how was the trial conducted in 'the kingdom of fools' and what was its outcome?
Answers
Explanation:
A kingdom where everything costs a rupee- be it a measure of rice or a bunch of bananas. A kingdom where everyone sleeps in the day and works throughout the night. Strange, isn’t it? Well,‘In the Kingdom of Fools’, anything is possible. This amazing story takes us through the little journey of a Guru and his disciple in this weird kingdom.
Following people were tried in the king’s court:
The merchant whose house was burgled: He was pronounced guilty because his wall was weak that fell upon the burglar and killed him.
The bricklayer who built the wall: He had built a wall which was weak and which collapsed killing the burglar.
The dancing girl: She was tried for distracting the bricklayer with her jingling anklets by walking up and down the road where bricklayer was laying the wall.
The goldsmith: He was tried as he didn’t complete the dancing girl’s order on time and so she had to walk up and down to his house a dozen times.
The king then came to the conclusion that the goldsmith should be punished and summoned him. But when he was summoned to the court he in turn shifted the whole blame on to the merchant’s father who pressurised him for completing his order first due to which he (the goldsmith) could not complete the girl's order in time.
