This study explores the role of Indian literature in addressing socio-political and environmental issues with a primary case study of Sarnath Banerjee’s graphic novel All Quiet in Vikaspuri and investigates how the novel employs narrative fiction to expose not only several interlocking factors contributing to water scarcity and destruction of habitat but also an array of political projections. This novel is deeply questioning the critical issues of population control, environmental justice and economic restructuring. Employing qualitative literary analysis, the research delves into how the novel critiques socio-political structures and underscores the need for urgent changes to prevent further environmental degradation and human suffering. The findings reveal Banerjee’s novel urges readers to reflect on their role in the environment, far beyond mere entertainment. The novel disrupts global paradigms, questions established sociopolitical ideas and proposes a new horizon for life on Earth with full responsibility in respecting our environmental boundaries while pursuing social justice. The study finds that texts such as All Quiet in Vikaspuri are important environmental education and advocacy tools inspiring readers to imagine and implement a sustainable society. This research urges for a more inclusive understanding and enactment of sustainable solutions across all the ecologic-social nexus.
