A peasant's movement starts against land acquisition policy by the Government for industrialisation. The government sticks to the point of acquiring land belonging to a factory. Party workers confront the farmers on the issue. Two women, Nandini and Radharani become the leaders of the uprising. Nandini is gang-raped and murdered and Radharani commits suicide.
