Abstract
If you go through history, it can be seen that most of the world's civilizations were developed in the areas along the sea and river banks. Similarly, the village of Gokarna was raised on the banks of titas river, about three miles from Brahmanberia in Comilla district of undivided Bengal in subjugated India. Writer Advaita Mallavarman was born in a very poor Malla family in that village. And the novel 'Titas Ak Nadir Naam', rich in narrative of the lower classes written by him, is established as an immortal achievement. There is no touch of civilized civility in the so-called civil life, no political manipulation, only the struggle for livelihood of the group-centered life of the lower classes of human society. The life terms of the neglected people of Bengal were written in the writer's pen, probably with the urge to express their unspeakable pain in public. River and life are united in his writing. The river has given food to the mouths of the people on its banks, has created the emotions of the mind, the colors of the eyes, and life is an epic of pain. Malos have an inseparable relationship with the river Titus. It is on the banks of the river Titus that the birth, youth, youth, old age and all the rituals of the Malo family unfold. How important the role of the river in their lives is throughout the novel. The survival of the Malos is completely dependent on the river. Most of the people of Titus Par live by fishing. They have to catch fish from the water at night. There Titus is calm or fearless, so many mothers and wives are not afraid even in the night of the storm and the sons and husbands are sent to the river. The wives think that the husband is in their arms, the mothers think that the sons are just resting their heads on the mother's chest and calmly making a net full of fish. This Titus is the only companion in the life of Malos and this companion is forever. Without Titus, they cannot function, it has a part in every work of life, its name is closely associated with it, its constant intermingling with the work of daily life. The path that started from the courtyard of the house of all the malos all went and joined the water of Titus. They are even so attached to this name that the Titus necklace hangs around their necks. But this much dependence may have led the lives of Malo people to danger. Fishing was the only profession of the Malos who survived by adopting Titus but with the passage of time this profession is no longer active due to the drying up of the river water. As the water in the river dried up, the Malora became immobile. A dire crisis has arisen in their lives, due to which the Malos are gradually moving towards destruction. So dependence on one river and one occupation has become the norm for Malo clans. The Malos could not bring any change in their lives according to time; So with the past they also became extinct. It is true that the Malos could not grasp the present, but Titus's history tied their own past to it.
