Question -
Answer -
Jumman’s verdict as head Panch was that since the bullock did not suffer from any disability or disease when Sahu bought it, Algu could not be blamed for its death. Therefore, Sahu would have to pay Algu the price of the bullock.
When Algu heard Jumman’s decision, he could not contain his feelings of joy. He stood up and said loudly over and over again, “Victory to the panchayat. This is justice. God lives in the heart of the Panch.”
