(A) Hari Singh says- “He knew it but neither his lips nor his eyes showed anything.”
Anil successfully addressed the situation by not addressing it at all. Elaborate based on
your reading of The Thief’s Story

Yes it is absolutely true that anil addressed the situation but he behaved like he had not addressed anything. It was not only because of his kind heart. There were many things that made him to do that . Anil had a great trust on Hari Singh. He made Hari his selfless friend. Hari Singh took the money but after that he didn't escaped . This is because he felt anil's trust,love and compassion towards him .He didn't wanted to break the trust ,so he returned. As he understood his mistake so anil showed the similar behaviour . Anil also felt that if he would address him as a thief and send him to jail then there could be a greater possibility that the small thief would be converted into a criminal after coming out. so not to destroy Hari Singh future was one of the thought that made anil to the act in a simple manner. Hari Singh also required studies. Anil always taught Hari due to which his education level was also increasing. so Anil believed that if he would continue his teaching then there could be the possibility that Hari Singh would change his mood and passion.
