Answer 1

The summary of the first scene The Watchman of the lake by R.K. Narayan is,  Mara is pleading with the headman who was in the process of constructing the road as the king would be visiting soon, to allow him to meet the king.  He wants to inform the king about the warning received from the River Veda about building a tank around it so that no farmers will suffer.

The headman doesn’t understand his dream and throws him in the cell with his hands and legs tied.  It was the goodness of Bhima that Mara was able to escape and meet the king by falling from a tree and stopping the king’s procession. This determination ultimately helps the place to get a lake and he becoming the watchman of the lake.
