Enimity with Vali

The meeting between Sri Rama and Sugreeva  takes place and Sri Rama and Sugreeva take the oath of friendship before an altar of fire. Sri Rama assures to eliminate Vali, from the face of earth and Sugreeva promises to help Sri Rama for searching Seeta by sending his troops.

On enquired about, Sugreeva tells Sri Rama about the cause of enimity with Vali.

After the demise of their father Riksharajasa,  all the ministers made Vali the king of all the Vanara-s as he is the elder.  Sugreeva had always bowed down to him like a servant and stood by him.

There was a great enmity between this Maayaavi, a fierce demon, and Vali owing to some female.   Maayaavi arrived at the doors of Kishkindha one night and blared very much inviting Vali for a fight.

Vali spurned all efforts by Sugreeva and others to prevent him and forged ahead, and then Sugreeva also started to go along with Vali.  A great fear was induced in that demon on seeing two brothers coming from a distance, and then he quickly ran away.

Maayavi speedily entered an un-enterable cavity under the ground, and Vali followed him keeping Sugreeva as a guard at the entrance of the cavity. 

Well over a year is over after his entering into that cleavage, and after a long time blood with foam gushed out of that hole, and on seeing it Sugreeva was deeply saddened.

Though sounds of screaming demon came to his ear,  the screeches of his brother were unheard to Sugreeva.  Sugreeva surmised and concluded in mind by the indications that his brother was finished.

Sugreeva covered the cavity's opening with a big  boulder,  and performed water oblations to his deceased brother with saddening pain, and then returned to Kishkindha.  Then duly summoned by all of those ministers Sugreeva was crowned.

While he was ruling the kingdom judiciously, Vali returned on killing that demoniac enemy but seeing Sugreeva crowned his eyes were reddened in anger, and he arrested all Sugreeva’s  ministers and he spoke rudely. 

Vali could not be appeased in spite of repeated requests as he is resolved to accept Sugreeva as an enemy. Vali captured Ruma, the wife of Sugreeva and banishes Sugreeva from the kingdom with the same thinking.

------

The reason for Vali not getting appeased may not be anger alone.  If it was so, it will wane away with the passage of time.  But Vali, apart from banishing Sugreeva from his kingdom, captured Ruma, the wife of Sugreeva, and enjoyed conjugal bliss with her, while Sugreeva is very much alive. 

He might be eyeing Ruma, his sister-in-law and is equal to his daughter, for a longer period and might be waiting for an opportunity to capture her.  Taking Sugreeva’s role in Maayavi episode as a pretext, he grabbed Ruma.
