Question

Significance of the title karma by khushwant singh

Answer 1

According to Hindu beliefs, what you get is the result of your karma. You get good results if you do good deeds or actions. Similarly, bad karma results in bad outcomes. The title Karma for the short story by Khushwant Singh is apt because the central character had to pay heavily for his pride and arrogance.

In the story Karma, the key character Mohan Lal is ashamed of being an Indian and acts like a British national. The arrogant nature in him makes him do various things like solving crossword puzzles just to show off his proficiency in English. His dislike for his country and its culture makes him have a sour relationship with his traditional Indian wife. Once, during a train journey, he gets her a seat in the general compartment and seats himself in the first class compartment meant for the British. When two British soldiers attempt to abuse him, he retort. This enrages them and he is thrown out of the compartment. Helpless as he was, Mohan Lal could only see the train speed away.
