Fun and Fun only: How would a politician clinch a financial ‘deal’ with his prospective ‘client’..?

There are really very sincere politicians also in public life, but the number of self serving members have increased by leaps and bounds at all levels, that people are not the least surprised about the deviants on the prowl. The greedy investors take advantage of the weakness of the politicians to achieve their purposes. Just enjoy an imaginery dialogue:

Client: MPji, namaskar. I want a help from you to start a food industry in your constituency..

MP: Oh yes, you are welcome. We are here to help people like you! After all business of sorts are primary for development of the constituency. Tell me what is your investment and what depts have to clear the proposals.

Client: Ji, mine is a novel proposal. Lots of food in the city hotels are wasted daily. I want to collect them, ‘treat’ them for removing stale odour etc and distribute to the poor workers engaged in building contracts in the outskirts of the city, at cheap cost. I have got a ‘treatment’ plant made ingeniously by me that would ‘treat’ the food stuff, pack and print ISI number etc.

MP: ISI..?!! Whoever gives ISI for such bogus food products? I think you are having a big idea to cheat people and earn quick buck. OK, what is your deal?

Client: I had just invested a lakh sir. I have paid advances to local hotels (only C class hotels but stated as A class left overs in the proposal) to forward their left overs to our ‘factory’. Shall I have the pleasure of gifting you Rs.10K sir?

MP: you clever fellow. Give me time. How many hotels you had paid ‘advances’ you said? OK, come in the evening..

Evening: Client: Sir, shall I have the pleasure of giving my small donation sir, in anticipation of your support to keep away the Health Officers, Labour dept etc ?

MP: Hi man, I had enquired and found that you have some outdated packing machines obtained in auction and given advances to collect ‘left overs’ from 37 C class hotels and not 12 numbers as told by you. You intend to sell the stuff at Rs 5 per packet during day time and at Rs 7 in the nights, not just on the outskirts but in the shandy and opposite the Touring Talkies. You have employed already 12 boys (against the Child Labour Act) and inviting Labour Inspector supervision as it exceeds the staff limit for exemption. Taking your expected business outturn and

the legal deviancies, you have to pay me Rs 35 K

Client: sir, please have pity on a small investor and make it 25 k please. When business picks up, I shall make subsequent ‘contributions’ also sir.

MP: OK, I am always for small investors. You must apply for the business as per rules. I shall tell my local Secretary to see you get them sanctioned by the offices. You pay that fellow also 5k. He would help you when I am away to Delhi.

Client: You are so great sir. The Corporation Health Officer is a strict and trouble some fellow sir. I depend only on your support.

MP: Don’t worry I shall see to that. Give me your contribution, I have to go to preside a seminar on ‘’how to prevent corruption in public offices’’ why don’t you also come?

This case is pure imagination. But the likes of deals are going on in almost every area at the cost of public interests, govt losses etc. How do you like this anyway?!!

Update:

Thanks friends for your support. Swamy, the client is from TN and not a cong man, but dravidian MP, so he would not have to disturb Soniaji.

Kandasamy sorry for the lapse. You know i am out of service and do not know the market rates. Just take the course of bargain, forget the figures..!

My niece writes to me:

Athimber, why did you not expose the 'client' fully? You know his reply to MP was:

Client: ''sorry sir, I have the meeting of temple trustees this evening..'' Only these men in ''public'' life would do all the crimes..!!

So i add that here for users to read with the addendum!

Update 2:

Yes Raj sir, I do read lot of Cho's and of his ebullient columnist 'sathya' known for satirical depiction of people in public life. I did follow their pattern just to entertain friends here. Thanks for response even with your headache.

I don't know your workstyle / ambience, but if it involves strain triggering headache, you may find yoga helpful for relaxation, in addition to initial meds.

Good wishes for speedy recovery.

Update 3:

Once a member of the Humour Club was speaking in the Retired Officers' Assn and said, ''we have lost the amrith of humour that keeps people fit from the onslaught of anxiety and tension''!

The discussion is getting more serious with people seeing the pathology behind the every day scene depicted here. I heard a crude joke in a training camp, ''you don't achieve anything by worrying over the inability to address a situation. Rather you get weaker. Say, if you can not prevent a rape, you must stop worrying and be able to relax and enjoy it..!! Though the idea was least in line with our cultural grooming, the suggestion struck a point to analagous situations.

But we are given to worry and anger when we can not address a bad situation effectively. Is it just the force of our values or a weakness ? Don't know!!

Ok, friends I abundantly feel honoured by your responses which gave me lots of inspiring thoughts also.

  • Your Fun and Fun only has a hidden message that should not die with the laughter.

    Politicians are always calculative to garner money by various means.

    Many ministers are ignorant of their portfolios but sources of illegal money transactions involved in their ministry,they are thorough with.

    Money pours in from different directions.

    Not only money the other vices like illicit affair knock at the door.

    Once a Minister was on an official tour.He stayed in a Government Guest House in a town

    Before becoming a minister he had some woman affair in that

    town.

    Now as a Minister he couldn't visit her as she was a woman of bad virtue.

    So without police knowledge,who were stationed there to protect him,he went to her house by jumping the wall.

    But while coming back he covered his head and face with a towel and jumped over the wall of the Guest House.One of the police caught him red handed and when he removed the towel he,to his shock,found it was Minister.

    So these politicians don't have any moral values.

  • Very nice

    I heard from an elderly person long back and sharing you.

    When C.N.Annadurai was CM in 1967-69, a person in very poor state and illiterate but close to Annadurai in the ages of less than ten, being in the same street came for help for his survival.

    It seems Anna directed him to a politician of his own party to get an appointment of a sweeper in corporation so that he can earn his bread. When contacted the concerned, that poor guy was asked for a bribe of about Rs.1000/- which that fellow cannot pay. When he said he was referred by CM, that person replied all are coming for help by quoting someone in high position but only if money is given appointment will be given. Hence he came back to Anna and narrated the matter.

    Immediately Anna wrote a cheque favouring that person for Rs.1000/- with signature ‘C.N.Annadurai’ and kept it in a cover to hand it over to that person to get the job. On opening the cover that person was shocked and rushed to CM for asking apology.

    It is believed Anna advised him, we came to power only to serve the people and if this is the condition it is better we can surrender the power to Congress and step out.

    Poondiji, I am neither pro nor anti, all politicians for me are pack from the same lot of white ants that are slowly eroding our Democracy, I support all the anti – congress, anti – bjp, anti –rss, anti laloo and anti mulayam etc, etc. this works as an pesticide against these pests, otherwise it will be slow extinction of this Democracy due to our apathy and indifference.

    Here are four lines by Galib a self confessed ‘addict’ to wine and what he feels after having a drink

    baaziichaa-e-atfaal hai duniyaa mere aage

    hotaa hai shab-o-roz tamaashaa mere aage

    ik khel hai aurang-e-sulemaa.N mere nazadiik

    ik baat hai ejaaz-e-masiihaa mere aage

    And this is how a corrupt politician ‘addicted’ to power translated/interpreted the above lines when Manmohanji reprimanded him and threatened to report to madam.

    The world is a child’s play before me,

    There is this ‘tamasha’ before me every day,

    It’s a childs play, Manmohan, dare not come near me

    Yes, its true, the miracle ‘Soniaji’ is right there before me

    Good story with one inexcusable blunder.. You failed to mention the MP follows Mahatma Gandhi`s principles,the client forgot to reserve 15% of food packets to SCs,25% to BCs. And both forgot to seek the blessings of "high command IE Sonia Gandhi "
