Politico told: Shut up and eat
View(s):The event was last month but the story is doing the rounds now. It was the official dinner for visiting Afghan leader Hameed Karzai.
The dinner was under way. Suddenly one politico, known for his many antics, thought it was boring to remain seated and nibble food that was served.
So, he rose from his seat, walked up to a senior official and began a conversation.
The embarrassed official was to advise him to return to his seat immediately since this was a formal dinner and the host, the President of Sri Lanka, would not be pleased with his conduct. He hurriedly returned to his seat.
