The Physics of GoI

Today I overheard a wiseguy cracking jokes about the GoI, inspired by Physics. I am sharing them with you.

Newton's laws:
1. GoI, if at rest, remains at rest and if in motion, tends to go into rest unless a force is applied to keep it in motion.
2. The acceleration (if at all produced) will be directly proportional to the public support or the influence of the person applying the force, in relation to the department that has to move.
3. Every (public) reaction may be followed by an opposite action by the government which will, however, never be equal to the 'reaction'. It will always be either less or much more than the public reaction; i.e., public will never get what it wants. Also, action will always FOLLOW the reaction.

Relativity applied to GoI:
A person who has to get his file cleared at an office and the official handling his file will have totally different perceptions about the concept of 'time'. The difference will however depend on the 'connections' of the former.

Moore's law in GoI:
The number of files to be cleared from a table gets doubled every 18 months. This figure is independent of the use of technology or personnel.

Physicists worry about the number of dimensions the universe has got, its present and its future. For us, the biggest mystery is how GoI finally gets what it wants.

the wiseguy could add this too

Fleming' Left Hand Rule

When you hold the left hand straight with the forefinger and middle finger perpendicular to each other, with the thumb down, then the former indicates the direction of GoI,the latter, that of SC,CAG etc, and the thumb indicates the fate of the people of India.

That was a good one! The wiseguy appreciates it. He adds that he is not exactly sure of the angle between GoI and SC/CAG - 90 or 180. Anyways, 'the three cannot lie on the same plane'.
