Oru Constable'in kadhai
Its one fine morning in Chennai and the traffic on Mount road is at its peak. The traffic constables along the strech are very busy in monitoring the morning rush and catch any violators. By noon the traffic subsided and its 'hunting' time for the constables. There was a constable named Durai, who recently got shifted to the Spencer's intersection by heavily greasing his superiors hand. He is very aggressive in his methods and will catch anyone for some ridiculous reasons just to rip some money out of them. On any given day he will make sure that he earn atleast 1000 -2000 rupees.
Durai has one little son who is very intelligent in studies. His son has been demanding a bicycle for the past few months. Since he had made high 'investments' to get into Spencers signal, he has been postponing the bicycle for his son. But now he is determined to get a new bicycle as soon as possible and gift it to his only son.
One evening Durai came to his home with a new 'BSA SLR' bicycle. His son was surprised to see the new bicyle and was very much impressed. The son also had a good news for his dad. He informed his dad that he had won the first prize in the inter-school elocution contest. The proud dad asked him, "What was the topic of your speech?". The son replied, "How to eliminate corruption in India?" Now Durai was speechless like his poor victims and felt for the gift bought using his bribes.
ps: This is not a real story. But we have many Durai among us.
