The story Sadgati presents a poignant picture of the atrocities committed by the upper castes on the untouchables. Dukkhi goes to the Panditji's house to get an auspicious date for his son's marriage. The Pandit puts him to work chopping wood. Suffering from hunger and thirst, Dukkhi collapses there and the Panditji ties a rope around his feet in the morning and throws him out of the village and returns to purify himself. Along with this, other great stories of Premchand have also been given in this collection, which are inspiring as well as very interesting. All the stories have the power to raise a strong voice against social evils.
