A little boy wanted Rs. 500 very badly and prayed for weeks, but nothing happened.
Finally , he decided to write a letter to GOD requesting the Rs. 500. When the postal authorities received the letter addressed to " God , India ", they decided to forward it to the Finance Minister of India as a joke.
The Finance Minister was so amused, that he instructed his secretary to send the little boy Rs.200. The Finance Minister thought this would appear to be a lot of money to a little boy, and he did not want to spoil the kid.
The little boy was delighted with Rs.200, and decided to write a thanking reply note to God, which reads:
"Dear God: Thank you very much for sending the money. However, I noticed that you sent it through the Finance Ministry in New Delhi, and those donkeys deducted Rs. 300 as tax's!"
