Story-telling has been one of the best and most commonly used methods of instruction in informal education, religious propagation, rural development, etc. Over the years, certain etiquettes have been developed that are associated with story-telling. Before the story teller begins the narration, he asks, are you ready to listen? The listeners respond with 'Yes' sound. This ensures proper attention when the story is narrated. The listeners often make some kind of sound at regular intervals to express attention. So important topics which help in proper development of the rural people can be touched through the stories.
