Birbal and the Mango Tree
Smash and Sham were in a battle as both of them claimed that they were the owner of a similar mango tree. They went to Akber for justice. Akber called Birbal and ordered him to find out the genuine proprietor of the mango tree?
Birbal stated, "There is just a single method to settle the issue. To begin with, you should take the majority of the organic product off the tree. Every one of you should take a half portion of the mangos. After that, you should chop down the tree and share the tree trunk equally. At that point, everything will be fair and reasonable.
Slam thought it was excellent and a smart choice. He agreed and happily accepted the Birbal offer. But the Sham did not agree and responded, ‘Your Respect! I have tended that tree for a long time. I cannot chop it down. Give this tree to Slam. Don't make us chop it down!’
At that point Birbal said, Sham, is the genuine proprietor of the mango tree. Only a man that has looked after the tree, can have such sentiments.”
