               Akhlya was alone when he comes to know this world. His parents die early. His Fufu took him with her but unfortunately she also expired. His kin did not take responsibility for his nurturing. A Harijan family started taking care for him. He started cordial relation with Baishakhi the daughter of a Harijan Gampla. They come to know that they are in love. However, it was unheard a upper class boy marrying a Harijan girl.  The love is not for body but for an eternal purpose.

   There is struggle between class wars in the story too.
