4th The story-Kudha Kasam -Gaurav MIshra ,palak Bhutani,Shilpi Marwaha, 

5th story-Sharifan brings out how violence leads to violence. A Muslim father, to avenge the rape and death of his daughter, goes on to rape and kill a Hindu girl; her father in turn stumbles out of the house just as the Muslim father had- perhaps to rape a girl of another religion. Manto deliberately leaves his story open-ended many a time, as if to suggest that violence, revenge cannot have an end; they go on and on and on. The story starts with the Muslim father shouting out his daughter’s name, “Sharifan! Sharifan” and ends in the Hindu father’s shouts of “Bimla! Bimla”.-Charu Gidwani

6th Story- Shyaha Hasiye-Manoj yadav,Shilpi, Gaurav,Ishwak,Suraj ,Shiv
