- You have eighteen bends-octagons

- Raja Singh knew very well that if big changes or plans do not bring innovation, then the work should be done in the jungle even after changing the name.

'Hail to Maharaja Singh!' Bearbhai, Raja Singh's personal advisor, came and said: 'There are reports from foreign jungles that old problems like unemployment, poverty, hunger, violence, VIP culture etc. are getting worse in our forest.'

'... But why are so many problems still in the forest?' The lion yawned.

'When you took charge of the forest, you said to remove all these problems, but after the plans were launched...' Singh quipped, interrupting Bearbhai's briefing: 'You talk too long these days. In short!'

Bearbhai understood what the king wanted to hear, 'The plans are going well, but something else has to be done. The problem is many and you are so busy that despite launching schemes upon schemes we are not able to meet them.'

'If Bhai! I have a lot of work to do, but I don't get time. If the plans are implemented properly, the responsibility of election campaign will come. If I am free from it, I will travel to foreign forests. After that, it is time for radio programs and monthly photoshoots. When will I solve all these problems?'

'You are right, my lord! Instead of waiting for the plan to solve the problems permanently, we should think of something else' Bearbhai mumbled: 'One more plan, but it should be one that solves all the problems!'

'Do you have any such plans in mind?' Singh was now interested in the matter. He gestured Bearbhai to sit down with some respect.

'I am sharing the instant thought that came to me...' Something flashed in Bearbhai's mind. Noting Singh's expression, he continued, 'When you give entertaining speeches, gradually add new words to them, it may have long-term effects. Let the jungle dwellers begin to believe that everything has changed since your rule in our forest!'

'Wow... I didn't do anything wrong by making you a political consultant. You always live up to my expectations. very nice There can be no better solution than this!' King Singh got up and approached the bear and patted its back and said again: 'Well done bear well done!'

He remembered this incident before a program that happened a few years after Maharaja Singh came to power. Thus, Maharaj Singh had earlier given slogans like 'New Jungle', 'New Generation', 'New Era', but a large group of jungle dwellers, known as the Middle Class, had to give Raja Singh something new before a program. I thought a lot but could not find any word that rhymes with 'new' for middle class. It was speech time.

Maharaja Singh began the speech: 'Friends! I am working day and night for all of you. So you don't have to pay tax, I changed the whole tax system.... Friends! Earlier, tax had to be paid once a year. That used to empty your pockets all at once, but I tried to empty your pockets little by little every day and every day, I introduced a new system of levying taxes on every commodity...'

The lion supporters applauded the king's words with clapping of paws. After a long pause, Raja Singh continued, 'Because of all my efforts, your group is no longer middle class today.'

'You are absolutely right, Maharaja! Today the middle class has become poor!' Someone in the audience shouted loudly. The security officials caught him in a matter of seconds and took him out. After a deep breath Singh's speech continued: 'Today... a new class has arisen in the jungle. Which is called - New Middle Class.'

Supporters including Bhakta Shiromani Ghetabhai Ghasfoosiya, Kagdo Kankasio, Holaji Hathila, Bakulesh Balad raised slogans like 'New Middle Class... New Middle Class'. With that Maharaja Singh's speech ended.

The opposition did not particularly like this slogan. Chief Minister Kachbabhai Kakalatia quipped on Twitter: 'Singhsar! Give the slogan New Poverty Away!'

Retweeting Kachbabhai's tweet, opposition leader Sasalabhai wrote: 'No wonder if Singhji gives names like New Unemployment, New Hunger soon!'

But the tweet that went viral from a Twitter account running a strange username tagging Raja Singh was something like: 'Raja Singh! Your 'new' word slogans are so wonderful that jungle dwellers should take inspiration from them and come up with a new slogan - New Raja!'

The forest government started efforts to shut down this Twitter account...
