What are some facts about Mahabharata? Originally Answered: What are some facts about Mahabharat? Duryodhana is lying in the battle field, awaiting death, badly bruised by the wounds inflicted by Bhima. He kept his three fingers in a raised position and is unable to speak. All the efforts made by his men to understand the meaning proved to be futile. Seeing his plight Krishna approached him and said "I know what issues occupied your mind. I will address them". Krishna identified the issues as: Not building a fort around Hastinapur, Not persuading Vidura to fight the battle, and Not making Ashwatthama the commander-in-chief after the death of Drona. Krishna identified the issues as - not building a fort around Hastinapur, not persuading Vidur to fight the battle, not making Aswathama the commander-in-chief after the death of Dronacharya. Krishna explained further that if you would have built a fort, I would have asked Nakul to mount the horse and destroy the fort; if you would have succeeded in persuading Vidur to participate in the battle, I would also fought the battle and if Aswathama was made the commander-in-chief, I would have made Yudhistir angry. On hearing this Duryodhan closed all the fingers and within seconds he left his body. Many of us do not know that Nakul can drive his horse even in heavy rain without getting wet. He travels with such a speed between a drop and another drop, without getting wet. Only Nakul can do this among Kaurav and Pandav warriors. It also seems that if Yudhistir gets angry, everything that falls within the range of his eye sight will be burnt.
