Draupadi Questions and Vidura Supports

When the Pandavas lost at dice, Dushasana dragged Draupadi into the assembly ,Draupadi had asked Duryodhana how he could have won her. Draupadi had five husbands and one of them alone did not have the right to put her up as the wager.

It was also understood that when kings were in the midst of hunting, drinking, gambling and merriment with women, they were no to be held accountable for what they said.

Considering all this, how could Draupadi belong to the Kauravas. Vidura suggested that the elders in the assembly should answer this. He said that any wrongdoing would not go unpunished and cited the example of the fight between Virochana and Sudhanwan
