I believe most of us interacting on this thread are women.
Can you be honest and tell me if you have never heard of in your own social circle of some girl being groped or molested specially in public transport.
And she simply froze and did not react.
Never raised a voice or even squirmed. Because she was shocked that this was happening to her.
Its easy to say she would have protested for someone who has never faced assault themselves. Only the people who have gone through it know the pain.
And this is 21st century....
Arjuna was the best warrior of the time, even an akshauni of battle trained warriors lost their lives at his hands do you all really feel a few bodyguards would be able to stop him.
But yes Subhadra did not protest, she did not scream like Draupadi. She gave up and resigned herself to her destiny unlike Draupadi who refused to be cowed down and was willing to pay any price for justice
And because she did that Arjunas descendents and Krishnas devotees got the opportunity to whitewash the incident
Based on all the above posts.... Are you all able to see how easy it is for you to believe that Duryodhan may have done it, Samba would have done it.
But Arjun cant.... He is the good guy....
You explained it in a much better way than I could
And not just that Arjun could have easily defeated the bodyguards, we must also remember that Krishna was also involved in the plan. He might have actually ordered the body guards not to act against Arjun
