A uniformed one in charge of a station who had taken into custody a lorry loaded with several head of cattle, had soon received a call from an influential politico owning several estates asking that the lorry with the cattle be released.
A subordinate of his who had been standing by him had asked his chief: “Who called you, Sir?”
The chief had replied with a perfunctory smile: “Urek mata kiyanawa, harak nidahas karanna kiyala! (A swine is asking me to release the cattle).
The uniformed chief had soon afterwards received an order transferring him to another station.
The shocked chief had later learnt that the politico on hearing that he had been referred to as a swine, had used his political clout to have him transferred out with immediate effect.
