In West, give a man a fish, you only feed him for a day, but teach a man to fish, you feed him for a lifetime.

In India, give a man a fish, you only feed him for a day, next day he'll himself ask you for more fish, if you offer to teach fishing, he'll lodge a false case against https://twitter.com/RohitChan666/status/1339979284727746560
you and claim to the police that you're holding his fish with you and not giving it back to you. Court will order you to give him one fish a day pending full investigation into the matter. After tareek pe tareek over several years, judgment will finally come in your favour. You
will ask the court for cost of giving the man free fish for so many years. Court will tell you that the sum in question is out of their jurisdiction and you have to file an appeal in a higher court to get your compensation. In the higher court your case drags on for several more
years until finally, the court decides that yes, you are correctly demanding compensation from the man. Court orders him to pay. But there is a social media outcry and multiple political parties launch a street agitation opposing such a stringent penalty on a poor man. Central
govt issues an ordinance nullifying the judgment and now you are back to square 1. Indebted, broken and left in shock, you decide to fight on one last time in the Supreme Court. A few years later, while travelling to the court for one of the hearings, the road is blocked by
an agitating farm-owning community asking for more reservations, and you have to park your vehicle there itself and start walking the rest of the 5 kilometres to the Supreme Court. As you zigzag through narrow alleys, relying on a patchy 3G signal on your old BSNL sim card, you
mistakenly step foot in an uncovered manhole and are swallowed whole, and thus meet an untimely death. No worries, since your elder son is now 25 years old and will continue to fight the court case for the next decade or so...
