Gayathri added that she didn’t want to be bossy. Hence, she refrained from giving too many instructions to her tribe. Vijayalakshmi and others pinpointed that certain mannerisms of Gayathri weren’t appropriate. Vijayalakshmi spoke about Gayathri walking during the heated discussion while building the tent.
Arjun asked the tribe members to rate Gayathri as a captain. Out of 10, all the members gave only 5 or less than 5 marks. Lady Kash alone gave 6 and added that there are scopes for improvement. Vijayalakshmi and few others complained that Gayathri used to wake up late and didn’t give instructions about their duties on a regular basis.
