S. Partap S. Kairon, the chief minister of Punjab, was moving on a highway with his entourage. While his car was negotiating a curve, a hare tried to cross the road and mid-way decided against it, but by that time it was run over by the car. The chief minister asked the driver to stop. The rest of the cars also came to a grinding halt. As his officers and secretaries drew near to know what had happened, Kairon had a question, ready for them. “Tell me,” he enquired, “How did the hare die?” “Sir it was run over by the car,” said one. “Don’t state the obvious,” Kairon shot back. “Sir, it chose the wrong time to cross the road,” said another. “Sir, may be the hare was trifle too slow to cross the road in time,” echoed the third . “None of you could reach the heart of the matter,” said a not-so-amused Kairon. “The hare died in a dilemma,” he said sagely. “Young men, while in the middle of the road, the hare decided to turn back and got crushed. Never be in a dilemma. If you decide to do something, do it right way or else stay away from it.” Such were the ingenious methods, Kairon employed to tutor his subordinates.
