Bhima: (angrily) "We need to act immediately. They must be stopped before they cause further damage!"

Arjuna: (calmly) "We need to gather our forces and strategize. This is a test of our preparation and unity."

Draupadi: (worriedly) "What about the safety of the women and children? We need to ensure they are protected."

Krishna: (thoughtfully) "This is a well-planned attack. We must not only defend the city but also uncover any hidden motives behind this assault."

Kunti: (resolutely) "Let's not waste any time. We must rally our troops and defend our kingdom with all our might."

Abhimanyu: (to Surtakarma) "Stay close to us. Your training will be put to the test today."

Surtakarma: (nervously but determined) "I'm ready. I will do my best to protect our kingdom.

Arjuna: (angrily pacing) "The Syamantaka Mani is missing! It was kept in the royal vault, and now it's gone!"

Yudhishthira: (concerned) "We must find out who took it. This is a grave loss."

Bhima: (frustrated) "The attack was not only to seize the kingdom but also to steal the Syamantaka Mani. We need to investigate immediately."

Draupadi: (worryingly) "But how could this happen? The security was supposed to be tight."

Krishna: (calmly) "We should examine the evidence and find out how the thieves managed to breach our defenses."

Arjuna: (grimly) "I suspect that the thieves had inside help. They must have known exactly where to strike."

Soldier: (entering breathlessly) "Rajadhiraj, we found this near the royal vault."

The soldier presents a piece of parchment with what looks like Surtakarma's handwriting.

Yudhishthira: (surprised) "This writing... it matches Surtakarma's script."

Arjuna: (angrily) "It appears he was involved in the theft. How could he betray us?"

Draupadi: (uneasily) "Are you sure? It could be a setup."

Krishna: (thoughtfully) "We should not jump to conclusions. We must gather more evidence before making any accusations."

Arjuna: (fuming) "There is no other explanation. He was seen practicing near the vault. The evidence is clear."

Surtakarma : Maharaj you called me.

ARJUN : I will tell you the reason

Arjuna: (confronting Surtakarma) "Surtakarma, explain yourself! Why was your handwriting found near the vault, and why did the Syamantaka Mani disappear?"

Surtakarma: (shocked and hurt) "Father, I swear I had nothing to do with this. I was practicing archery, as usual."

Abhimanyu: (defensively) "This doesn't make sense. Surtakarma would never do something like this."

Bhima: (suspiciously) "Why would he steal the Syamantaka Mani? It doesn't add up."

Krishna: (intervening) "We must be careful not to make hasty judgments. Let's investigate further."

Arjuna: (angrily) "The evidence points to him. We can't ignore it. Surtakarma, for the safety of the kingdom, you are to be exiled until we find the truth."

Surtakarma: (pleading) "Please, Father, I did not do this. I am innocent!"

Subhadra: (pleading with tears) "Arya, please believe him. He is not the culprit!"

Kunti: (trying to calm the situation) "We must be fair. Let's not act on suspicion alone.

Yudhisthira : Arrest him and take him to the prison cell.
