The Lac Palace
The Lac Palace
King Yudhisthira, the eldest Pandava, was made the yuvaraja (crown prince) of Hastinapur as he was the eldest prince. This made Duryodhana jealous. With the help of his uncle, King Shakuni, he made a plan
to kill the Pandavas. They persuaded the Pandavas to attened a grand
fair in the town of Varnavat. Duryodhana had a lac palace built for
them. Lac burns very easily. He had planned that when the Pandavas were
sleeping in the palace, one of his men would set it on fire and they
would be burnt to death. Vidura, the prime minister, came to know
of this plot and warned the Pandavas to escape. The Pandavas and their
mother Kunti, stayed in the palace on fire. The Pandavas safely escaped
through the tunnel and Duryodhana thought that they had died in the fire
.
