Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Dronacharya had been the preceptor of most kings involved in the Kurukshetra War on both sides. Dronacharya strongly condemned Duryodhana exiling the Pandavas, as well as the Kauravas’ general abuse towards the Pandavas.

Detailed explanation-2: -Death of Dronacharya : On the 15th day of the Mahabharata war, Drona got instigated by Duryodhana’s remarks of being a traitor. He used the Brahmastra against the Pandava soldiers.

Detailed explanation-3: -Drona asked for Ekalavya’s right thumb, knowing that its loss will hamper Ekalavya’s ability to pursue archery.

Detailed explanation-4: -He knew that Eklavya was way much better than Arjuna in archery. He had already promised Arjuna to make him the best archer in the world. If he would have taught Eklavya, his promise wouldn’t have been true. This is why Guru Drona refused to teach archery to Eklavya.
