BURIAL SITE- EARLY MORNING

it is a beautiful early morning by the river . Everything is wonderful but a heart wrenching sound of two women wailing .by the river the family and the villagers prepare to bury the two bodies. The women sit a few meters away, the bodies still wrapped in the white cloth from the mortuary with the red seal .just their faces peep through the sheet . The bodies are lowered in to the graves as the mothers wail . The graves are filled , just then Sukkha arrives in ta jeep and stops at a distance. The graves are still being filled when Sukkha Singh walks up to NANKU and Mahendra .both are escorted to the jeep by Sukkha and the jeep drives off.

ROAD BURNT JEEP - MORNING

at a hundred meters there is thick black smoke emanate from the brunt jeep. Jatav is dictating his witness to a cop who is promptly noting it down on a register

Jatav - hum log chamda factory se gumshuda ladki ke baare mein tafteesh kar ke laut Rahe thay .achanak ek joot ka aag ka Gola jeep par aa ke.. nahin nahin likhiye sadak ke dono Taraf se aag ke Gola gire aur jeep ne aag paradise liya.

At a distance by the brunt jeep, Brahmadatt supervises the dousing process . Sidharth 's car arrives next to Jatav .Sidharth gets off his car .Mayank walks up to him.

Sidharth- theek ho tum ?

Sidharth reaches the place where Jatav was recording his witness . Sidharth takes the register and beings to read .Brahmadatt notices Sidharth and begins to walk but not before taking a file out of his jeep nearby .Sidharth talks to Jatav and Mayank while Brahmadatt walks to them.

Sidharth- Jatav ji joot ka Gola agar jala ke phenka gaya toh wo log dus foot se zyada door nahin thay, phir aap logon ne dekha kaise nahin kisi ko?

Jatav is caught ,he is scared to contradict what he has recorded already.

Jatav- sir moonh pe phaata baandhe hue thay sab.

Brahmadatt keeps walking to them .

Sidharth - phir ? Bandook hai tumhare pass?

Mayank- unke pass bhi thi sir.

Sidharth- phir? Goli chalai kisi ne?

Jatav - nahin sir. Goli nahin chaliye.

Sidharth - kyon? Kisi ne bhi goli kyon nahin chalayi? Jatav ji, galat Bayan likhaya hai aap ne. Sign kijiye.

Sidharth extends the register to him .they are quite ,Mayank wants Jatav to speak who doesn't right away but then he does.

Sidharth -(louder) sign kijiye.. karenge?

Jatav -Nishad ke log the. BSS.

Sidharth doesn't understand.

Sidharth- Kaun Nishad?

Jatav - Bhim Sangharsh sena sir .keh Rahe thay ki gaanv ke logon se NANKU aur Mahendra ke khilaaf gawaahi dilaane ki koshish ho rahi hai.

Sidharth looks at Brahmadatt and he knows he has to quickly end the conversation .he looks at them intently.

Sidharth- uss koshish mein tum log kahan khade ho, ye mujhe clearly Bata do.

Jatav - jahan aap kahenge ,wahin khade hain sir.

Brahmadatt arrives with a file.

Brahmadatt - BSS hai sir. Nishad ke ladke hain. Local netaji hai sir .daliton ka Bhagat Singh Banta Hai. Pichhle Saal jail mein bhi raha tha ,in fact National security act laga tha sir uspe .Jamanat par hai par underground rahta hai.

He gives the file to Sidharth .Sidharth opens it and begins to walk toward the burnt jeep after giving Jatav and Mayank a deep look .Brahmadatt walks along .Nihal walks behind them keep a safe distance .Chandra bhan follows behind in Sidharth 's car

Brahmadatt- file close kar sakte hain sir. Ladkiyon ke baapon ki remand mil gayi hai Saat din .poochhtachh karenge gaanv ke chaar logon ki gavahi hai iss mein sir ki dono baap peetatey thay Inn ladkiyon ko isi karan se .case solved hai sir in fact.

Sidharth gives him a weird look and goes through the file .

Sidharth - postmortem report kahan hai?

Brahmadatt - aa jayegi sir. Body bhi in fact dayan ho gayi hai sir. Report sham ko aapko deta hoon . File close kar sakte hai. Sir in fact.

Sidharth has understood the game by now.

Sidharth (sighs)- Anshu Naharia Kaun Hai?

This alerts Brahmadatt but he stays normal.

Brahmadatt- Anshu se toh aap Miley thay sir, jab bathroom Jo..

Sidharth - usey lake aaiye office mein .mujhe baat Karni Hai

Brahmadatt doesn't respond to this. Brahmadatt takes a moment before asking:
Anshu Naharia ka kis matter mein pooch Rahe hain sir?

Sidharth gives him a stern look .Brahmadatt knows that he will have to talk directly now.

Brahmadatt ( firm)- jaane dijiye sir. Aap kyon utar Rahe hain iss sab mein .Dalal hai sir .Anshu ka naam aaya toh seedhe Ramlal Naharia ka naam aayega sakar unhi ki hai sir. Aapse nivedan hai sir .santulan mat bigadiye.

Sidharth- jab tak post mortem report nahin aayegi ,sign to main nahi karunga .

There is a coldness and terror in his voice . Sidharth keeps looking at him ,Chandra bhan has pulled over right after them . Brahmadatt still has his hands folded. From a distance two boys with their faces covered close in on a motorbike bike .Sidharth and Brahmadatt both unmindful .for some unknown reasons they look ominous but they just ride past them Sidharth sits in his car .Brahmadatt stands at the window.

Brahmadatt- well wisher hain sir aapke .isliye Nivedan karte hain .Dalal hai sir .mat ghusiye sir .ek bar ghus Gaye .toh nikal nahi paayenge. Hum haath jod rahey hain aapke saamne .ghus ke nikal nahi paayenge sir.ek baar ghus Gaye toh nikalna naheen aayega.

Sidharth 's car leaves .Brahmadatt turns around looks at a distance at Jatav .Brahmadatt starts walking fast towards Jatav. He picks up speed. His men around him a little intrigued and they get dramatically surprised when Brahmadatt starts running finally he reaches Jatav ,grabs his shirt and drags him behind a jeep .just the two of them. Brahmadatt out of his senses.

Brahmadatt- dimag kharab ho gaya Hai tumhara. bahut tafteesh ki ichchha ho rahi hai tumhari? Poochhne ki zarurat nahi lag tumko ?(even louder) poochha kyon nahin humse?wo chale jayenge char mahine mein, tum ko hum ko jeevit rehna hai yahan! Samaj Rahe ho na ki Anshu ka naam aaya toh kya hoga?samjh Rahe ho ki nahin?

Jatav - sir,wo kahenge toh jawab Dena padega na? Lal sahab se baat Kiya kya hum kabhi ? Aapke peechhe Rahe hain Jeevan bhar. Par wo bolenge toh unko hum kaise mana karein ?aap kar deejiye ..humari taraf se.
