Indian Cow :)

This is a true essay written by a ***** candidate at the UPSC(IAS) {Indian Administrative Services} Examinations. The candidate has written an essay on the Indian cow:


Indian Cow

He is the cow. The cow is a successful animal. Also is 4 footed , and because he is female, he give milks ( but will do so when he is got child.)
He is same like-God, sacred to Hindus and useful to man. But he has got four legs together. Two are forward and two after afterwards. His whole body can be utilised for use. More so the milk. Milk comes from 4 taps attached to his basement.(horses don’t have any such attachment)
What can it do? Various ghee, butter, cream, curd, why and the condensed milk and so forth.

Also he is useful to cobbler, watermans and mankind generally. His motion is slow only because he is of lazy species., Also his other motion….gober is much useful to trees, plants as well a s for making flat cakes (like pizza) in hand, and drying in the sun.

Cow is the only animal that extricates his feeding after eating. Then afterwards she chew with his teeth whom are situated in the inside of the mouth. He is incessantly in the meadows in the grass. His only attacking and defending organ is the horns, specially so when he is got child. This is done by knowing his head whereby he causes the weapons to be paralleled to the ground of the earth and instantly proceed with great velocity forwards. He has got tails also, situated in the backyard , but not like similar animals.

It has hairs on the other end of the other side. This is done to frighten away the flies which alight on his cohesive body,hereupon he gives hit with it. The palms of his feet are soft unto the touch. So the grasses is not crushed. At night time have poses by looking down on the ground and he shouts. His eyes and nose are like his other relatives.
This is the cow……….

LOL Phantom

I know the ***** s you mentioned stands for

Rumors have it that for the next examination the essay asked was about mountains. Our poor chap knew only the above essay. So he wrote…

There is a big mountain near my house. Near the mountain there is a tree. Under the tree there is a cow.

He is the cow. The cow is a successful animal. Also is 4 footed , and because he is female, he give milks ( but will do so when he is got child.)
He is same like-God, sacred to Hindus and useful to man. But he has got four legs together. Two are forward and two after afterwards. His whole body can be utilised for use. More so the milk. Milk comes from 4 taps attached to his basement.(horses don’t have any such attachment)………………………………………………… ……………………………………………………………………………… ……………………………………………………………………………… ……………………………………………………………………………… ……………………………………………………………………………… …………………

Hm-m-m ... could this be an "urban legend" - like alligators in the sewers in New York City and the poodle that exploded when its owner put it in the mircrowave to dry it after giving it a bath? Does India have "urban legends"? It MUST!

most likely an urban legend. India has lots of urban legends but it's mostly on the dark side which just about leads to riots/mobs <seriously deadpan>

Some seriously warped ones which you're likely to hear and patently false

a) muslims bursting firecrackers when Pakistan wind cricket matches against India
b) Pakistani flags raised in Hyderabad (any green flag on the minaret of a mosque will do)

and a whole bunch of wierd ones about politicians, saints and gurus.

Get close to an average Indian and these urban legends are squeezed out like termites out of the woodwork.

Sad, really.
