Realizing Wrong Habit

Akbar was quite disturbed and tensed about his son’s bad habit of sucking his own thumb. He tried a lot to cure this habit, but nothing worked. So he summoned a saint in his courtroom for help. After listening to the problem, the saint told that he would come after a few days with a solution and left. This behavior of the saint made Akbar angry but after few days when the saint came back, he simply explained the boy about the consequences of his bad habit and the boy promised never to do it again. Angry Akbar and other courtiers decided to punish the saint for his past behavior but like always Birbal explained the bigger lesson in it.
