Answers for 2-Mark Questions | www.WithTeachers.in

Answer 🎯.1 Once the property was transferred, all kindness vanished, and Jumman and his wife Kariman became harsh and rude to her. Answer 🎯.2 She wanted to cook and eat separately because she could no longer bear their insults and mistreatment. Answer 🎯.3 Jumman replied rudely and arrogantly, stating that money did not grow on trees there. Answer 🎯.4 She ran from village to village with a stick to support her, though most people ignored her story before she finally reached Algu. Answer 🎯.5 Algu refused because Jumman was an old and close friend of his, and he did not want to quarrel with him. Answer 🎯.6 She asked him if he would hesitate to say the honest thing just because he feared a quarrel. Answer 🎯.7 Jumman was overjoyed because Algu was his best friend and he expected a favorable verdict. Answer 🎯.8 She told him that nobody can sell their conscience for friendship and that God lives in the heart of the panch. Answer 🎯.9 Algu declared that to him, Jumman and the old aunt were exactly the same, setting aside their friendship. Answer 🎯.10 Algu judged that Jumman must give his aunt a monthly allowance, or else the property must be returned to her. Answer 🎯.11 Jumman felt betrayed, broke off all friendship with Algu, and began looking for a chance to take revenge. Answer 🎯.12 One of Algu's newly bought beautiful pair of bullocks happened to die only a month after the panchayat. Answer 🎯.13 Algu suspected Jumman had poisoned his bullock as punishment for his deception, while Jumman claimed it was divine retribution. Answer 🎯.14 Samjhoo Sahu was an ekka driver who wanted the bullock to easily make three trips a day to the town market. Answer 🎯.15 Samjhoo Sahu promised to pay off the price of the bullock in a month's time. Answer 🎯.16 Sahu overworked the bullock with 3 to 4 trips daily, worrying about his trips rather than giving it proper food or water. Answer 🎯.17 Sahu put a double load on the exhausted animal during the fourth trip and whipped it cruelly until it collapsed and died. Answer 🎯.18 They refused by claiming that Algu had maliciously sold them a dying bullock and therefore deserved no payment. Answer 🎯.19 Algu's enemies gathered around and supported Sahuji, leaving Algu helpless until villagers advised a panchayat. Answer 🎯.20 Samjhoo Sahu stood up and proudly named Jumman Sheikh as the panch on his behalf. Answer 🎯.21 Jumman realized that he was now a judge, his words would be the voice of God, and he must stick strictly to the truth. Answer 🎯.22 Jumman decided that Samjhoo Sahu must pay the full price of the bullock because it died due to his overwork and neglect. Answer 🎯.23 Algu got up, gave a loud cheer, and declared, "Long live the God that is the panch!" Answer 🎯.24 Jumman embraced Algu, apologized for treating him as a mortal enemy, and expressed certainty that God speaks through the panch. Answer 🎯.25 The tears washed away all dust from their eyes, completely restoring their deep friendship.

Section B: 3-Mark Questions (20 Questions)

(Questions with immediate answers for www.WithTeachers.in)

Question ❓.1 Why did Jumman's aunt decide to transfer her property to him in the first place? Answer 🎯.1 Jumman persuaded his old aunt to transfer her small property to his name by treating her with great kindness, respect, and false affection, leading her to believe he would care for her old age.

Question ❓.2 How did the villagers respond when the old aunt sought help initially? Answer 🎯.2 Most people in the village did not hear the poor woman's story with care and attention, nor did they offer her any comfort or assistance, forcing her to wander from village to village.

Question ❓.3 Describe the moral dilemma faced by Algu Chaudhuri when the aunt approached him. Answer 🎯.3 Algu was caught between personal loyalty to his close friend Jumman and his moral duty to support justice. He initially wanted to stay out of it, but the aunt's words about conscience challenged his integrity.

Question ❓.4 What arguments did the aunt present when she appointed Algu as the Chief Judge? Answer 🎯.4 She reminded Algu that a panch is nobody's friend or enemy and that God lives in the heart of the panch, urging him to judge fairly without fear.

