The Supreme Court of India is reported thusly "Raising questions on the independence of CBI, the apex court called it a 'caged parrot speaking in its master's voice'." The court making a scathing comment on the functioning of the investigating agency said, "It's a sordid saga that there are many masters and one parrot."

No longer, like never before in the past, can it be said that the people of India have comtempt for or of Court. Would this not be in in stark contrast to what some worthies who currently occupy high positions across different levels in India had or had not scribbled on the walls of this august building during the Emergency days? I have to word it like this, sorry.
Likewise, it seems that the Indian Railway's Railway Board posting scam, which appears to be more like a multi-level ponzi scheme morphed with simple extortion gone wrong, has not reached the Supreme Court's kind attention for comments as yet, so in case the voice of the mango people of India, who are travelling largely by sleeper non-aircon and general compartment because all aircon class seats are pre-booked thanks to ticketing scam, is being heard by the almighty bananas, it is suggested that these masters and their caged parrots and sundry nephews be provided food only from pantry cars of trains? Tilak Bridge Railway Station is not too far from the Supreme Court, and almost all trains heading in towards New Delhi halt there, so surplus food can be off-loaded there - a big railway colony and guest house is also nearby.
Also, it is likely that many more people from Indian Railways will now be questioned, since such a huge scam for postings at the Railway Board could not have come out of thin air from boiler shop of Jamalpur Steam Loco Workshop, near where I grew up. So it is humbly suggested that these parrots and their masters all be given board and lodging in railway wagons. Parked at the State Entry Road platforms. But guarded by RPF? There also it appears that a scam is brewing. They can be given berths under nephew quota?
But the larger issue is this - parrots have to be fed, no? As well as taught to sing. Also cuckoos. Which reminds me of a song, very relevant, called "tota maino kee kahani". Oof, this whole spelling mistake ting-ting? Anyways, here is the song, in which Shabana Azmi looks so hot, which has nothing to do with this article.

But what does have something to do with this article is the simple fact that we are glad to note that the single parrot for multiple masters concept has finally been given its rightful place in the lexicon, as we rapidly move from litchi season to mango season to silly season, a scam a week season, in the old days new movie would be released only on Fridays especially before holiday season, now all movies are failing because of this permanent scam season, and as the cuckoo wails out plaintively outside and monarch butterlies flit around looking for banana peels. This is so different from the dog listening to the gramophone symbol, going round and round, that we all grew up too.
Truth be told, most parrots that I have known and observed, seldom listen. Instead, they tend to cackle back a lot, often imitating their masters. And mistresses. And neighbours. Even wandering minstrels and courier type people who ring the bell. On one ship we were on, the parrot could even imitate the ship's cat. One day, after an eclipse, the cat learnt how to open the parrot's cage, stupid parrot, too scared to fly out, satisfied looking cat after that. Chomp chomp.
Lords and Ladies, my humble submission here is that the role of the parrot, caged or otherwise, should not be ridiculed. Nor should the parrots be demoralised. After all, as far as the Railway scam is concerned, there is always this song to think about, which pretty much spells it out.

Instead, we simply need many more parrots, preferably flying free. Release our parrots today. Otherwise the cats will get it. Thank you and humbly submitted.
