Giving bribe is an evil practice. How did the tiger king bribe the british to some his kingdom? how do you view this act of his

Answer 1

The Tiger King had to bribe the British officer’s wife in order to save his kingdom. The British officer wanted to hunt a tiger in the King’s kingdom. But the Maharaja was firm in his resolve. He refused permission.
The British officer’s secretary sent word to the Maharaja through the Diwan that the durai (the British officer) himself did not have to kill the tiger. The Maharaja could do the actual killing. What was important to the durai was a photograph of him holding the gun and standing over the tiger’s carcass. But the Maharaja would not agree even to this proposal. If he relented now, what would he do if other British officers turned up for tiger hunts? Because he prevented a British officer from fulfilling his desire, the Maharaja stood in danger of losing his kingdom itself.
The Tiger king then sought his wise Diwan’s advice. He suggested that the British officer’s wife could save them from losing their kingdom. So, they sent fifty diamond rings as bribe to The ‘duraisani’ (The British Officer’s wife) expecting her to keep one or two out of them and send the rest back. However, the ‘duraisani’ turned out to be very greedy; she kept all the fifty rings and sent a ‘thank you’ letter to the king.

Answer 2

The Tiger King sent a telegram to a famous British jewelers in Calcutta to send expensive diamond ring samples of different designs.

Explanation:

• The British jewelers send fifty rings which the King sent to the British Officer’s wife thinking a few of them will be chosen and the rest will be sent back. However, the British officer’s wife sent only a thank you note for the gift and retained all the rings.
• A couple of days later, the Tiger King received the bill from the jewelers which he happily paid as he had managed to retain his kingdom. Hence, something done for the welfare of the country or people, even if it is an act of bribe, is justifiable.
