Write a short character sketch of Sir Mohan Lal from his conversations with himself in front of the mirror. Class 11 | English (Karma) 6 Marks
Ans:
In the short story “Karma’, Khushwant Singh has elaborately sketched the character of Sir Mohan Lal. At the very beginning of the story, Sir Mohan Lal is seen standing in front of the mirror of the first-class waiting room. For him, the old impaired mirror with red oxide peeling off from its back is symbolic of India and her people-dirty, worn out, unsophisticated and inefficient. He smiles at the mirror with an air of pity which shows that he is proud and snobbish. According to him, the five years which he has spent in London helped him acquire the manners and attitudes of the English upper class, His tenderly nurtured personality has thus disposed of all Indianness in him and adopted the identity of an English gentleman-a distinguished, efficient and handsome Englishman.
