Whom did he encounter on his train journey (The Night Train at Deoli)​

Answer 1

He met a pale-looking girl. She was selling baskets. She looks to be poor, but with grace and dignity.

Answer 2

He encountered a girl on his train journey.

• Ruskin Bond is the author of the short story "The Night Train at Deoli." It tells the tale of a brief encounter between a young girl selling baskets on a train platform and an eighteen-year-old college student who is travelling by train. During his travels, he only encounters the girl twice. He is aware of the fact that the girl had his heart.

• A delicately portrayed story about adolescent infatuation is The Night Train at Deoli. It expresses the narrator's love for a beggar basket vendor he meets at a little station while travelling to Dehra Dun. Even though he only only meets the girl twice and never sees her again, he will always think about her.
• The narrator admits that he would never stop travelling at Deoli because it would break his "game," which involved trying to recognise the girl's friendly and familiar face at the station and relishing a surge of anticipation that made him happy.
