People are growing brinjals, chillies and tomatoes in gunny bags filled with mud and fertilizers and rapidly getting featured in family magazines. Fingering dirt and manure will not suit our diabetic condition, mutter my friends. They are professors and bankers. They could not see themselves digging in the dirt. What about politics, I ask them.
Professors have been know to have taken up politics.
A professor of economics can aspire to become the finance minister. One day he can present the budget and get photographed. My friend laugh off my sincere suggestions. Politics can be very dirty, we do not want to become avaricious criminals, they tell me with complacent scowls. Then go and see a godman or a godwoman, I tell them.
