Test: Fair Play- 2 - Year 5 MCQ

Days passed and, as ill luck would have it, Algu Chowdhry found himself in a tight spot. One of his fine pair of bullocks died, and he sold the other to Samjhu Sahu, a cart driver of the village. The understanding was that Sahu would pay the price of the bullock in a month's time.

Algu found himself in a tight spot when he sold his bullock to Samjhu Sahu, who promised to pay him in one month's time. Unfortunately, the bullock soon died, and Samjhu Sahu refused to pay Algu.

The village had mixed reactions about the old lady's case. Some sympathized with her, some laughed at her, and some advised her to adjust.

Jumman and his wife harassed the old aunt by insulting her.

The bond of friendship between Jumman and Algu was broken because of Algu's justice, stating that Jumman must pay allowance to his aunt.

The solution to the question involves understanding who was responsible for the cross-examination of Jumman.

• Algu took the lead in questioning Jumman.
• Other members of the Panchayat were also involved.
• This collective effort ensured a fair examination.

Therefore, the correct answer is that Algu and others cross-examined Jumman.

The arrangement was done between Jumman and his aunt.

The aunt expected the village panchayat to do justice regarding her situation.

Samjhu Sahu was known as the cart driver of the village.

• He played a crucial role in the daily activities of the villagers by providing transportation.
• His cart was essential for moving goods and people around the village.
• Samjhu's work as a cart driver was significant for the community's functioning.

Jumman Shaikh and Algu Chowdhry were good friends.

The decision taken by the Panchs was to give the aunt a monthly allowance.

The aunt decided to appeal to the Panchayat for a fair resolution. She believed this was the best way to address her concerns and seek justice.

• The Panchayat is a traditional village council, trusted for settling disputes.
• By appealing, the aunt aimed to involve community leaders in her issue.
• This step shows her intention to resolve matters through communal support.

The attitude of Jumman towards the aunt became undesirable.

Jumman announced that Algu was right and Sahu must pay Algu for his bullock. This made Algu very happy.

Jumman Shaikh’s aunt transferred her property to him because she believed that he and his family would take care of her. She expected to be provided with food, shelter, and support in her old age. Therefore, all the given reasons are correct, making option (d) "All of these" the correct answer.

Jumman's old aunt had transferred her property to him with the condition that he would take care of her. However, after some time, Jumman and his wife started mistreating her and stopped providing proper food and care. This led to a dispute, and the aunt demanded justice.

When Jumman's aunt realized that she was not welcomed in his house, she suggested that Jumman should pay her a monthly allowance to set up a separate kitchen.

Algu embraced Jumman because he was deeply moved by the fair judgment that Jumman delivered as the head of the Panchayat. Despite their past conflicts, Jumman remained impartial and ruled in favor of justice, proving that the role of the Panchayat head required fairness above personal grudges. This act restored their friendship and faith in justice, making option (a) "For fair justice" the correct answer.

Algu was made the Panch (head of the village court) to resolve the dispute between Jumman and his aunt. Despite being Jumman's close friend, Algu decided to rule fairly and judged that Jumman must take care of his aunt or return her property. This shows that Algu prioritized justice over friendship.
