An Analogy of India's Independence

There's a parasite sucking your blood. He's been doing this for ages. He says to you: "You have an option to kick me hard and drive me away, but since you are non-violent and won't hit me, I have another option for you". "What plan do you have?", you ask. He says: "Following are my conditions, which, if you meet, I shall stop sucking your blood.

They are:

  1. I'll amputate one of your limbs of my choice.
  2. Some of my tentacles which I've shed during my moulting process, are sticking on your body. They are my property and and you'll have to buy that from me before I leave.
  3. Since your body has become used to me, and also, I somehow feel responsible for your well being, you'll have to assure me that it functions well in my absence."


You ask: "I never asked you to leave. Why so much fuss?" He says: "I'm tired of sucking your blood. Besides, your blood has now degraded in quality."
