Q.10. Vijay Singh learnt a lot from the incident of meeting a ghost. How?

Vijay Singh was a strong and righteous man. He became more careful about boasting himself after he landed in a big trouble to encounter a ghost in the Haunted Desert. Undoubtedly, he managed to defeat the ghost through various tricks but he understood that he should speak carefully and avoid boasting.
He also learnt not to trust anyone blindly after he saw that the ghost had plans to kill him. He believed the ghost and came to his cave but the ghost tried to cheat him. It was his cleverness that he not only- survived but defeated the ghost.
He also came to know the reason behind the old woman’s weird gift. She actually helped Vijay Singh to defeat the ghost as she wished. He thanked her after returning to her home, for her kindness.


Q.11. Do you think that it was really a ghost whom Vijay Singh encountered? Give reasons for your answer.

It was not really a ghost whom Vijay Singh encountered but a dacoit in the guise of a ghost.
This is evident from some facts like: 

  • Ghosts are not visible. 
  • They can not be touched by hand. 
  • Ghosts possess extra ordinary powers and if it would have been one, it could have easily squeezed and crushed the stone. 
  • Ghosts do not need a club to kill humans. 
  • Ghosts don’t collect wealth. They do not run away. They just disappear.
