helped by the existing social and political structures. With an orphan's pinch and pain, the novel touches those inner self rifts that at every corner of the copulation feel broken and ignored.

           The novel's tale depicts Munoo's and his family's fight. His dad died of shock because he could not pay his zamindar's debt. His mom worked hard day and night to earn sufficient living to sustain the family. Munoo could never forget how his dad had to suffer pain and suffer, and he also heard how his father's land had been confiscated by the zamindar. The little kid is forced to leave his quiet and enjoyable town after his father's death, Munoo, so that he can work and earn a living for himself.  But his first exterior world encounter, his first reality interaction, destroys his dreams. Munoo becomes a victim in the hands of the minor bank clerk's controversial and spiteful housewife and quite approver in attitude, before fleeing from the hysterical rage of his employers, he relieves himself close to their doorstep to reduce their social status. Munoo then worked in a pickle and jam factory, becoming a coolie but facing hopeless contests from other coolies and struggling for an chance to serve as a burden beast. Munoo then came to Bombay with the assistance of an elephant driver performing in a circus. He joined a nomadic family in this town and involves himself in a cotton mill as a employee. Gradually he makes new friends, gets his first glimpse of the red light area and witnesses a Hindu-Muslim riot to break an imminent strike launched by the factory owners.

             The scenario in Munoo is the direct result of British rule and the Industrial Revolution and its place in the social order raises the issue of supremacy in a capitalist culture. Munoo is not a crook but a victim of the world's cheating and Mulk Raj Anand depicts human tragedy created by mistreatment, scarcity, edacity, envy and self-centeredness through Munoo. Munoo, the hero of the novel, is a universal figure who symbolizes the inferiority of the deprived and the downtrodden. Social forces of exploitation and scarcity decide the life of Munoo in the novel.
