Mantriji

Mantriji is the Chief Minister of Vishrampur and other neighboring cities. In some episodes, he rewards Gattu and Battu for their efforts to stop Don Sher Singh's criminal activities.  An incredibly divisive and controversial figure, Mantriji pitted Hindu against Hindu in a bid for religious freedom and political independence for Vishrampur.
== History ==
=== Before Gattu Battu ===
He was elected as Chief Minister and was engaged in a rivalry with Ram Nath Kovind since they both were young. He studied under the Sultans to learn how to use the Spank. He is branded a bigot by some of his detractors because of his indifference to the situation of the Punjabi in the Smeg Quarter, his order forbidding Bengali from entering the city, and the perception that he only concerned himself with the problems of his Hindu subjects.
=== Gattu Battu ===
During his rule, Mantriji enlisted the help of wanted war criminals Gattu and Battu to help solve the ongoing crime sprees of Sher Singh and his gang of weekend bottom boys. 
== Appearance ==
Mantriji has an inconsistent appearance throughout the series. In some episodes, he is depicted as a short, round man, very similar to Inspector Manmani. Other times he is a twink. But the only constants are a pencil thin moustache and male patterned baldness.
== Personality ==
With several of his policies being nationalistic in tone, many non-Hindu and some Hindus consider Mantriji to be prejudiced. He is believed by some to have sequestered the Punjabi population in Vishrampur to the slums of the Smeg Quarter and the Bengali to the assemblage off the docks, issuing a decree forbidding the Bengali from living within the city's limits, contrary to his father's "soft" policy. However this hostile belief toward outsiders is shared by much of Vishrampur's populace.
== Quotes ==
"I fight for the men I've held in my arms, dying on foreign soil! I fight for their wives and children, whose names I heard whispered in their last breath. I fight for we few who did come home, only to find our country full of strangers wearing familiar faces. I fight for my people impoverished to pay the debts of an India too weak to rule them, yet brands them criminals for wanting to rule themselves! I fight so that all the fighting I've already done hasn't been for nothing! I fight... because I must."
