King kansa very well knew, from the prophecy, that the eighth child of his sister devki,would slay him.Then how could he allow not one but eight children of devki to be born , when the couple was his captive.It is told that he considered killing his sister or his brother-in-law would be a great crime.ok.But ,He could very well have kept devki and her husband in different quaters to avoid any possiblity of any children being born. Normally also, male and female prisoners are kept separate.Then,what could be the justification for him allowing them both into one single jail quarter? And surprisingly,above that ,devki and her husband could do 'all that stuff' in midst of prison for atleast 8 years..this is not believable.

Answer 1

I think he wanted the child to be born so that he could kill the child with his bare hands and feel oh so powerful...as if nothing or no one can defeat him. Perhaps he wanted it over and done with so he would not have to worry about it ever again. What if he had Devki and her husband separate but somehow Devki escaped (I don't know how, suppose a guard fell in love with her and they both ran away). King Kansa would forever be worried that somewhere Devki would be getting pregnant and the prophecy will be fulfilled. I don't see why Devki and her husband couldn't do "that" in prison. Don't prisoners in modern day prisons do it? All Devki and her husband had to do was wait until dark when everyone was asleep. They probably had a blanket and the privacy of their own cell.

Answer 2

Abortion was not allowed at the time.He did not want to kill his sister and brother in law.Bad people also have some rules to obey.He let them do all that for that long,so that he can watch and have fun.He did not have X-rated movies that time to watch.Jai Murli Manohar.

Answer 3

Are you talking about any epics?...I don't understand anything....may be wrong category!
