Grandmother was very determined, she made a firm decision to learn Kannada at such a big age. She didn't cared about her age and she was having confidence on herself that she will learn Kannada till Dusshera festival was there. 

Grandmother was very hard working. She burnt midnight all and she was very particular with her lessons, she used to read, write, speak, repeat her lessons. She used to do homework more than what was needed. 

Grandmother was a multitasker. She used to do her kitchen work as well as her studies. She didn't compromised with anything. She planned everything accordingly, despite of doing so much work everyday in kitchen, she was having enough energy to Study. 

Grandmother was very respectful. On the day of Dusshera festival she completed her education, and learnt Kannada. She gave the credit to her granddaughter for teaching her and making her an independent women at such an age. She gave her granddaughter a beautiful frock and also touched her feet to show her gratitude towards her granddaughter.

What made Triveni a popular writer?

Triveni was a Kannada writer who used to write stories dealing with complex psychological problems in the lives of ordinary people in a very simple, easy to read and convincing style. This made Triveni a popular writer.


2.    Why did the grandmother depend upon her granddaughter to know the story?

Grandmother did not go to school because of her mother death in her childhood and her early age marriage. She liked the story of Triveni’s struggle to go to Kashi Yatra as she could relate herself with Triveni. Her granddaughter could read. So, she depended upon her granddaughter to know the story.


3.    Pick out two sentences which state that the grandmother was desperate to know what happened in the story.

Following are the sentences which state that the grandmother was desperate to know what happened in the story:

-      During that time, she would forget all her work and listen with greatest concentration.

-      My grandmother too never went to Kashi, and she identified herself with the novel’s protagonist.


4.    Did the grandmother succeed in accomplishing her desire to read? How?

The grandmother succeeded in accomplishing her desire to read. She requested her granddaughter to teach her how to read. She also decided her dead line to complete the task. She grasped things very quickly and did all the assigned homework on time. She would read, repeat, write and recite whatever she was taught. This is how she succeeded in accomplishing her desire to read.


5.    Which of the following traits would be relevant to the character of the narrator’s grandmother? Why?

The grandmother is a determined person. I feel so because she not only showed her curiosity to learn reading but also decided the dead line for her own. She, in order to learn reading, grasped things very quickly, and did all the assigned work on time.
