Raghubir the manager of Seth Prabhudayal who is incharge of the jungles is killed in mysterious circumstances. Prabhudayal takes the responsibility of bringing up the child of Raghubir & takes care of his widow as Raghubir was his trusted manager. Karan, the son of Raghubir grows up with the aid of Seth Prabhudayal & today he is a forest officer. Karan is transferred to Ajeetnagar's deadly forests.
