 | The Jathedar's instructions |
Jathedar Udham Singh Nagoke, the president of Shiromani Akali Dal, was dining at an at-home of S. Gian S. Rarewala, the premier of PEPSU. The food was well-laid out on the dining table, but chappatis were being served hot, straight from the tawa, as per the instructions of the host. The Jathedar would down the small rounded chappati in a single bite, and then wait for his turn, till chappatis were served to all on the table. Two three such rounds, and the Jathedar was exasperated at the dead slow pace of chappati service at the Rarewalas. He caught hold of the chef, by his arm, and gave him a piece of mind. “Listen, my boy,” he said trying to set things right, “we do not eat by numbers. We eat by piles. Come to me, when you have a six inches high pile of chappatis. Only then would I be able to have the meal properly.” Rarewala could hardly conceal his embarrassment at the Nagoke’s instructions doled out at a not so appropriate time. But then, these are the ways of Jathedars!
