In revenge for molesting your sister

it’s fine to kidnap Rama’s wife

The one who disfigured my sister,

his wife I am going to bring here

There is no woman like her on earth

nor can find one in the heavens

Sloka:

Sreerama killed Khara and Dooshana. A demon came with the news to their king Ravana.
