Entering his father&#39;s apartments and not finding him there, Bharata moves to his mother&#39;s apartments and, having communicated to her the welfare of his maternal grandfather and others on being questioned by her, inquires of her the whereabouts of his father. Kaikeyi then breaks to him the news of his father&#39;s death, attributing it to Sri Rama&#39;s exile and holding herself responsible for the latter, and after comforting him calls upon him to get himself installed on the throne after finishing his father&#39;s obsequies.
