प्रश्न
Which one among the following is not a major character of the novel? Justify. (Select the correct one)
विकल्प
Phileas Fogg
Aouda
James Strand
Jean Passepartout
उत्तर
James Strand
Explanation:
He is the robber, who had robbed the Bank of England and was arrested three days before Fogg’s mistaken arrest. Though the pursuit of Fogg as “the robber” is one of the subplots, James is only mentioned in the novel at the time of his arrest. Thus, he is not a major character.
