All over the lunch table

Just sharing the incident happened over lunch table at cafeteria today. Prateek was talking about something interesting as usual and we were enjoying the talk, these days election campaign is on the heights so TV Screens with news channel was showing people of Gandhi family of Indian National Congress. Prateek remembered that he used to tease one of his Sikh friend by saying that Gandhi family has some issue with Sikhs, he quoted the riots in Punjab was a result of decision taken by Indira Gandhi. And later on he continued saying that he used to say to sardar that because of this people from Gandhi family have lost their life. He added more by saying that Sonia to be on safe side has given a chance to Sikh by appointment of Prime Minister from India.
He was simply saying the points he might have put in front of his sardar friend just to make him respond back a good laughing session was going on, all of sudden we got attracted by the TV Screen where news channel was showing a journalist throwing show on Home Minister P. Chidambaram. It moved our discussion from the issue and we actually started discussing why journalist can hit on the target, Bush remained unbeaten by them and so is the home minister. We were discussing to develop software for journalists so that they can simulate the hit before actually trying it. After having more such funny discussion all were quietly having nice lunch. Suddenly Prateek started laughing again and in his laugh he passed the message that journalist was sardar and was asking some question about the riots only. Now Prateek left his food and started asking us to finish it fast, normally he is the last person to finish his part at lunch, he was eager to go to his desk today … you all can guess why??


Sometime back his sardar was online and he wanted to tease him again with the issue :)
