This happens only in India


This is the story from a great country – in fact a country so great that its history stretches more centuries than any other. This is the story of a great police force – in fact a force so great that even though deficient in men, money and material, still finds resources enough to give ‘special protection’ to few politicians and their sons and sons-in-law. This is the story of a great leader – in fact a leader so great that people die on the roads when he travels.

This is also the story of a little girl, all of 14 years old, an adopted child at that, who wanted to become a world famous spy. So she hatched a plot and came to our capital city along with her 41 year old visually handicapped brother and 83 year old mother. First they pretended to get the brother’s eyes checked at one of the premier eye-care institutes, then they hired a cab and visited all the tourist spots. Then, when the driver of the cab was driving past the residence of our great leader, she clicked few photos with her mobile phone.

The forces guarding the residence came to know of this great espionage attempt and the Delhi Police were immediately informed which sent PCR vans to ‘intercept’ them. The ‘spy in the making’ was caught along with her ‘accomplices’ and ‘grilled’ for three hours. The pictures stored in the mobile phone were deleted and the life of our great leader was saved!

Lesson for the young espionage agent: Next time try for the smaller leaders who live in white houses and palaces across the ocean. They are not so worried about their own security and do not mind people clicking photos of their residences. In fact they are so careless that thousands of visitors are encouraged click photos of their residences! Also in case one has a compulsion for such big leaders, all information along with the latest photos can be downloaded from Google. No need of travelling from one corner of the country to the other.

Kudos to the police force for saving the life of our leader. But there is on small downside – on the day this news item appeared in the papers, they were so busy congratulating and back slapping each other that a murderer walked away from a crowded FOB on a crowded road – and everyone is clueless!

Indeed – ‘This happens only in India’
