Narrative

You are a group of students coming from Sitapur and going to Shital Nagar

to attend the farewell function of your seniors, being held at 5 pm. You are
required to return to your college at Sitapur by 8 pm to participate in the

practice session of an inter-college cultural competition. On the way to Shital
Nagar, you decided to have a cup of tea and hence, stopped at the tea stall.
Your driver took the opportunity to replace one of the rear wheels as he

suspects it has a puncture. You suddenly saw that the kerosene stove in the
tea stall exploded and the cook got serious burn injuries and fell unconscious.
Just when you were reacting to the situation, an old man approached to tell

you that some miscreants were planning to disrupt the political rally to be
addressed by the local MLA in Songaon at 4 pm which may result in
bloodshed and that the same needs to be prevented. As you discuss the plan

to tackle the new situation, an old lady approaches you for help in getting her
cattle removed from the nearby pond or else they may drown and they are her
only source of livelihood. Just when you were thinking of what to do, a boy

approaches you for help as some dacoits are planning to loot their village
Belapur at 3.30 pm and he needs to alert the police urgently, but the
telephone lines are not working due to thundershowers the previous night.

The time now is 2 pm. Placed in such circumstances, what will you do?
