Family Planning campaign was
at its peak at that time.
Buses, Lorries, TV's , Radio's
everywhere the inverted triangle was lustering.
It was at this time I along with my family went
to our hometown to my uncle's house to spend the vacation
My uncle was a funny person trying to make wit out of everything.
I was with him all the time watching his mimics and rib-tickling
comedies.He had a big field of coconut trees which bears loads
of coconuts every year.
When I and my uncle came across a coconut tree.The person hired
for coconut plucking was narrating to my uncle that this particular
was not bearing more than two coconuts a year..
My uncle with a giggle looked at the tree and asked
'hey coconut tree ...you too did family planning??
There was a wave of laughter all around after that...
