Dear Soubhagyavati Kalaivani,

A very interesting question. A similar issue was
recently addressed by Sriman Sadagopan Iyengar Swami
when he talked about His occasional display of anger.

The key here is that He does not get angry like us - 
that is, an emotion that we are unable to control
and which erupts almost on its own. His anger is per
His own sankalpam. Duryodhana could not have refused
had He wished him not to; so, He knew that Duryodhana 
would refuse, but He displays anger nevertheless to 
teach us that it is correct to rise in anger when 
adharma is practised. Otherwise, people would say that 
even Krishna did not get angry when Duryodhana refused 
to follow the dharmic way. This is adiyEn's 
interpretation, subject to corrections from our learned
members.
