Shloka 44
तस्मात् तं परिपप्रच्छ नान्यं कज्चिद् द्विजर्षभ: । तस्मिंस्तस्य हि सत्याशा बाल्यात् प्रभूति पाण्डवे,अतः जन द्विजश्रेष्ठने उन्हींसे वह बात पूछी, दूसरे किसीसे नहीं, क्योंकि बचपनसे ही पाण्डुपुत्रकी सचाईमें आचार्यका विश्वास था
tasmāt taṃ paripapraccha nānyaṃ kaścid dvijarṣabhaḥ | tasmiṃs tasya hi satyāśā bālyāt prabhṛti pāṇḍave ||
সেইবাবে দ্বিজশ্ৰেষ্ঠে তেওঁকেই সুধিলে, আন কাকো নহয়; কিয়নো শৈশৱৰ পৰা পাণ্ডৱৰ সত্যনিষ্ঠাত তেওঁৰ আস্থা আছিল।

Ethically, the verse highlights that in moments of crisis one should seek counsel or confirmation from a person whose truthfulness has been tested over time; trust is grounded in character, not convenience.
Sañjaya reports that a revered Brahmin/teacher figure chooses to question a particular person directly, avoiding others, because he has long-standing confidence—since childhood—in the Pāṇḍava’s honesty.
