Bric a Brac : Missing out on mudhi

APPARENTLY, when one reaches to the top, it’s not easy to eat whatever one likes. Pranab Mukherjee, the President of India, is facing such a situation as disclosed by those close to him. Pranab da is a very simple eater and he likes dishes especially from his home state West Bengal. Pranab Da is fond of mudhi (puffed rice) and especially from Bengal. It is said that the quality of mudhi from Bengal is unparallel in taste and texture. Pranab da planned to bring mudhi from Bengal but could not do so due to security reasons; it has to be checked and tested at different points. The more it is opened, the more it loses its flavour, freshness and crispness. Pranab da tried carrying mudhi several times but was informed that the rules are very clear and strict and nobody can help. Finally, Pranab da has given up!
