[2] This is the base tale of the whole composition of Sri Charitropakhyan from where central plots formed.
The plot is explained in the second tale which is as follows: King Chitra Singh of Chitravati married the damsel of Indra's kingdom.
King Chitra Singh believed her blindly without knowing the side of his son and sentenced him to death.
Mantri, the wise adviser of the King knew that Chitramati was not of a pious character and falsely blamed Hanuvant Singh.
In order to prevent this injustice to be inflicted onto Hanuvant Singh, the adviser shared various accounts of stories depicting different situations intended to make the King realize his folly and improve his decision-making skill.
