Battle of Truth (Where faith guides and history remembers)

Battle of TruthBy Debashis MishraWhen the past refuses to die the present must face its echoes.During the sacred Rathayatra in Puri ACP Bharadwaj and investigator Dev Rathasharma uncover a chilling conspiracy—a plot to destroy the Jagannath Temple the beating heart of Kalinga’s spiritual heritage. What begins as a routine security alert soon unravels into a web of deceit fanaticism and hidden history stretching back over a thousand years.As the investigation deepens Dev’s keen intellect and unorthodox intuition lead him into secrets buried beneath the temple sands—stories of forgotten kings divine idols hidden during invasions and wars fought not for gold but for faith itself. The modern-day terror plot begins to mirror an ancient battle—the legendary assault of Raktabahu whose shadow still haunts the shores of Odisha.But this time the fight is not only against men with weapons—it’s against forces that defy logic. Strange coincidences prophetic dreams and invisible protectors blur the line between reality and the divine. When the conspirators strike during the grand chariot festival the very soul of Puri stands on the brink.
