Liluah - A Short Story


The sardarji and madrasi fight was getting hot. The bihari did not want the verbal duel to continue.
The madrasi shouted, "I eat rasam chawal and if I pull the chain the train will stop", pointing at the emergency rail stop chain.
The sardarji roared back,"I eat roti and rajma and if I pull the chain the train will stop also."
The bihari now had a chance to stop the fight, he realised.
Placing a hand each on madrasi's and sardarji's shoulders, he said,"I eat sathhu and I had already cut the chain in this coach. Please do not fight."
All the three had a big laugh and the train slowed to reach Howrah. It was Liluah.
