Once upon a time, there lived a herd of elephants in a forest and Chaturdanta was their King. There was a big lake in the middle of the forest where all the animals would go to drink water and to take a bath. Once it so happened that there was no rain for the whole year and the lake had dried up. Many birds and animals died of thirst. The elephants got worried that if they didn't get water soon, many of them would die too. They decided to take the matter to their King and said, ''Your Majesty, you know there is no water in our forest and we require water in order to survive. If we stay here, soon many of us will die. We have to look for water as soon as possible''. The King considered the idea and asked them to go in different directions to find water. Fortunately, one of them found a large lake in a jungle far away. Soon the King ordered all his followers to make their way towards the lake. On the way, there was a settlement of rabbits. The elephants had to pass through the settlement. Thousands of rabbits were crushed under the heavy feet of the elephants and many of them got wounded. The rabbits fled in terror. The situation was becoming worse, so the King rabbit called up a meeting. In the meeting, he said, ''A herd of elephants is killing our friends. I want all of you to think of a way to save our race''. All of them started thinking. Suddenly, a little rabbit derived a plan and said to the King. ''Your Majesty, if you send me as your messenger to the King of the elephants, I might find a solution to this problem''. The rabbit King gave his approval to the idea and he rushed towards the lake. When he saw the herd of elephants returning from the lake, he realised that it was impossible to get near them. So he climbed up a hill and shouted. ''O! King of elephants. Please listen to me''. Upon hearing the rabbit's voice. Chaturdanta stopped for a while and replied. ''Who are you and where have you come from''? The smart rabbit answered, ''I am a messenger sent to you by the Moon God''. The King of the elephants said, ''Why have you come here''? The rabbit replied, ''The Moon God has sent a message for you. Please consider that a messenger is never punished for what he has to say. He is only doing his job so you must not be angry with me''. Chaturdanta confirmed that he would be safe. The little rabbit continued, ''The Moon God is angry with you because you have brought your herd to his holy lake and have disturbed everything. You have crushed thousands of rabbits to death on the way to this lake. Rabbits are under the special protection of Moon God. Since you have bothered the Moon God and his special creatures, he is extremely annoyed with you and wants you to leave his kingdom at once. If not, then you might face terrible consequences.'' The King elephant was scared to hear this message and said, ''You are right. We have killed many rabbits on our way to the lake. But that was not our intention. I will see that you do not suffer anymore. Please

advise me what I should do''. The rabbit replied, ''Ok! I will take you to the Moon God. Pay your homage to the God and ask him to forgive you for the crime you have committed. Come with me.'' At night, the rabbit led the King of elephants to the lake. There they saw the reflected image of the Moon in still water. Just then, a mild breeze blew disturbing the waters of the lake and the Moon seemed to move to and fro. When Chaturdanta saw this, he thought the Moon God was angry at him. He bowed to the Moon God in panic. The rabbit said, ''Oh, Moon God! The King of elephants has committed a sin. Please forgive him. He is taking away his herd from here and promising never to come back''. Frightened Chaturdanta bowed once again to the Moon God and left the place with his herd immediately.

Directions (Q.96-100): Study the following information to answer the given questions. E, F, G, H, I, J, K and L are seated in a straight line but not necessarily in the same order. Some of them are facing south while some are facing north. K sits third to the left of J. J sits at one of the extreme ends of the line. Only one person sits between K and E. Both the immediate neighbours of E face south. E is not an immediate neighbour of J. I sits second to the left of L. Neither I nor L sit at any of the extreme ends of the line. L is not an immediate neighbour of K. F sits to the immediate right of H. G sits second to the right of E. Immediate neighbours of K face opposite directions (i.e. if one neighbour faces North then the other faces south and vice versa). Immediate neighbours of I face opposite directions (i.e. if one neighbour faces North then the other faces south and vice versa). Both G and H face same direction as E. (i.e. if E faces north then G and H also face north and vice versa.) 96. What is the position of E with respect to F? 1) Third to the right 2) Third to the left 3) Second to the right 4) Fifth to the left 5) Second to the left 97.
