A group of well-wishers gathered to congratulate Gajraj. Upon hearing the news of his victory, Damodar donkey from the nearby village also made his way to the forest to congratulate him. Damodar and Gajraj became friends when Gajraj first visited Damodar's village in search of water, and Damodar guided him to the pond. They would occasionally meet after that.
"Congratulations, Gajraj, my friend!" exclaimed Damodar happily, placing a garland of flowers around Gajraj's neck. Gajraj welcomed him with a warm hug. With great respect, Gajraj introduced Damodar to the other elephants and animals present, ensuring everyone felt welcome.

During this time, Gajraj turned to Damodar and said, "Friend, you have many years of experience as a politician and an administrator. Now that I have become an MP, do advice for me?" you have any essential "What advice can I give? I am just doing my job, but perhaps I can share a story that could be helpful," replied Damodar.
