The plight of the modern women has been delineated with utmost perfection by Paramita in her writings.

Paramita’s excellence is marked through narration in controlled emotion regarding feelings and vivid picturesque description of events. Application of appropriate imagery, adeptness in blending the real with the imaginary and elasticity in style, distinguish Paramita’s stories from those of others. Her stories aspire to compete with one another on daring genuineness, intense human sensitivity and extraordinary ornamentation of language.

Paramita’s creativity has been regarded as a significant contribution to modern Indian writing by prominent authors and literary critics. Eminent literary critic and poet K. Satchitdanandan says ‘’....The stories while reflecting in their themes, tones and structures, the current state of Indian short stories in general and Oriya short stories in particular, also mark the new strides that women’s fiction in the country seems to be taking. There is an evident expansion of empathy and a conscientious attempt to grasp the anxieties of a society in turmoil from the point of view of the marginalised, the lonely, the less loved and under-privileged. Thus the stories strive to integrate a progressive social vision with a woman’s desire, pain and rage and an awareness of new formal possibilities.....”
