Who is running the Govt?

A contractor promised minister that he would bribe sumptuously if the contract is approved. Believing him minister wrote on the file ” Approved

Even after two days the bribe money was not given. Minister felt cheated. Minister’s peon said “no problem sir I will bring the file & you write “Not” before “Approved” So it became
Not Approved

Two days later the contractor bribed him as per the contract. Minister was worried as to what to do now ? The peon again came to the rescue and brought the file back and said write “e” in front of “Not” which ultimately became
Note Approved

Minister happy & Contractor happy. So now who is running the government?

PEON
