Mysterious fires and misplacement are causing loss of files in many government departments. As a result, progress is being hampered. We’re starting our relief efforts with the Coal Ministry, which has been hit particularly hard. The magic of computers could make such losses a thing of the past, as files will then have multiple copies, easily duplicated without running them through the fax machine. The Income Tax Department has made significant strides in computerisation, but due to jealousy, they are not sharing this expertise. In addition, due to free distribution of coal, the Coal Ministry has limited funds.
Citizens, donate lavishly to our ‘Help Your Gorment’ scheme, and we will purchase computers with advanced Pentium processors for the Ministry. Send your name, address and bank account details to helpyourgorment@gmail.com . Please note: Donation to this fund will not entitle the donor any preference in future coal block allocation.
The Investigator is a fortnightly round-up of all things droll and newsy. Views are personal. Really personal.
