After resting for a while, the Pandavas came to the royal court and took their respective seats. Later, Dhritarashtra addressed Yudhishthira and said that in order to avoid further conflict within the Kuru family, the kingdom must be divided.
After the division, a wild barren land, Khandavaprastha, was given to the Pandavas, and Duryodhana kept the prosperous Hastinapur.
Though Khandavaprastha was a rough and barren land that was difficult to inhabit, the Pandavas accepted Dhritarashtra’s decision respectfully, while the Kauravas remained in Hastinapur.
