EVEN BEYOND RAMAYANA,THE TRADITION STILL GOES ON.THE RULE MOVES ACCORDING TO THE WISHES OF RULLER.
Fierce battle had been going on between Meghnath (The son of Ravana and the great warrior)and Laxmana.There had been volley of inflammable arrows being shot from either sides but the war continued.while Meghnath tried his all tricks to overpower Laxmana but Laxmana defended and evaded them to continue the battle.Ultimately Meghnath used the most powerful and deadly weapon Brhamastra against Laxmana and Laxmana was seriously injured and fell unconscious being unable to evade the Brhamastra.The doctor brothers Ashwani were called from the heaven to treat Laxmana but after examining him, they both opined that the condition of Laxmana was very critical and would survive maximum upto 24 hours unless he was administered the juices of panacea leaves of Vishwallykarani tree available only on Vindhyachal parvat or mountain which was far far of from that place.Lord Rama ordered Hanuman to bring those leaves immediately.Hanuman left immediately,reached vindhyachal parvat but could not locate the Vishwallykarani tree.....let alone the panacea leaves.So he uprooted the entire mountain and brought it to a place near Rameshwaram where the treatment of Laxmana was going on.The tree was spotted out and the juice of panacea leaves was given to Laxmana and thus his life was saved.Now the time came for Hanuman to claim his tour expenses.so he submitted the tour programme and the relevant tour expenses mentioning clearly that he had to undertake the journey immediately at the instruction of Lord Rama and therefore he could not get his tour programme approved before hand due to exigencies and sent the bill to Ajodhya for sanction.The processing officer in the H R department was not happy with Hanuman for some reasons.So he declined the proposal on grounds of1)The tour programme was approved reportedly at the instruction of Rama but Sri Bharatha is the king who has not consented it and hence irregular 2)Hanuman being a scale one officer is not entitled to go by air and hence airfare is beyond his eligibility 3)Hanuman as a scale one officer failed to locate the panacea leaves and instead brought the entire mountain causing huge expenses to the exchequer,if sanctioned, for bringing goods in excess of the normal limit and exhibited gross negligence in carrying out his assigned official duties. Accordingly the bill was returned unpaid along with a memorandum addressed to Hanuman seeking his explanation as to why suitable disciplinary action was not to be taken against Hanuman for deriliction of duties.Hanuman was very upset and approached Lord Rama but Lord Rama declined to interfere in such tiny matters.Hence Hanuman approached Laxmana who became furious and asked Hanuman"I want the telephone number of regional Head"The number was provided and suitable instructions were conveyed.Next day the the said processing officer was transferred out of the department and a new officer was placed in his place.He again processed the bill and overruled the objections as1)Though king Bharatha was ruling the kingdom but he was so doing the same thing as a representative of Lord Rama.And Hence both Lord Rama and Bharatha were entitled to approve tour programme.Lord Rama was entitled as king or principal and Bharatha on the strength of power of attorney as agent.2) It is a fact that Hanuman being a scale one officer was not entitled to go by air but because of the dire emergency and exigency Hanuman had to resort to air travel and such travel had the implicit approval of Lord Rama and as an exception,the air fare should be sanctioned considering the importance of the task assigned to him
3)Hanuman though a scale one officer but was not exposed to any training and as such it was quite natural for him to fail to identify the panacea leaves.He did a yeoman's job by bringing the entire mountain which not only helped to save the life of Laxmana but saved the exchequer from huge Expenditure for multiple visits in case the same would not have been brought.
Hence the entire bill was sanctioned,the memorandum was withdrawn and he was given incentive of Rs.5000/ for his outstanding work
