Abstract:

At present ecocriticism has become an important branch of study as the people have been destroying the nature for their own needs. As a result,
the pollution of our environment has been increasing day by day and it has become very much necessary to take right step to save nature. Global warming, climate changing are some of the results of our deeds. In this situation the role of ecocriticism is very much important. The literary criticism has the potential to save the nature. In this regard, the writers can play a vital role. Gobinda Prasad Sarma, a renowned Assamese author, has been highly
influenced by this theory. His short stories carry the glimpse of this. In this proposed paper, we are going to discuss the meaning and importance of
ecocriticism and its reflection in the stories of Gobinda Prasad Sarma.
