In the afternoon of 30th January, 1948 in a hidden place, a group of men conspire to assassinate a great man for many political and social reasons. They felt that he had sacrificed the interests of the majority and was to be blamed for the partition of India. They decide to hold a mock trial of the man and create a court scene where a lawyer and a historian representing the Prosecution make pointed accusations. A young man posing as the Defendant replies stating his strong belief in his principles. The historical events surround Independence now come to the fore. The Prosecutors in the mock trial try threats and bribery, but fail. At last, just before5.05 pm (the time Gandhiji was shot) the mock Judge forces the trial to end and sentences the great man to death. The youth posing as the Defendant tells the audience that though they have a killed a great man, (Aaakaar), they have failed to eliminate the principles of humanity, love and non-violence, as they did inspite of killing Jesus Christ, centuries ago,
