Udayan and Vasavadatta
Next day the prime minister wrote a reply and gave it to the messenger who returned to Ujjayini and gave the letter to Chandapradyot.
Greetings to the respected king of Avanti. It is a matter of great joy to get your cordial invitation. However, we regret that as our king is preoccupied
with important state matters he is unable to accept your instructions. Please excuse us.

He at once called his minister of secret affairs and said
Jain Education International
Sire, if you say so we can make impossible possible. This is a nothing.
Reading the letter, Chandapradyot's face turned red with anger
SCOT
I want Udayan in Avanti by force or by connivance.

The minister prepared a plan and presented before Chandapradyot
Sire, tomorrow I will put skilled artisan on the job. The work will be done within four months.

A pet lamb makes a cross ram. All right, Chandapradyot knows how to get what he wants.
Indeed, it is a brilliant plan. Launch it at once.
