37th tiatr Competition 2011 - PANCHANAMA

An accident takes place on the road – Reckless driving by a son of a rich businessman..

A girl and a cyclist (Milkman) dies on the spot. A team of police arrives at the scene to conduct panchanama (inquest).

The father of the boy bribes the PI (Police Inspector) and get the Panchanama changed i.e. The driver of the car is now the deceased girl.

Another accident, another death, a school boy this time..
The same father, once again, comes begging to save his son... PI says not to worry, he will get the Panchanama changed by phoning another PI under whose jurisdiction the accident occurred.
Bribe is higher this time as two PIs involved.

Soon, his driver comes in with bad news – PI son got killed in an accident.

The killer driver is none other than the one who was saved by the PI after changing the Panchanama.

Message:

There is another Panchanama, God’s Panchanama and no one can change it.
