This research aims to study the exploitation of women and land in Sorraya Khan's Noor. The researcher has attempted to study the elements of ecofeminism which was originally propounded by West, are showcased in the novel. In a postcolonial country like Pakistan, ecofeminism plays a vital role to unfold the degradation of ecology in the name development and urbanization. Ecofeminism as an idea reflects the link between oppression of women and land caused by urbanization, militarization and development. It focuses on unfolding the streaks of ecofeminism in the novel with post-colonial perspective. Furthermore it concludes that healing can only be done by initiating the process to bring change in the patriarchal system of oppression. This interdisciplinary research work has a wide scope for future researchers in the field of ecology, feminism, biodiversity and ecofeminism
