Narad(famous for creating rift due to some curse by a Hermit) brought
a Mango and there was fight among both the brothers (Ganesh or
Kartic ) that who will get the mango?

| Kartik ney kaha ki vah bada hai kisliye aam par uska adhikaar
hai. Kartik said that he was elder, hence he is entitled to get the
mango.

lautega, aam usko prapt hoga. Narad said that whomsoever travels
round the universe first, he will get the mango.
