why did not give the knowledage of eklavya by sir,Dronacharaya?

Answer 1

*HE wanted Arjun to be the best ......... & without any rival !!!!

Answer 2

Dronacharya was teaching in the dwapar yuga when caste distinctions were clearly defined and an individual's duties were to be carried out in accordance with his caste. Eklavya was a Bheel, the hunter class, that was not supposed to be able to learn archery or any other form of knowledge to handle weapons, that were in the exclusive domain of the kshatriya caste. When Eklavya became proficient in archery due to his natural talent, by simply learning from a clay statue of Drona, Dronacharya most shamelessly asked for Ekalavya's right hand thumb, and imagine the effect of the Dwapar Yuga, Eklavya readily agreed to his Guru's wish. This parable proves that human beings should be categorized into various castes on the basis of their deeds rather than their birth into a particular caste. The story of Eklavya till date provides inspiration to the talented young men and women of the deprived castes. But this story also leaves a big question mark on the reason for maintaining caste system till date.

Answer 3

Dronacharya was appointed to give knowledge to Kshatriyas only...i.e the persons belongs to kingdom only....n Eklavya was a lower cast boy.

Answer 4

my dear buddy dronacharya has promised arjun that he make best archer in his school and india ,so when he saw eklavya can excel more than arjun he asked to eklavya to cut the thumb of eklavya and neither he gave the knowledge.

Answer 5

In the epic Mahabharata, Ekalavya (Sanskrit: एकलव्य, ékalavya) is a young prince of the Nishadha tribes, and a member of a low caste, who nevertheless aspires to study archery in the gurukul of Dronacharya. After being rejected by Drona, Ekalavya embarks upon a program of self-study in the presence of a clay image of Drona. He achieves a level of skill equal to that of Arjuna, Drona's favorite and most accomplished pupil. Fearful that Ekalavya will excel him, Arjuna begs Drona to take action. Drona goes to Ekalavya and demands that Ekalavya turn over his right thumb as a teacher's fee. The loyal Ekalavya cripples himself, and thereby ruins his prospects as an archer, by severing his thumb and giving it to Drona.

Drona's rejection of Ekalavya

In the Mahabharatha, Ekalavya is introduced as a young prince of the lowly Nishadha tribes. Ekalavya was born to Devashrava (brother of Vasudeva, who was father of Krishna)[2] and was raised by Hiranyadhanus, the leader (King) of the Nishadhas, who was a commander in the army of Jarasandha (the king of Magadha)[3].

Desirous of learning advanced skills of archery, he seeks the tutelage of Drona, the legendary weaponsmaster of and instructor of Arjuna and his brothers. Drona, however, rejects Ekalavya on account of the prince's humble origins.
