Consequently the east Bengal immigrants had lived a beleaguered identity for whom the concept of home itself is a nonexistent phenomenon.A borrowed phrase from Amitav Ghosh "with no home but in memory" amply justifies their situation. Hence their reference of 'self' is ambiguous as they locate themselves in a dislocating culture that externalizes the festering symptom of homelessness which they can adapt but the culture won't adopt them.
