At a recent hearing on the matter of the National Eligibility Entrance Test, popularly known as NEET, counsels of various states and parties stood up and started making their arguments. As it became increasingly difficult to follow the different trains of reasoning, judge Anil Dave intervened. He started telling a story of Hyder Ali, founder of the Mysore kingdom and father of Tipu Sultan. Ali, he told his audience, had the ability to hear and fathom what was being said even when 40 people spoke at the same time. "None of us are like him," Dave said, bringing some laughter and then some order to the proceedings.
