This is a story of a famous footwear brand who built a world class factory on Delhi-Punjab GT road in late 1980s One day, then CM of Haryana was travelling and as luck would have it, his car broke down walking distance from the footwear factory. His PA went to the factory and requested the owner permission for CM to rest until help arrives. 🧵
The owner couldn’t believe his luck and ran to welcome the CM Sahab, touched his feet and made him sit on his own chair. After having tea, CM expressed his desire to see the modern manufacturing facility, to which the owner promptly agreed and both of them walked towards the machine shop.🧵
CM: Bhai Factory to Kafi badhiya banayi hai, koi dikkat ho to mujhe direct call karna Owner: Thank you Sir, aap Devta hain CM: 1000 jodi (pairs of shoes) to ban jati hongi ek din mein? Owner: Nahin Sir, 5000 jodi banti hain ☺️ CM: Wah. Tujhe to CM award milna chahiye. 10 Rupaye Jodi bach jaate hain? Owner: Nahin Sir, 35 se 40/- bach jate hain 🤦♂️ 🧵
CM saheb was extremely happy and in his mind, he calculated the factory’s monthly income. After gapshup, chai samosa and photos, CM Sahab left in his repaired car. A week later, the same PA arrived and had a cup of tea with the footwear owner and before leaving he told him that CM has demanded 50 lacs towards election fund.🧵
The owner was shocked and trembling with fear and anger. He did not know what hit him and how could the CM he thought as a gentleman behaved like a monster. He decided to stand against the corruption and refused to pay. PA left with a warning about consequences. The very next morning half a dozen JCBs came and dug a huge trench all 4 sides of his factory 🧵
No raw material could now enter the factory, no workers could enter and no finished goods could leave. The JCBs ensured the power cables and water pipes were destroyed too in the process. I don’t know what agreement was made between the CM and the owner of the factory but everyone in Karnal knows the story of the trench that ruined the factory 🙏
