Comprehension Passage
Within six months of becoming a graduate Chandran began to receive Suggestions from relatives
and elderly friends of the family as to "hat he should do "ith himself. Till this time it had never
occurred to him that he ought to be doing anything at all. But now, wherever he went, he was
pestered with the question," Now what do you propose to do?"
" I have not thought of anything yet".
Why don't you go to Madras and study law"
There was his uncle in Nellåre who wrote to him that he ought to do something and try to settle
in life. There was his mother's cousin who advised him to study Law. There was his Madras
uncle who said that staying in Malgudi would not lead him anywhere, but that he ought to go to
a big city and sc•e people. He had immense faith in seeing people. He himself volunteered to give
a letter of introduction to some big man, an auditor in the railways, who Jn turn give a further
introduction to someone else and finally fix up Chandran in the railways. This uncle seemed to
live in an endless dream of introductory letters. Several relatives, chiefly women, asked him
why he did not sit for the Indian Civil Service or the Indian Audit Service Examination.
Chandran felt flattered by their faith in him. There were others who said that there was nothing
like a business occupation; start on a small capital and open a shop; independence and profit . All
sorts of persons advised him to apply fora cleik's post in some Government office. Nothing like
Government service, they said; on the first of the monthyou were sure of your money; security.
Chandran had a feeling of persecution. He opened his heart to his father when the latter was
trimming the roses early one morning.
" I am sorry ,father. that I ever passed the B.A."
"Why?"
"Why should everybody talk about my career ? Why can't they mind their business?" " It is the
way of the world. You must not let that upset you, It is just a form of courtesy , you see." Then
they began to talk of Chandran's future. His father gathered that Chandran had a vague desire to
go to England and do something there. He did not coniider the plan absurd himself' What do
you propose to do in England?" "l want to get a doctorate or something and come back, and then
some quiet lectureship in some college will suit me wonderfully. Plenty of independence and
leisure" After that Chandran went about with a freer mind. To his persecutors he would say:" I
am going to England next year." Some demanded why he was not starting immediately.
Chandran told them: " We can't go to England on an impulse, can we?"
