Synopsis

 
Time is the best storyteller, while every living being is a forced reader. There is suspense before anything happens and even after. Otherwise, how would an abandoned child, Dhatri, be raised by a saint, Bhasith? How did she become the wife of the great King Suryatej and give birth to the crown prince? 

The story “RAJYAPATH” takes the readers through the rule of a benevolent king Suryatej to the rule of a tyrant king Mahabal, who acceded as an heir successor and finally lands in to democracy. He became a dictator, and people lived in fear and oppression during his rule. Only the employees of the king lived well. Mahabal killed several kings, collected their wealth and women and annexed their kingdoms. It was his moral fall. 

His physical fall came through his own wife, Sulekha, with the help of his mother, Dhatri, brother, Dharmatej, and Saint Bhasith. Mahabal is then killed in a stampede, under the feet of the people who tried to stop him from throwing his sword at Sulekha. 

This story brings before readers the beauty of the Himalayan forests, peaks and valleys. It ends on a happy note, with Dharmatej marrying Samhitha, Sulekha’s sister, and establishing the people’s rule in the country. Sulekha humbly rejects, but Dhatri agrees to be the honorary queen of the country as her responsibility. Dharmatej is then elected as the president of the country.
