The Tiger King NCERT Text Book Questions and Answers<\/h3>\n

The Tiger King Read and Find out<\/strong><\/p>\n

Question 1.
\nWho is the Tiger King? Why does he get that name?
\nAnswer:
\nJilani JungJung Bahadur, the King of Pratibandapuram, is known as the Tiger King. At the time of his birth, the astrologers declared that the prince would have to die one day. The ten-day-old prince asked the astrologers to reveal the manner of his death. The wise men were baffled at this miracle. The chief astrologer said that his death would come from a tiger. The young prince growled and uttered terrifying words: \u2018Let tigers beware!\u2019 He decided to kill one-hundred tigers. He thus, got the name \u2018Tiger King\u2019.<\/p>\n

Question 2.
\nWhat did the royal infant grow up to be?
\nAnswer:
\nThe royal infant grew up to be the King of Pratibandapuram, who was obsessed with the idea of killing one-hundred tigers. He wanted to do so to disprove the prophecy which said that his death would come from the hundredth tiger. This made him kill all the tigers of Pratibandapuram. He even married to achieve this ambition. He came to be known as the Tiger King.<\/p>\n

\"NCERT<\/p>\n

Question 3.
\nWhat did the Maharaja do to find the required number of tigers to kill?
\nAnswer:
\nTo get the required number of tigers to kill, the Maharaja asked his Dewan to find a suitable girl for him to marry. A suitable girl for matrimonial alliance would be one who would not only come from a royal family but also belong to a state with a large tiger population. As Pratibandapuram had no more tigers left, a province that belonged to his father-in-law would certainly provide him with an opportunity to kill more tigers and help him reach his aim of killing one-hundred tigers.<\/p>\n

Question 4.
\nHow did the Maharaja prepare himself for the hundredth tiger which was supposed to decide his fate?
\nAnswer:
\nThe Maharaja wanted to be extremely careful while dealing with the hundredth tiger which was supposed to be the reason for his death. On encountering the hundredth one, he took a careful aim at the tiger and shot at it. When it fell in a crumpled heap, he was overcome with joy and left the place hastily because he thought that he had successfully disproved the prophecy.<\/p>\n

Question 5.
\nWhat will now happen to the astrologer? Do you think the prophecy was indisputably disproved?
\nAnswer:
\nThe astrologer dies before the King of Pratibandapuram gets an opportunity to kill one-hundred tigers. Disproving his prophecy seems to be the sole reason for the King\u2019s existence. Except for killing one-hundred tigers, everything else takes a backseat for the King.<\/p>\n

The prophecy cannot be indisputably disproved as the King was ultimately killed by a tiger, though neither by a real one nor by the hundredth one. Looking at the weak, old and almost lifeless tiger that was the hundredth one, no one would have thought that it would escape the king\u2019s bullet by fainting at the shock of the bullet whizzing past. It was the \u201ctiny little wooden tiger\u201d from the toy shop that caused the death of the Tiger King.<\/p>\n

The Tiger King Reading with Insight<\/strong><\/p>\n

Question 1.
\nThe story is a satire on the conceit of those in power. How does the author employ the literary device of dramatic irony in the story?
\nAnswer:
\nThe story, \u2018The Tiger King\u2019 is a supreme example of dramatic irony. The character acts in a way grossly inappropriate to the actual circumstances or expects the opposite of what fate holds in store for him. Kalki has used a very dexterous use of dramatic irony in the story. After killing the first tiger, the King flaunts its dead body before the astrologer to show that he is more powerful than the tiger. However, the astrologer warns the King that he should be \u2018careful with the hundredth tiger\u2019.<\/p>\n

The King chooses to prove the astrologer wrong once again and makes frantic efforts to kill hundred tigers. Thus, having shot at the old tiger, the Tiger King believes that he has killed the hundredth tiger. But the reader as well as the King\u2019s officers soon come to know that the emaciated tiger does not get killed but only gets faint. The King feels happy about killing the tiger, but in reality, he is ignorant of his ironical fate. The prediction proves right and a mere splinter from a wooden tiger\u2019s body causes his dramatic death. Quite ironically, the hundredth tiger kills the King instead and the astrologer\u2019s prediction stands vindicated.<\/p>\n

