Question

Which of these statements is NOT true?

Options

• Human listeners cannot tolerate Bhisma’s noisy singing.

• Animals too protest against Bhisma’s noisy singing.

• Only the sky remains watching carelessly.

• Big trees and buildings collapse under the impact of Bhisma’s loud voice.

Answer 1

Only the sky remains watching carelessly.

Explanation:

This statement is not true because the poem says, “The welkin weeps to hear his screech,” meaning even the sky seems to react to Bhisma’s terrible singing. Thus, the sky does not remain careless. The other statements describe the exaggerated humorous effects of his loud singing.
