Question

This Rajam was a rival to Mani. He behaved with Mani with a certain nonchalance which Mani was not used

to. If Mani jabbed; Rajam jabbed; if Mani clouted; he clouded; if Mani kicked, he kicked. If Mani was the overlord

of the class, Rajam seemed to be nothing less. And add to all this the fact that was a regular seventy percenter,

second only to Sankar. There were sure indications that Rajam was the new power in the class. Day by day as

Mani looked on, it was becoming increasingly clear that a new menance had appeared in his life. All this lay

behind his decision on the river steps to bundle up Rajam and throw him into the river.
