High-flyer brought to earth!

A request by a politico for a helicopter ride to attend an important meeting at the periphery was curtly turned down by the Big Boss, they say.  Â

The politico had explained that the proposed trip by land- a tedious one -would take long hours. “So, please give me permission to travel by air!” Â

“You all have been given good vehicles and are getting free petrol and diesel! And you want to go by air!” the Big Boss had railed.  Â

“I seldom travel by air…And he says ‘no’… as if I always ask for the facility! We must give ourselves a good beating for raising him to this high status!” the politico had later told his buddies who commiserated with him. Â
