Why does the Author say that Iswaran seemed to more than make up for the absence of a T.V. in Mahendra’s living quarters?
Answer :
Iswaran seemed to more than make up for the absence of a T.V. in Mahendra’s living quarters because he provided a very good company to Mahendra. He chatted with Mahendra at night. He had the skill of narrating stories and anecdotes with such realism and suspense that Mahendra enjoyed listening to whatever he narrated. He told stories packed with adventure, horror and suspense. This skill made the author compare Ishwaran with a TV.
