About the Book

Ballad of Kaziranga is not just a narrative, but an intricate portrayal of three friends’ deep connection to the magnificent Kaziranga National Park. The story follows Amal, Rishi, and Arunabh as they each grapple with their own lives and the park’s profound impact on their journeys.

Amal, in his quest to find meaning, throws himself into a new project, hoping it will transform his life. Rishi, dealing with a traumatic past, immerses himself in the natural beauty of Kaziranga as a means of healing. Arunabh, as a reporter, delves into the stories of the park, exploring the challenges it faces and the complex relationship between its natural splendor and the people who seek to preserve it.

This compelling tale isn’t purely a love story, though love seeps through the pages as a subtle force. Instead, it’s a story about the bond these three friends share for Kaziranga, each viewing it through their own lens—one of admiration, frustration, and hope. Through their experiences, the book sheds light on the park’s current state and the issues it is facing, from poaching to ecological threats, capturing not only the beauty of the land but also its fragility.

With rich storytelling and an evocative exploration of human connection to nature, Ballad of Kaziranga offers readers an insightful look at the intersection of personal and collective struggles, set against the backdrop of one of India’s most iconic natural landscapes.
