The two devils Subahu & Marich get to know that Vishwamitra is again conducting yagya, so they again decide of disturbing him. They plan to kill Ram & Laxman thinking they are still young to fight them back.

Ram & Laxman strike arrows to them & Marich is flown off by the arrow, seeing this even Subahu flees away. Then the whole crowd of demons (rakshas) surrounds them. Ram & Laxman are unsuccesful to stop them.

Laxman creates a boundary of arrows of fire around the yagya place so that they cannot enter it. The devils got burnt to ashes & all got destroyed.
