The Ministry of Forgotten People

Set in a near future India, the story follows Arvind Kaul, a government officer who discovers the existence of a secret department hidden beneath Delhi’s bureaucratic machinery. Its purpose is chilling: to track citizens slowly fading from social memory — the elderly abandoned by families, exhausted professionals living invisible lives, children raised inside emotional silence, and ordinary people nobody notices anymore. As Arvind descends deeper into the hidden world of forgotten lives, he uncovers a parallel nation built not from politics or borders, but from loneliness itself.
