अमात्यैर्बलिभिर्दुष्टैर्दुर्बलस्य दुरात्मभिः । कोशो बलं चापहृतं तत्रापि स्वपुरे ततः ॥ ८ ॥
amātyairbalibhirduṣhṭairdurbalasya durātmabhiḥ kośho balaṁ chāpahṛitaṁ tatrāpi svapure tataḥ
Translation
Then, in his own capital, his powerful, wicked ministers took his treasury and army from him, now that he was weak.
Hindi Meaning (हिंदी अर्थ)
तब उनकी अपनी राजधानी में ही उनके बलवान, दुष्ट और दुरात्मा मंत्रियों ने, राजा को निर्बल देखकर, उनका खजाना और सेना छीन ली।
Commentary
The final betrayal comes from inside: his own ministers. Suratha loses not only power but trust, which is what makes his later attachment to them so painful.
