Inspector Vivek Gupta is about to complete 30 years of spotless, honest service in the police force. It is a record he and his wife and daughter are proud of. One night he is assigned the task of apprehending and arresting Neelkant Sawant, a criminal wanted for the murder of mill owner Laxman Rai.
Even as Neelkant is bidding adieu to his wife in the village, Vivek Gupta descends on him and arrests him. At the railway station they learn that the train to Bombay is delayed due to heavy rains. Vivek Gupta and Neelkant wait on the platform.
It is then that Vivek Gupta learns about the circumstances that led Neelkant to kill Laxman Rai. To his shock Vivek Gupta realises that the same Laxman Rai was the man responsible for the death of his own brother. Now Vivek Gupta suffers from pangs of conscience. He realises that Neelakant had the courage to commit an act that he himself had refrained from thanks to his police duty.
As the moment of reckoning beckons, Vivek Gupta takes the most important decision of his life — he lets Neelkant run away because he feels that a good man should not suffer injustice, and in the process wipes out his clean record of 30 years.
But he has a surprise, because Neelkant Sawant has given himself up to the police. In a touching reunion, Neelkant explains to Gupta why he did not have the heart to runaway because he could not tarnish the reputation of an honest man like Gupta — souls who behaved in "goodness and honesty" hold hands all alone in a cell.
