Young vs Old... Rahul vs Advani

Today I was watching a discussion on NDTV's Big Fight about "Are young politicians better than old". After, about repeatedly bashing just one young politician Varun Gandhi for his alleged hate speech, finally some sense prevailed on them and they started discussing about other issues of concern. To end this discussion and to prevail some sense of intelligence on my fellow Indian ....

....... here is a story that was once told to me by a wise man and one of my dear friend's father. Some Rahul Gandhi was in love with a young girl, Kala, whose parents would approve of there marriage only when he pass there test. So, with all enthusiasm and fresh knowledge and with no experience of what was coming his way he accepted it. Kala's parents asked him to come with all the young of the family and his friends for the marriage and that there should be no person older than his age. He was all charged and happy that such a easy test that he will pass without any efforts. 
He preared for huge fun and fare and band-baja with grand procession and reached Kala's home. On reaching there he was surprised that this was just the eligibility for taking the test and the test is yet to begin. He pondered what now, when Kala's father asked all of them to sit in a round table. Then he asked him that all of you will be given a jaggery  block each (picture on the side) and each one of you have to finish it. If anyone fails then Rahul can not marry his daughter. On being given this mammoth task they all looked at each other in shock and dismay. Rahul told Kala's parents this is impossible and that they asked us to do it just to make fun of us and cancel the marriage. 

Disappointed with this and eager to marry, he quickly SMS his teacher Dr. Manmohan Singh for a solution, Dr. replied back and asked him to say that the minorities has the first right on the resources so you will make them eat first and eat only the ones thats left. 
Kala's parents rejected the idea and gave him one more chance. So, Rahul messaged his another teacher P. Chidambrum and ask for the solution. Mr. Chidumbrum replied blame everything on global jaggery meltdown and low demand, so he asked even the bride's guest to eat the jaggery with them to balance demand and supply. Bemused by the idea Kala's parents gave him a final do or die chance. One of his friends watching all this and knowing that no else could provide a solution to this problem SMS L.K. Advani, he replied back Jyotiraditya beta ask the parents that they all will eat one block at a time which will be distributed in equal measures among them. Rahul told this to Kala's father, who knowing that this is the right solution let Rahul marry his daughter.  Standing far from the pedestal Sachin, Jyotiraditya and other Rahul's friends watching it wondered why can't they go on a discovery of India journey and find such a beautiful wife themselves.
