Outflows from galaxies play a crucial role in the evolution of galaxies and also affect the surrounding medium. The standard scenario of explaining these outflows with the help of supernovae driven wind has recently come under criticism, and other processes such as radiation pressure and cosmic-rays have been invoked. We examine the relative importance of supernovae as the driving mechanism of galactic outflows in light of these competing processes.
