आर्य कौन थे? कब थे? कहाँ बसते थे? क्या करते थे? कैसे रहते थे?...इन अनगिनत प्रश्नों के उत्तर की प्रामाणिक कथा है—‘मैं आर्यपुत्र हूँ’। रामायण श्रीराम की जीवनकथा है और यह अब तक की आदर्श जीवनकथा होनी चाहिए। ठीक इसी तरह महाभारत समाज की कथा है और यह अब तक की महानतम सामाजिक-कथा होनी चाहिए, अपने आप में संपूर्ण। इन दोनों कथाओं से आर्यों के चरित्र का अनुमान तो लगाया जा सकता है, मगर उनका समग्र रूप नहीं दिख पाता, क्योंकि श्रीराम व श्रीकृष्ण अवतारी पुरुष थे, जबकि मैं यहाँ सामान्य आर्यों की बात कर रहा हूँ। आर्यों की कथा ही क्यों? क्योंकि विश्व इतिहास का यह सबसे बड़ा झूठ रचा गया कि आर्य बाहरी और आक्रमणकारी थे। यह पश्चिम के विद्वानों की विद्वत्ता और निष्पक्षता पर प्रश्नचिह्न‍ है। फिर यह भारत के वामपंथी इतिहासकारों की गुलाम मानसिकता है, जो उन्होंने इस आधारहीन काल्पनिक मत को आगे बढ़ाया। जबकि एक भी प्रमाण अपनी बात के समर्थन में ये दोनों आज तक प्रस्तुत नहीं कर पाए।

The main character of this novel is Angel (fictitious), an IAS officer. Through this composition, I have tried to present the story woven from the threads of Angel's survival and struggle as well as to depict the Labasna training environment of Mussoorie after he got selected in IAS. This is a fantasy novel. The initial chapters tell the story of the friendship between four candidates preparing for civil services. This novel is the story of every young man of India dreams big and remains firm towards his goal even after listening to the taunts of society and friends. Besides, the challenges that the competitive students had to face during the Corona period have also been depicted. Apart from this, through this composition, I have tried to throw light on administrative corruption and red tape.
