1. Why was Kunti disturbed?

Answer: Kunti felt worried because the Pandavas were going to fight the Kauravas, meaning Karna would battle his own brothers. She feared her precious first-born son might kill them or get killed himself.
(কুন্তী চিন্তিত হৈ পৰিছিল কাৰণ পাণ্ডৱসকলে কৌৰৱসকলৰ বিৰুদ্ধে যুদ্ধ কৰিবলৈ ওলাইছিল, যাৰ অৰ্থ হ’ল কৰ্ণই নিজৰ ভাতৃসকলৰ লগতেই যুদ্ধ কৰিব লাগিব। তাই ভয় কৰিছিল যে তাইৰ মৰমৰ প্ৰথম সন্তানটোৱে হয়তো সিহঁতক হত্যা কৰিব বা নিজেই নিহত হ’ব।)
2. Who were the rivals?

(তাই কৰ্ণক লগ কৰিবলৈ গংগা নদীৰ পাৰলৈ গৈছিল, কাৰণ তাই জানিছিল যে কৰ্ণই তাত ৰাতিপুৱাৰ প্ৰাৰ্থনা কৰি থাকিব।)

(কৰ্ণই দুৰ্যোধনক এৰিবলৈ কিয় অস্বীকাৰ কৰিছিল?)

(কৰ্ণই দুৰ্যোধনক এৰিবলৈ অস্বীকাৰ কৰিছিল কাৰণ কৌৰৱ ৰাজকুমাৰজনে তেওঁক ধন, ৰাজ্য আৰু ক্ষমতা দিছিল। আটাইতকৈ গুৰুত্বপূৰ্ণ কথাটো হ’ল, দুৰ্যোধন এজন প্ৰকৃত বন্ধু আছিল যিয়ে তেওঁক বেয়া সময়ত সহায় কৰিছিল।)
7. Did Karna become a traitor?
(কৰ্ণ এজন দেশদ্ৰোহী বা বিশ্বাসঘাটক হৈছিল নেকি?)
Answer: No, Karna never became a traitor. He chose not to abandon his true friend Duryodhana during the war.
(নহয়, কৰ্ণ কেতিয়াও বিশ্বাসঘাটক হোৱা নাছিল। তেওঁ যুদ্ধৰ সময়ত নিজৰ বিশ্বাসী বন্ধু দুৰ্যোধনক এৰি নোযোৱাৰ সিদ্ধান্ত লৈছিল।)
