Educational Q&A
The verse frames Duryodhana’s death as the outcome of kṣatriya-dharma in a righteous battle, while also judging his character as morally corrupt and dishonoring to his lineage—linking ethical failure (adharma) with inevitable consequences.
Yudhiṣṭhira states that Duryodhana has been killed in the war along with his forces and brothers, emphasizing that the killing occurred within the accepted warrior code of the conflict.
