 AgustaWestland debate : Manohar Parrikar's magical bamboo was too much for Congress members


New Delhi . Defence Minister Manohar Parirrikar, replying  the debate on AgustaWestland scam, narrated a story of Emperor Akbar and his trouble shooter Birbal . The story hit congress members' raw nerve.
"I remembered a story which I had read in my childhood of Badshah Akbar and Birbal. One day it happened that a golden spoon was stolen from Badshah's mahal (palace). He didn't want it to be given for criminal investigation at that time because that would put him in a very embarrassing situation. So he called Birbal and told him that someone has stolen a golden spoon from his cutlery. What do I do? 

Birbal told him, 'I will find out the solution. Get all the servants.' He called all the servants and gave them one feet long piece of bamboo and told them that it was a magic bamboo. He told them to take it home, जिसने चोरी की होगी उसका बम्बू चार इंच बढ़ जाएगा ( thief's bamboo will increase by four inches). He told them that it was a magical bamboo piece. Everyone believed Birbal and they went home. The one who had stolen the golden spoon, was a worried man. He could not sleep up to 2 o' clock. Then he suddenly got an idea. He got up at 2 o' clock, brought a knife and cut his bamboo by four inches, expecting it to grow by twelve inches the next day morning. Next day morning, of course, he got caught. "

Pointing towards congress members he quipped , "What I find in their argument is that they have cut all their bamboos by four inches." 
And at the end of his reply Parrikar said, "किसका 4 इंच का बम्बू कट गया, वह समझ गया।" (the thief who cut his bamboo by 4 inches understood the story )
Congress member shouted - What did he say? ..(Interruptions).. What has he said? ..(Interruptions)..This is too much. ..(Interruptions)..
