• A. Scold him to teach him a lesson as these things are not good for society.
• B. Give him little extra money without making any hue and cry.
• C. Bluntly refuse to give him any money as asking extra money is an act of cheating.
• D. Tell him that you will give him only the normal fare at that moment and extra money he can take from you, the next day.

Hint:

In difficult interactions, keeping calm and acting without creating more conflict is often the most effective approach.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

In such a situation, it is best to respond without making the situation worse. Giving him the extra money quietly is the simplest solution, as you avoid further conflict or agitation. It’s also important to act with kindness where possible, especially in small daily exchanges.
