The Divine Justice (Khudai Fauzdar) explores the tangled dynamics of greed, power, morality and justice.

Through the eyes of Heera and Moti, two oxen, who display a camaraderie and a deep connection to their roots, Premchand explores the bond between animals and humans, highlighting compassion and justice.

About the Author
Dhanpat Rai Srivastava (1880 – 1936), better known as Munshi Premchand or Premchand was an Indian writer famous for his modern Hindi/Hindustani literature. Premchand was a pioneer of Hindi and Urdu social fiction. He was one of the first authors to write about caste hierarchies and the plight of women and labourers prevalent in the society. He is one of the most celebrated writers of the Indian subcontinent and is regarded as one of the foremost Hindi writers of the early twentieth century. He began writing under the pen name ‘Nawab Rai’, but subsequently switched to ‘Premchand’. He published his first collection of five short stories in 1907 in a book called Soz-e-Watan (Voice of the Nation).