Question ❓.5 Analyze Jumman's mindset right before Algu announced the first judgement. Answer 🎯.5 Jumman was completely confident that he had already won. He imagined that Algu's hesitation and talk about friendship were mere shows, keeping his heart completely at peace.

Question ❓.6 What was the exact verdict delivered by Algu in the first panchayat? Answer 🎯.6 Algu ruled that the elders considered the matter proper and decided that the aunt should receive a monthly allowance from Jumman; otherwise, her transferred property must be returned to her.

Question ❓.7 How did the outcome of the first panchayat impact the personal lives of Jumman and Algu? Answer 🎯.7 It completely shattered their long-standing friendship. They stopped talking to each other altogether, and Jumman began actively plotting to take revenge on Algu.

Question ❓.8 Describe Samjhoo Sahu's business and why he needed Algu's bullock. Answer 🎯.8 Samjhoo Sahu drove an ekka to town, carrying ghee and sugar there and bringing back salt and oil to sell in the village. He wanted Algu's bullock to easily increase his trips to three a day.

Question ❓.9 How did Samjhoo Sahu's ruthless greed lead to the bullock's demise? Answer 🎯.9 Sahu completely neglected the animal's welfare, ignoring food and water. Driven by greed for more trips, he placed a double load on the exhausted animal and beat it cruelly until it died.

Question ❓.10 Explain the situation Algu faced when he demanded payment for the dead bullock. Answer 🎯.10 When Algu asked for his money, Sahu and his wife turned hostile and fraudulent, shouting that Algu had cheated them by giving a dying bullock. Backed by Algu's enemies, they refused to pay.

Question ❓.11 Why did Samjhoo Sahu choose Jumman as the panch for the second dispute? Answer 🎯.11 Sahu chose Jumman because he knew Jumman and Algu were bitter enemies due to the past verdict, assuming Jumman would rule against Algu out of revenge.

Question ❓.12 Describe the internal transformation Jumman experienced after being chosen as judge for the second time. Answer 🎯.12 Though initially surprised, Jumman realized the immense sanctity of his role. He reminded himself that as a judge, his voice represented God and he must adhere strictly to the truth.

Question ❓.13 What factors did Jumman consider before giving his verdict in the second panchayat? Answer 🎯.13 The elders questioned both parties thoroughly, and Jumman concluded that the bullock died entirely because Sahu drove it too hard without making proper arrangements to feed it.

Question ❓.14 What was the immediate reaction of the villagers and Algu to Jumman's second verdict? Answer 🎯.14 Algu was overjoyed, stood up, and shouted a loud cheer praising the panch as God. The rest of the villagers were deeply moved, recognizing the divine fairness in Jumman's act.

Question ❓.15 Discuss the emotional reconciliation between Jumman and Algu at the end of the story. Answer 🎯.15 Overcome by guilt and respect, Jumman approached Algu and embraced him, admitting that his desire for revenge vanished because God truly speaks through the panch. Both broke down in tears.

Question ❓.16 What role does "conscience" play as a central theme in "The Village Judge"? Answer ❓.16 Conscience is portrayed as a supreme moral voice that overrides personal relationships, biases, and revenge, guiding individuals toward absolute truth and divine justice.

Question ❓.17 How does Prem Chand use the character of the aunt to drive the plot forward? Answer ❓.17 The aunt serves as a catalyst for moral awakening. Her courage in facing betrayal and her appeal to justice force both Algu and later Jumman to choose righteousness over personal convenience.

Question ❓.18 Contrast Samjhoo Sahu's character with that of Algu Chaudhuri. Answer ❓.18 Algu is honest, reliable, and respectful of justice, whereas Samjhoo Sahu is greedy, exploitative, cruel to animals, and dishonest regarding his financial commitments.

Question ❓.19 Why is the title "The Village Judge" deeply symbolic? Answer ❓.19 The title highlights that true justice and integrity are not bound by formal courts but can be upheld by ordinary villagers acting as impartial judges guided by divine conscience.

Question ❓.20 Summarize the moral lesson imparted by Prem Chand in this story. Answer ❓.20 The story teaches that true friendship and human dignity are preserved through honesty and fairness, and that holding onto personal grudges dissolves when one embraces truth and justice.
