What all facts Maya collected about Mr Nath?
उत्तर
Maya collected the following facts
His name was Mr Nath and they must find out his first name. Other tenants at Shankar House called him mad, strange and unfriendly.
He didn’t speak with anyone and lacked manners. He never received any letters and has been living as tenant in Room No 10 in Shankar House. He didn’t use to work anywhere and was at his room the whole day. All the kids and some of the grown up people in Shankar House were scared of him.
He had no visitors except the same man on every Sunday. Ramesh used to get his food from the restaurant downstairs and Mr Nath was not much bothered about it. He used to pay him immediately and also used to give tips.
