It explores the themes of belief and human folly through a provocative narrative centered around the effects of dynamite cartridges. The story captures a moment of intense discussion among Indian workers regarding the dangers of dynamite, ultimately highlighting the extreme lengths to which one's convictions can lead. In the tale, a group of workers debates the lethal impact of dynamite on the human body. One individual, eager to prove his stance that the effects are harmless, volunteers to demonstrate using a dynamite cartridge. However, as a result of the explosion, he loses his hand yet remains steadfast in his belief that it was not the cartridge but rather a faulty component that caused the injury. Following this harrowing event, he embraces his new life with an iron hook for a hand, becoming a feared figure among his peers. The story serves as a commentary on the absurdities of human belief systems and the lengths to which people will go to validate their opinions, no matter the consequences.
