1. Why did the postmaster feel out of place in Ulapur?
Answers
Explanation:
Our postmaster belonged to Calcutta. He felt like a fish out of water in this remote village. ... The Postmaster has no peer group in the small village of Ulapur
Calcutta is not only one of the largest cities in India, it is an intellectual and cultural centre, home to many writers, poets, and philosophers including, of course, Tagore himself. The Postmaster would have been surrounded by people and lived with his mother and sister, who also cooked for him—something he now has to do for himself.

The men who work at the indigo factory are not suitable companions for a respectable, educated man, and in any case, Tagore says, the Calcutta boy is not "adept in the art of associating with others," appearing either proud or ill-at-ease.
