	Draupadi - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Yudhishthira and his four brothers were the rulers of Indraprastha under the sovereignty of Emperor Dhritarashtra.
		Yudhishthira walks into the trap and to the horror of everybody present, puts Draupadi as a bet for the next round.
		Now in an emotional appeal to the elders present in the forum, Draupadi repeatedly questions the legality of the right of Yudhishthira to place her at stake when he himself had lost his freedom and as a consequence did not possess any property in the first place.
