"Silence " roared Bhishma and the whole court went silent.
"I will not hear anymore insults regarding Putra karna and putri Kunti. He is your prince,eldest grandson of kuruvansh and he is not an illegitimate child, pandu knew about him before his own demise and accepted,loved him very much as his eldest son."
The letter written by pandu was shown in the court ,proving that pandu indeed accepted karna.
Kunti was crying silently ,she was worried about her son,while draupadi, bhanumati and Gandhari were trying to pacify her."Fine,the letter might be written by Maharaj Pandu but it does not change the fact that Devi Kunti had flown a child ,just born, in the river considering him a sin and as the ruler of Hastinapur ,you need to justify your own actions to the common people ,so that they will not loose respect the royal family."shouted the minister.
"Whoever considers karna a sin ,is the biggest sinner himself." Boomed a voice of a lady at the entrance of the court.
Seeing that lady everyone stood up and folded their hands in front of themselves.
Bhishma went towards the lady and said,
"Mata!....pranipat mata.....why..how....?""Putra Devvrat , bless you,but today I am not here for you, but for the sake of my other son.....my karna."
"Karna....Mata Ganga is here for him.."
"She is here to defend him?!"
"What is going on?"
"How does she know about him?" "who is he exactly?"Whole court went into panic mode ,eye popped, whispering among themselves.
"I am here to answer all your questions." Said Devi Ganga facing the whole court, divinity and confidence on her face with anger towards those who were insulting her karna.
"Before you say anything else, remember that karna is the eldest grandson of kuruvansh , accepted by all the members of his family,he is our honour, our pride and we love him very him, we will do anything to protect him and see a smile on his face......and to answer your next question,let me tell you this....It was me ,who carried him within myself and brought him here to hastinapur, from day one I knew,that he was my great grandson, I took care of him and gave him his initial education,I wanted to bring him home at that time only but could not since destiny had something else planned for him, for him to become the great person he is ,to protect and guide you all ,for your own safety."
Everyone was astonished.
-Later that day after the completion of court proceedings.
"Maiyaa...." Karna stood before Mata Ganga wearing a simple white dhoti with hands folded in front of him and tears in his eyes ,he was looking at her feets, very emotional.
"Putra karna , will you not come near your maiyaa?, Will you not let her caress your hair and put your head in her lap?" Said Devi Ganga.
Karna went near her and put his head in her lap ,while sitting on the ground near her feet.
He was crying. Overwhelmed with the revelation that all his childhood , Devi Ganga was taking care of him in the form of maiyaa."Thank you Maiyaa.....thank you for taking care of me." He cried.
"No,Putra ,it is me who is sorry and thankful towards you..... thanks to you for growing up to become such a wonderful person and sorry for letting you suffer so much without doing anything,I am sorry." Said Devi Ganga.
"No,Maiyaa ....please don't say anything like this....I am grateful towards you and my family,I love you very much ,thank you." Replied karna.
All the family members were looking at this scene in wonder with tears in their eyes.