Question 2.
\nWhat is the author\u2019s indirect comment on subjecting innocent animals to the wilfulness of human beings?
\nAnswer:
\nThrough this satirical story, the author has rightly portrayed how human beings have subjected innocent animals to untold torture and death, merely to fulfil their own whims and fancies. The Maharaja\u2019s indiscriminate killing of tigers led to their extinction in some states, but the Maharaja was oblivious to the grave consequences, his action was leading to. In order to prove the astrologer wrong, the Maharaja went on a killing spree, proving his dominance over the hapless animals.<\/p>\n

\"NCERT<\/p>\n

Question 3.
\nHow would you describe the behaviour of the Maharaja\u2019s minions towards him? Do you find them truly sincere towards him or are they driven by fear when they obey him? Do we find a similarity in today\u2019s political order?
\nAnswer:
\nMaharaja\u2019s minions were subservient sycophants. Most of them were scared of the Maharaja and tried to keep him in good humour by obeying his orders. They did not dare to disobey him as his displeasure could mean loss of their jobs or even loss of their lives.
\nThe astrologer was afraid of predicting his death, till the Maharaja told him to \u2018speak Vithout fear\u2019. The Dewan, who should have advised the King not to kill the tigers, did not dare to go against his wishes and aided his marriage by finding a princess whose father\u2019s kingdom possessed a large number of tigers.<\/p>\n

When the Maharaja could not find the hundredth tiger, being afraid of losing his job, he presented an old tiger to satisfy the whims of his Maharaja. Likewise, the hunters chose not to inform him of the survival of the hundredth tiger and instead, killed it themselves fearing that they might lose their jobs. Even the shopkeeper, who sold the King a cheap wooden toy tiger, quoted a higher price lest he should be punished for selling something cheap to the King.<\/p>\n

So, it is evident that the King\u2019s minions were driven by fear rather than any feeling of sincerity towards their ruler. Today\u2019s political order is no different. We know too well that many of the people are in power because of their influence and clout. Moreover, others indulge them for their own vested interests, rather than for the good of the country.<\/p>\n

Question 4.
\nCan you relate instances of game-hunting among the rich and the powerful in the present times that illustrate the callousness of human beings towards wildlife?
\nAnswer:
\nThere have been some instances of game-hunting in the present times. Even the affluent have been involved in instances that illustrate the callousness of human beings towards wildlife. Salman Khan – Black Buck poaching case; Nawab Mansoor Ali Khan Pataudi\u2014Antelope case.<\/p>\n

Question 5.
\nWe need a new system for the age of ecology a system which is embedded in the care of all people and also in the care of the Earth and all life upon it. Discuss.
\nAnswer:
\nMan has been destroying life on the earth. Since time immemorial, great wars have taken a heavy toll on human life. Man has even deprived nature of its flora and fauna in the name of development. He has endlessly been cutting down trees and clearing forests to meet his needs for more land to construct home. It has severely affected the ecosystem.<\/p>\n

Towards wildlife, in particular, man\u2019s attitude has been most callous. He has hunted wild animals for food, fun and sport. As a result, several species of animals have become extinct, and many are on the verge of extinction. Therefore, we need to create a new system for ecology which takes care of people and all life upon earth. If man continues to exploit irrationally, life on earth will be a nightmare. Nature\u2019s fury will be unabated. Man should learn to coexist with each other and all the other living beings\/ things to maintain ecological balance.<\/p>\n

The Tiger King Long Answer Questions<\/strong><\/p>\n

Question 1.
\nWho was the Tiger King? What is the story associated with the birth of the Tiger King?
\nAnswer:
\nThe Maharaja of Pratibandapuram was called the Tiger King. At his birth, astrologers predicted that one day, he would actually have tp die. They further said that he would grow up to become a great warrior, a great hero, a great champion, but would die one day. Surprisingly, a miracle took place. The ten-day-old prince spoke in his squeaky voice that \u201ceveryone who is born has to die one day. So it would make sense if they could ‘ tell the manner of the death\u201d. Everyone present there was tongue-tied.<\/p>\n

A baby of ten days not only opened its lips but even asked an intelligent question. The chief astrologer then said that since the prince was born in the hour of bull, and the bull and the tiger are enemies, the death of the prince would result from a tiger. The royal infant was not afraid to hear these words. He grumbled asking the tigers to beware.<\/p>\n

