When Duryodhana won Sati Draupadi in the dice game, he asked
his brother Dushasana to bring Sati Draupadi. Dushasana grabbed Sati Draupadi by
her hair and dragged her to court. Sati Draupadi appealed to everyone, "I am
the honour of this family. Why is everybody sitting and watching me being disgraced? When King Yudhisthira had lost himself in the game, did he have any right to stake me?"
The Pandavas could not do anything, as they were now servants of Duryodhana. King Karna asked Dushasana to strip Sati Draupadi of her clothes. Dushasana caught hold of one end of her sari and started pulling it. Helpless, Sati Draupadi prayed to Lord Krishna. To everyone's amazement, Dushasana kept pulling the sari but it would not end. In this way Lord Krishna saved the honour of his devotee.
