Birbal's wit


At the end of Akbar’s Durbar, a pandit came to the court & said he wanted to question him. Akbar was tired & told Birbal: “Please answer the pandit’s questions fast. I want to end this Durbar.”

The pandit said: “I’ll give you a choice. You can either answer one difficult or a hundred easy ones.”

Birbal saw Akbar would have no patience to sit through a hundred questions and opted for one difficult one.

Pandit: “Which one came first, the hen or the egg.”

Birbal: “the hen, of course!”

Pandit: “How can you be so sure?”

Birbal: “I am sorry, that is your second question. I agreed to answer only one!”

"If you want to trap somebody, ensure you close all the exit routes but don’t get trapped yourself! Or else you may become an unexpected victim".
