    Akbar was a brave Mughal king.He ruled over india for many years.In summer,he used to stay at the "Attock fort"on the bank of the Indus River.In those days there was no bridge on the bridge and peoples cross the river with the help of boats.But the trade route was not safe.Trade caravans were often robbed of their merchandise and money by robbers and dacoits.There were armed gangs of these daciots and robbers.In other words the dacoits ruled over this Area.Akbar was greatly worried about the cruel activities of these outlaws.A notorious dacoits was the chief of these robbers.His name was kaloo.Peoples come crying to Akbar and sought his help. They appealed to him again and again to save their lives and properties from robbers. Kallo and his men were very cruel,They killed those mercilessly who showed resistance,but despite these cruelties,Kaloo had the quality of helping the poor,widows and orphans.

 

    Akbar had two clowns in his court,Birbal and Mullah Duplaza.One day akbar was sitting in his court pondering how to check the activities of kaloo and his gangs.He announced a prize of Rs Lac for the killer or arrester of kaloo.Mullah Duplaza also came to the cour sat silently.He noticed that the king looked sad and gloomy.He went to the king and said,"sir don,t worry,i will bring this notorious dacoit to you alive".Then he whispered something in his ear.The king smiled and said,"o.k.go ahead with you plan.All my courtiers will act upon your instructions".

     According to the plan,Mullah Duplaza disguised himself as a holy man.He took small bottle of antimony and set out on his adventure.He wandered here and there a bushy woods,hill and poines of the dacoits grazing among the rocks.While wandering he saw a man with a sword standing in front of big cave in a rock,Mullah shouted in big voice "o Kaloo i have heard from peoples that you are the helper of the people.you have saved many orphans,poor and widows from starvation.i have come from Persia and brought this gift for you".Kaloo came out from cave with a dagger in hand.He said to Mullah Dupiaza angrily"who are you why have you  come here"?

 Mullah replied sir i m stranger here.you are helper of the poor so mam i.you have generous heart.I have heared your good name and come here to offer this gift to you.    what is this said kaloo" It is a special kind of antimony from persia,if you apply it to your eyes."Kaloo said first you apply on own eyes so Mulah applied on own eyes  then kaloo told him i well apply and well see the effect after those walk on the rutted path they saw a man coming on the road Mullah told Kaloo that to slap him,Kaloo slapped him and the man return slap in Mullah face,Mullah told i swear me not slapped you the man told him shame on you yo have beard on his face but still a lie no body with you to slap me.and in his was he tested on lot of thing at the end they both reached in the gate  and that time the Mullah told Kaloo so sir the effect of antimony has expired and know visible to everybody.
