She had no other option at the time how could she handle things better? she was in constant fear of Krishna's reaction he had just tried to rape her people overlook this serous issue. when all he had to do was support her. And if he had supported her he did not have to reveal this persona fact, it' s not necessary his wife be pregnant so soon after marraige all he had to say was he lied to make them happy which was the truth.yaar.. ma not saying Krishna is always good he is faults too!! Pratigya knows that Krishna is doing a foolish thing telling evry1 PRatigya is pregnant...
she was time again n again been telling warning him that this is all worng...she was all sensible then,,i dont deny...at the ha van,..she had decided to tell the truth realising thigns are going beyond limits...she cud ahve handled better..her education n sanskaar shud have played a vital part there.....is wat i say...y her razor sharp brain became so blun there...??to show Krishna is a very good humna being..do one expect to show him supprting his wife saying yeah my wife is correct..she ahtes me..she never allows to touch her n all..its me who lied..am sorry!! that is competely unrealistic!!even the best of best man wudnt ahve dont taht...seriously!!wen she blurted outt eh truth ..he juz tried to take things under control...asking to calm down ..juz leave it n take part in the pooja ...smth like that....
Look at the Shakti scenario he forced his wife to abort 4 children but all he got was one slap, and because it was his son who was at fault it was forgotten and never brought up again. If Krishna had spoken up when it was most necessary things would not have gone out of control, because he would not have been punished at all even now was he?
He asked her to calm down, when she continued he so easily put the entire blame on her really the truth was out why not support her, but his ego got in the way.
