SUPARI CONTRACTS ON THE RISE IN CITY AND OUTSKIRTS
             Adikepattana, 28th Stepunder
The city and its outskirts are witnessing an alarming rise in supari contracts over the last fortnight. This can be gauged from a clandestine survey carried out by the intelligence wing of a leading city fruit and nut association which prefers to remain unnamed and unmanned.

Your favourite newspaper has not been able to see or read this report yet. But it has been able to lay its hands on a hush-hush project dossier which reveals why it is no longer possible to get good, old-fashioned, sugandha supari over the counter. In a nutshell, it points out that all stocks have been cornered by some of the big multinational supari contractors in multimillion dollar deals, for export to hidden factories in faraway countries where the supari is to be used in the production of an as yet untested, untasted supari flavoured chocolate, tentatively and temptingly called “Phrooott Hend Nutt”. This catchy name has been coined to echo the sounds made by paan and supari chewers.