Question 2.
\nGiving a bribe is an evil practice. How did the Tiger King bribe the British officer to save his kingdom? How do you view this act of his?
\nAnswer:Tiger King wanted to disprove the astrologer\u2019s prediction and therefore, started to hunt and kill tigers. Anyone who disobeyed him would be punished and all his wealth and property would be confiscated. In order to have enough tigers to hunt, he had banned hunting tigers in his kingdom. A high-ranking British official came to the state. He desired to hunt tigers. The British officer was also not allowed to hunt. The officer sent a word to get himself photographed holding a gun beside the tiger\u2019s dead body.<\/p>\n

However, the Maharaja refused even that. As the Maharaja had prevented a British officer from fulfilling his desire, he was in danger of losing his kingdom. Hence, he offered a bribe of 50 diamond rings, worth three lakhs to the wife of the British officer. By this act, the Maharaja was able to avert the danger.<\/p>\n

In my view, this reveals the corrupt attitude of both the King and the British official. It also shows how blinded the King was in his ambition (to prove the astrologer wrong) that he wasted the people\u2019s money to appease his ego. He was ready to relinquish people\u2019s hard-earned money to ensure that his longevity is ensured by proving the astrologer wrong.<\/p>\n

\"NCERT<\/p>\n

Question 3.
\nEven today, so many among us believe in superstitions. An astrologer predicted about \u2018the Tiger King\u2019 that he would be killed by a tiger. He \u2018killed\u2019 one-hundred tigers, yet was himself \u2018killed\u2019 by a tiger. How did the superstitious belief prevail?
\nAnswer:
\nA few days after the Maharaja killed the hundredth tiger, it was the third birthday of his son. The Maharaja desired to give him some special gift on this occasion. He purchased a wooden tiger from a toy shop and gifted it to his son.<\/p>\n

That day, the Maharaja and his son were playing with the wooden tiger. The surface of the toy was rough, since it had been carved by an unskilled carpenter. A tiny sliver pierced into the Maharaja\u2019s right hand. He pulled it out. But the next day, the infection spread even in the Maharaja\u2019s right arm. Within four days, it developed into a pus forming sore, spreading all over the arm. Three famous surgeons were called from Chennai. They performed the operation. Even though the operation was successful, the Maharaja passed away. Thus, the hundredth tiger took its revenge on the King.<\/p>\n

This shows that the prophecy did eventually prevail. The hundredth tiger was not killed by the King. However, it died. But with regard to the King, the hundredth tiger, appeared in the form of the inanimate tiger, that caused the death of the King.<\/p>\n

Question 4.
\nThe Tiger King\u2019s quest for tigers was full of hurdles and challenges. Justify the statement.
\nAnswer:
\nThough the Tiger King was reputed to have fought tigers with bare hands, he had to kill hundred tigers for the sake of his life. His refusing permission to hunt in Pratibandapuram to Durai, or even being photographed with a dead tiger, costed him fifty diamond rings of three lakhs worth.<\/p>\n

He had to marry a princess with at least 30 tigers in her father\u2019s kingdom, to complete his quota for killing a hundred tigers. After the 99th tiger, searching for the hundredth proved to be difficult, till Dewan managed an old one from the People\u2019s Park in Madras. Ironically, the Maharaja could not kill it, but his hunters did from a one-foot distance. What a wastage of time, manpower, money and energy, when the Maharaja finally died because of an unskilled wooden tiger\u2019s sliver in his finger.<\/p>\n

Question 5.
\nHow did Tiger King succeed in killing hundred tigers?
\nAnswer:
\nThe Tiger King banned the hunting of tiger in the kingdom of Pratibandapuram. When he came of age, he wreaked havoc on the tiger population in an attempt to hunt a hundred tigers as soon as it was possible. Seventy tigers were killed within ten years. Then he got married in the kingdom where tigers were to be found. At his every visit to his in-laws, he used to kill them.<\/p>\n

Thus, ninety-nine were killed. But the hundredth one was nowhere to be found. He became infuriated and doubled the land tax. Then Dewan Saheb arranged the hundredth tiger from People\u2019s Park in Madras. It was brought in a van by Dewan. He left it in the forest. The King was informed about its presence. He took an aim and shot it. But to everyone\u2019s surprise, the bullet whizzed past his ear and was only killed by one of the ministers of the King.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
