The Question of Believe

Info

There lived a wise man Tarun Patel, as people called him, was from the dynasty of wisest people of the village. He lived in a house which sat on crest of a small hill in the entire valley. One could see the entire village from his house. When he spoke, people listened to him. And so he chose his words and actions carefully. Everyone thought that Abhinav Mishra was good and respectful citizen. He was of forty eight and richest person in the village. He lived with a housekeeper who was always worried about his health. In fact, he was usually very well and happy except few attacks of hay fever in summer. He was an industrialist and was successful enough to keep five hundred plus workers in his factory. Yes, Abhinav Mishra was good and respectable, but not completely honest.
He was a smuggler and had a huge business of drugs and other illegal weapons. He had relations with many international criminals. Above all Tarun knew all about him and used to advice people not to talk with him and avoid Abhinav.
The sun was perpendicular to the earth and I was going to attend Holi Festival. After the ceremony, in public meeting Abhinav declared to give everyone a handsome amount of money if they work for him. Many people went to Tarun in order to ask for advice while some of them who were well settled directly went to Abhinav. They desired to have more money. Tarun advised people not to believe Abhinav as he was engaged in many criminal cases. More then half of village in order to find job and better livelihood went to him beside many warnings of Tarun.
Many of them were illiterate, they didn't know what is drug and did what Abhinav ordered. A month passed he didn't paid them what he promised but because of unemployment and illiteracy they worked for him.
The police got information about the illegal supply of drugs and harmful weapons. They arrived at the village, caught all the employers and employees. Tarun was standing by the window in his house and watched whole drama. Now other people went to him and thanked for his advice.
Sometimes, people loss their thinking power and do what their lust want. People don't realise it's harmful impacts. Tarun Patel was a  man instead of his warnings people went and worked illegally because of greed of money and faced problem of jail.
