About the Book
Set in Sitapuri, a small town on the Indo–Nepal border, this collection opens with an unsettling rupture: a desecrated Hanuman temple and the sudden disappearance of Chakauri, the town’s wrestling hero, after a humiliating defeat. As rumours thicken and elections loom, suspicion mutates into accusation, and ambition begins to eclipse truth. Into this charged atmosphere walks Chaman—a drifter who claims a divine vision instructing him to raise a towering Mahaveeri flag. Overnight, faith, fear, and fervour reshape the town’s destiny.
Through a novella and accompanying stories, the book listens closely to ordinary lives caught in extraordinary currents. Each narrative captures how belief, gossip, and longing ripple through everyday routines, revealing how communities are transformed when devotion collides with power—and how victory is claimed when certainty is hardest to find.
