"The Tiger King," a chapter in the Class 12 NCERT English textbook, tells the story of
Maharaja of Pratibandapuram, who was obsessed with hunting tigers. He kills a man-
eating tiger, but he is not satisfied and wants to kill more. He is warned that the
Goddess Durga will punish him if he kills another tiger, but he ignores the warning
and kills another. As a result, he is cursed by the Goddess, and a tiger kills him in
the end. The story highlights the consequences of one's irrational desires and the
power of superstition.
