DRIVING the train ------------------------- A train suddenly deviated from the tracks and ran onto the nearby fields before returning on the tracks again. The passengers were horrified at this. At the next railway station, the driver was caught and questioned. He was a sardar and explained that a man was standing on the tracks and he refused to budge. The authorities asked him, "Sardarji, are you mad? Just to save one person, you put so many lives in danger. You should have overrun that person." The sardar replied: "Exactly, that is what I was doing, but this idiot started running towards the field when the train came very close." KIDNAPPING by a Sardar --------------------------------- Once upon a time, there was a Sardarji who was down on his luck. So, In order to raise some money he decided to kidnap a kid and hold him for ransom. He went to the playground, grabbed a kid, took him behind a tree and told him, "I've kidnapped you." Sardarji then wrote a note saying: "I've kidnapped your kid. Tomorrow morning, put Rs.2, 00,000 in a paper bag and put it beneath the mango tree on the north side of the city playground". Signed: "A Sardarji" Sardarji then pinned the note to the kid's shirt and sent him home to show it to his parents. The next morning the Sardarji checked, and sure enough a paper bag was kept beneath the mango tree. The boy was sitting next to the bag. Sardarji opened up the bag and found the Rs.2, 00,000 in cash with a note saying: "How can a sardarji do this to a fellow Sardarji? Take the money, and please leave my son." Signed: Another Sardarji
