The other boy asked Ranji to ‘explain’ himself.
(i) What did he expect Ranji to say?
(ii) Was he, in your opinion, right or wrong to ask this question?
(i) The other boy, Suraj, expected Ranji to say ‘sorry’ and leave the pool immediately.
(ii) In my opinion, Suraj was wrong because the pool was not his personal property that he prevented Ranji from entering the pool. The forest belonged to everybody and therefore, the pool was common property.
