Partly Facetious : 'All Politicians in Confinement'

"The Khan has directed his team of merry men and women to reduce the price of roti and naan."
Published August 1, 2019

"The Khan has directed his team of merry men and women to reduce the price of roti and naan."
"Did he say reduce or restore to the pre-gas price increase rates?"
"You say potato, I say potaaato."
"You use so many a's and you may have some problems."
"I don't know of any political leader who may be a serious threat to the Khan administration and whose name begins with an A."
"There is the APC - All Parties Conference - which courtesy Prime Minister Imran Khan means All Politicians in Confinement..."
"Don't be facetious. Besides you know that all the opposition's men and women combined are not going to de-seat the government...by the way all ye women be thankful cause unlike The Khan's jalsas if The Maulana is leading the march there would be no women and they can all stay home and be dry and..."
"Now who is being facetious?"
"Sorry! Anyway there is no fun if there is no muscle flexing in politics...."
"So tell me how will the price of roti/naan revert to what it was before? Would The Khan direct a sasti roti scheme..."
"How silly of you, his scheme will be called Ehsaas scheme..."
"Right, but whatever the scheme is called it means subsidies and the Fund is not gonna like that."
"Let's see."
