The Prime Minister and Raghunath inform Gangadhar that they have found no lead yet. It is announced that the reward for any information about the blast has been increased from 5000 gold coins to 8000. Somebody in the crowd utters Lallans name. Just then, Marshall who is in disguise takes Lallan away. Lallan retorts that he will tell the king the truth, so Marshall gets angry. Gangadhar, disguised as a commoner, follows Lallan but loses track. A murder confirms Gangadhar's suspicion about a conspiracy. Gangadhar then sees something in Lallan's hand. On the other hand, Marshall sees one medal missing from his coat.
