The dead body of a dog was lying
in a busy rood of the city for two days.
No action was taken by the corporation official
to remove the corpse from there.
Many people passed by,
some covering their nose, others commenting
over the plight of the metro city.
***
At last, the priest of the nearly church
telephoned the concerned official and
informed him the case.
Instead of taking positive action,
the official with arrogance and authority
ridiculed the priest saying:
“Rev. Father, it is your duty to bury the dead
with required rituals, as the death has
happened within your parish.“
The priest retorted back:-
“Dear friend, there is some truth in
what you said.
But it is a traditional custom
to inform the near relatives
when a death happens.
That is why I telephoned you!……sorry “
The official stood stunned and humiliated !
