        abstract = {Education is a significant tool through which 
individuals share their experience, know about their 
identity and voice it through their words. Education has 
proved to transform lives especially in the context of 
women in Indian society. Education serves as a central 
theme in women’s autobiographical work where it helps 
to empower, express and resist societal and patriarchal 
norms. Women autobiographies reveal how education 
emerged as a powerful medium which made women 
travel from silence to voice, from resistance to 
acceptance. Women narratives provide the light on 
education which not only focuses on personal 
experience but also show the broader socio-cultural 
realities from women’s lens. This paper incorporates 
close reading of autobiographies of Baby Halder and 
Bama Faustian and highlights the role of education in 
shaping their identities. This paper is going to be a study 
on how education and learning functions as a powerful 
tool for self-definition, resistance, and empowerment.},
