Sarojini Naidu was politically active during India's struggle to gain independence from British rule. She was also dedicated to bringing equal rights to women who were treated as a second class in Indian society. How does the custom of separating men and women with a "pardah" shape meaning in "The Pardah Nashin"? By referencing an ancient custom throughout her poem and expressing the sorrow it causes, the speaker makes the argument that it is time for India to change and develop its own modern identity.

By describing the dreamlike experience of the woman, the practice of O pardah creates a mysterious mood; this makes the poem feel ancient and otherworldly.

The speaker describes the beauty and power of women when they are protected from thieving" eyes. She uses this custom to express her view that women must be treasured and protected.

The speaker shows how this custom can be oppressive for women. The portrayal develops the speaker's theme that women should be free and equal within society.​
