Akbar the “Great” killed himself when he tried to poison & murder Raja Man Singh of Amber, his own mentor & the Rajput Hindu king who helped establish his Empire. Manucci tells us that it was Akbar's habit to treacherously assassinate nobles in his court by feeding them poisoned Paans. Akbar used to put Majun - an edible intoxicating preparation made with honey, dates, nuts, spices, cannabis/hashish & sometimes opium wrapped inside Paan leaves. He purposely kept identical harmless & poisoned paans in his ornate Paandaan box, & would secretly switch the identical looking poisonous Paan after offering it to the victims. One day Akbar decided to poison Raja Man Singh because he was pressuring Akbar to let his nephew Khusro inherit the throne instead of Salim (Jahangir. But Akbar accidentally forgot to switch the Paans & mistakenly ate the Paan with the poisoned Majun himself. Karma served Akbar his last paan.

@law_ninja I agree that CA firms need better workflow management systems, softwares and tools however the way the 31st March pressure or all other things are described, it’s as if everyone is running ram bharose!! It’s not like that, everyone uses some or the other tool / tracker etc!
