"indian Emergency" joke

This happened during the Emergency imposed by Mrs. Indira Gandhi in 1975. Bapu Gandhi, up in heaven, was troubled by the thought that after all he had done for his country, no one even remembered his name. He sent for Jawahar Lai Nehru and said "Nehru beta, you ruled the country for many years. What did you do to perpetuate the memory of your Bapu Gandhi?"
"Bapu, I did everything I could. I had a samadhi built on the spot where we cremated your body. On your birthdays and death anniversaries we gathered at the samadhi, sang Ram Dhun and Vaishnav Jan. What more could I do?"
"Who came after you?" asked Bapu.
"I am told Lai Bahadur became Prime Minister after me," replied Nehru.
So Bapu Gandhi sent for Lai Bahadur and put him the same question. Shastri replied: "Bapu, I had a very short time as Prime Minister - only one and a half year, but I had your statues put up in every town and village. I had all your speeches published in all languages and distributed free. What more could I have done?"
"Who came after you?" asked Bapu.
"It's Nehru's chhokree, Indira. She is now ruling India."
So Bapu sent for Indira Gandhi, who had just imposed Emergency on the country and put the same question to her. Indira Gandhi replied: "I have done more to perpetuate your memory than either Shastri or my father. I have made the entire country like you. I have left the people nothing more than their langotis and a staff like you have."
Bapu was horrified. "Beti, this is very wrong. The people will rise against you for depriving them of everything."
"Not to worry, Bapu," replied Indira. "I have taken care of that. I have put the langoti in their hands and put the danda up their bottoms."
