Vaisakhi List Page #7

---

- Let me finish.

Government has pardoned

Tarseen and your prison term.

You two are going to being

released at the Vaisakhi function.

Damn..!

Didn't l tell you that it will

make the ground below your feet move?

This has been possible

because of Jailer..

..Jolawar Singh Johal's

personal pursuit.

Now you tell me,

what were you saying?

Now what do l say, sir?

Now if l say it,

the ground below your feet will move.

l am so happy that my feet

aren't touching the ground.

How much more do

l have to lift my feet?

Tell me whatever you want to say.

Sir, l have already

escaped from the prison.

Oh no.

When?

From where?

l mean how did you escape?

Sir, Tarseen has dug a tunnel.

And we managed to escape.

Tarseen is with you?

Yes. He won't dig a

tunnel only for me, will he?

You ruined everything l did.

Sir, if you knew that

we were being released..

..then you should have informed us.

l wanted to give you both a surprise.

l didn't know that you

two would shock me instead.

This is like a girl eloping with

the guy she was supposed to marry.

Read the Vaisakhi List

printed in today's newspaper.

The news of your release

my great deed is printed on it.

Now l will surely be felicitated.

Sorry, sir.

Sorry? l know how l showed them

that you two have a good behavior..

..and got your prison term pardoned.

This is as if the child came out before

the midwife could show her moves

Your eagerness has doomed me.

The seven-months ones

couldn't wait for nine months..

They freed themselves before time.

Sir, now tell me what should l do.

Listen..

You are going to being released at

the Vaisakhi function in the evening.

l want you back in the

prison before that, at any cost.

Sir, we don't have the

prisoners' uniform either.

You don't have a uniform.

l won't be left with one.

For God's sake come

in whatever state you can.

You can even come in your knickers

What are you saying, sir?

You are reacting as if l've asked

you to come without your knickers on.

There are anyway 8-10 black knickers

gang's members in this prison.

Two more won't make a difference.

Okay, sir. l am coming,

What do you mean by "l"?

Bring Tarseen with you.

You can call him up and tell him.

l am not getting my son married

that l'll invite everyone personally.

You will get him with you.

Sir, he is not with me.

l left him in his village.

l don't know where he must

have gone with his son by now.

Oh God.

They are going on holidays

with their children.

Here l will have to

go on a permanent holiday.

Sir.. if we cannot find him, at

least let me get released with honor..

Why are you stopping me? -Very good.

The stain on the uniform will be the

same whether one prisoner escapes or two.

Get this straight..

lf l get into trouble then

l won't let you get released either.

lf you want to come back to prison..

Then you'll have

to come back with him.

Jarnail.. What happened?

Why do you look so sad?

Vaisakhi List. On the occasion

of Vaisakhi government has.

This is what l was thinking about!

For how long will we keep hiding!

You ran away from prison for me.

l respect you even more Jarnail.

But l wanted you to

be released with honor.

- With honor.

- l guess God heard you

But what will we do now?

What else. l'll have to

go back to prison on time.

That too with Tarseen.

Jai Hind, sir. -Jai Hind, sir.

l have asked all the prisoners

to applaud in your honor.

Now they will applaud

when l will be humiliated.

They should applaud whether

in honor or in humiliation.

Humiliated? What do you mean?

- For God's sake, don't..

- Jai Hind, sir.

Sir, l think Jarnail and

Tarseen ran away from the prison.

You don't have to think. lt is true.

They have really escaped

No, sir. Prisoners cannot escape.

We have such tight security.

Our security is tight?

When our neighbors bang

their head to the wall we yell..

"Keep it low, we can hear it."

They dug a tunnel right

under your nose and left..

..but you all didn't even realize it.

They dug a tunnel in the prison?

Then what,

should they have dug it on your house?

That's strange.

We didn't even come to know about it.

No, sir. l heard strange noises.

But l thought it is due to the

new earthquakes that we are having.

We will face an earthquake now.

That too in all our lives.

On lndra Richter Scale.

Sir, what will we do now?

What can we do, Tulsidas?

They have done what they had to do.

Now you should prepare to

remove your uniforms and sit at home.

lf you want to do something

then keep your mouth shut.

No one should know that they ran away.

Sir, what do l do about what l told

to the prisoners about applauding?

You are still thinking about applauds!

Stop them.

They cannot be stopped

l have cussed them..

l asked you to use police fear.

Sir, if everyone feared the police..

..then these two prisoners

wouldn't have escaped.

We had to cuss them. - Back off!

Bhuggu!

Tarseen?

You still haven't left?

Bhuggu, look at this.

Chandigarh, 13thApril,

this time Punjab Government..

..has decided to pardon the

remaining term of those prisoners..

..who have been arrested for petit,

insignificant crimes

As per these orders, two prisoners

from Bussi Pathana police station..

..Jarnail Singh, son of Mr.

Gurbax Singh and.

..Tarseen Lal, son of Bhairav

Lal will be released today.

My son has started reading!

l went to prison for 18 months

and my son learnt to read Punjabi.

l'll happily spend the

rest of my life in prison..

You should become a Doctor.

Tarseen, only we know..

..how we took care of this

tearful child after you were arrested.

Hence, we tried to keep him detached

from you so that he doesn't suffer.

Don't misunderstand us

Coming!

Son, l'll be right back.

Daddy, l love you a lot.

Sir, all the other

prisoners are asking about..

..Jarnail and Tarseen's whereabouts.

Tulsidas, such words

always add insult to injury.

Anyway, forget about it.

Tell me, did you find out

where did they dig a tunnel?

No. - Then find out.

Okay, sir.

Bahadur Singh. -Yes, sir?

We will go and tell the prisoners..

..that Tarseen and Jarnail

are getting released today.

Hence they are busy

doing the paperwork.

Okay. JJ sir?

l am not as smart as you are.

But if you permit,

can l say something smart?

Tell me.

The problem is that

we want both the prisoners..

..two show up doing

the Vaisakhi function?

They will be here. - How?

We will postpone the

function for two days.

Now are you even greater

than the Nanak Shahi Calendar?

Dimwit, Vaisakhi is usually

celebrated on 13thApril.

This isn't like Navratras that

if you are unwell on the first day..

..then you can fast on the ninth day.

Sir, l told you l am

not as smart as you are.

Then why do you mess with me?

Let's go. - Sir.

Hello, sir. -Okay.

Sir! Sir! Sir!

You didn't recognize me.

Recognize you? Do l owe you anything?

Try to put some pressure.

Pressure? Am l sitting in a toilet?

Not down there,
