Here ‘The Purpose’ is a mythical play that deals with past and its show us many things like culture, religion and the ancient time of India. ‘Mythical story is always a fable of people’ it’s like a tell that spreading our culture and its value. By the time of king’s rule we can say that some people are creates a kind of view towards it. But in the way myth is;

“By a myth ... I mean primarily a certain type of

story in which some of the chief characters are

gods or other beings larger in power than humanity.”

Kailasam’s plays have a Uniform technical excellence and for this, C.R. Reddy has said that,

“Greater than any writer I have known is Kailasam in dramatic technique.”

Kailasam tried to high-light something which in original myth was neglected. Let’s see how the play Wright made changes in original myth and the reason being behind it. To know about all the things first of all we have to understand this both the Characters. It is very important to understand the play deeply.

Post-Task:-

1.) Compare and Contrast Arjuna and Eklavya's Character.

AKLVYA	ARJUNA
Step son of 'Nishadha" king.	The son of  king Pandu
Worthy student known for his hard work and devotion	A great warrior and the central hero of Mahabharata
Innocent but brave and courageful	The most powerful, Divot, prominent .
Learning the skill of "Shabdvedi" the art of shooting arrows to the direction of sound.	Learning the skill of "Shabdvedi" the art of shooting arrows to the direction of sound
Autodidact student	Formal disciple of ACHARYA DRONA
Nishadha: a caste of lower birth. Guru Dron did not make Aklavya his disciple.	Kashtriy:  Royal family lineage. Nearest student off aacharya dhrona.
Superior  archery than Arjun , proven and accomplished archerer in some specific situation.	Not autodidact: he always use to learn and practice, than becomes the contemplated warrior.
Proved his superiority in archery from the example of dog preventing it from barking with the help of arrows.	Highly concentrated warrior, proved his superiority in " लक्ष्यवेघ"  competition by hitting the eye of a fish.
Too innocent and emotional: sacrifices his own Right hand thumb  in a form of " गुरुदक्षिणा"	Very powerful, contemplated ,student become successful in his dreams and becomes world's best Archer in Mahabharata.

2)Is Dronacharya an ideal teacher? If yes, then how? and If No, then Why? Explain with examples.

"Claims on Dronachary"

Drona wanted Arjun to be a supreme Archer and greatest among, Arjun was his disciple.

if drona would have wanted his disciple to be greatest among all he would have accepted eklavya as his disciple he would have still become a master of the best warrior

Dronacharya hated him or partial towards him.he also offered wisdom to Dryshyadumna who was a son of his own enemy.

Drupada asked for son just to kill drone but on the other hand Drona accepted  Dryshyadumna as his disciple it proves how open-minded Drona was.

Dronacharya supported birth based caste system. Gautam Buddha accepted jabali as his principal who was a son of a prostitute. Narad Muni offered knowledge to Kayadhu, a demoness. Such a system is not authorised by the scriptures.is bruna was a well-known Vedic scholar he cannot reject eklavya just on the basis of his birth.

https://www.quora.com/What-is-wrong-with-the-Indian-education-system

In my opinion, there is no difference between pre-education and current education  Before there was discrimination, competition was taking place.  The values ​​have just changed now.

People are studying before for increasing their knowledge and to be literate people. Nowadays, people are studying for positions, for power and for wealth.   In the 21 St century Study is not a part of life but a means of survival in the world.

Injustice still exists today.  In today's century but now man should learn how to fight.  There is no one  Aklavya available today.  In the field of education, the glory of skills has now increased.  But if not become part of politics .

Hope so....

4)What is Subaltern? Who do you think is the Subaltern in this play? Explain with examples.

The word ‘subaltern’ is drawn from the Late Latin ‘subaltern us’’. Oxford Advanced Learner’s Dictionary

denotes that the word, subaltern, as noun means any officer in the British army who is . Lower in rank’ than a

captain. Its adjectival form denotes ’of inferior rank’. But Italian Marxist, Antonio Gramsci for the first time used it

outside the non-military sense. In Latin ‘sub’ means ‘under’ and ‘alter’ means other. So literally it denotes to any

person or group of inferior. According to some thinkers, perhaps he used the term as a synonym for proletariat.

Literally, he refers to any person or group of inferior rank and station, whether because of race, class, gender,

ethnicity or religion. Gramsci’s explanation of the oppression of the bucolic peasantry in Southern Italy depicts the

persisted oppression of the rural peasantry, the working class, and the untouchables in post-Independent Indian

society.

Examples of subaltern

The movie Talash by Amir Khan throw some light on a very subaltern "prostitute area" of Mumbai. Director give the voice of voiceless group of women

The movie Gully Boy by ranveer Singh , he become the voice ofhe becomes the voice of sabultern area of Mumbai named "Dharavi vasahat"

About both the novels are become the  weapon of subaltern people. It present a very suppressed voice against elite authority.

5.)Write something about your experience like Eklavya or Arjuna with any teacher during your study phase till now. (Not necessary to mention any name)

Luckily I never face any partial teacher in my primary life. To be very honest, 

By my very nature, I have ever been faced that kind of partiality from  my teachers , they always helped me in all activities without discrimination.  Luckily I've never been punished or discriminated against by a teacher.  Even though I may have been discriminated against, I have tried to move forward by acknowledging my mistake.

   Thank you!
