So, Brajmukut went to sell the jewellery in the same shop where the King got his jewellery made. The jeweller recognized the jewellery. He immediately informed the King. The King had Brajmukut arrested. He was presented before the King. The King asked, “Who gave you this jewellery?” Brajmukut replied, “A friend gave it to me.” The King summoned the friend to the court. It was Ratanraj. The King asked Ratanraj the same question. Ratanraj said, “Your Majesty, a witch attacked me at night. I too attacked her with my trident and snatched all her jewellery. You can find the bruise-marks when you see her.” Somehow, the King found out that Princess Padmavati had the bruise-marks. He banished her from his kingdom. The sad princess left the kingdom and met Brajmukut. But when she came to know the truth from Brajmukut, she was very happy.
The Princess is Banished
