Let's become "chaabiwallahs"

What's the difference between a "chaabiwallah" and a "doctor" ?

A chaabiwallah or a 'key maker' as you imagine him, is a shabbily dressed man sitting idly for most of the day, on a dented stool placed on the pavement besides a small cupboard containing keys, ready to be shaped into the required outline.
Sometimes no key is available and you desperately wish to open the lock, which is difficult to be broken. To your rescue comes the key maker!

Many of them succeed by trial and error method. But that also makes them powerful enough to be able to open any physical Lock!

Have you ever then fretted about the security the lock makers promised? The peaceful sleep that I used to get after locking my possessions, will never be the same after knowing this fact!

However, also think about another fact. These chaabiwallahs are capable to breaking into houses and cars, capable of making easy money in the wrong way. Yet, they choose the right path.

Now let's talk about doctors!
They have knowledge. They too, have a key (treatment) for the lock (disease). But you won't see them sitting idle, dressed pathetically. On the contrary, they ll boast of having made better fitting keys to the existing locks.
These chaabiwallahs will go to the extent of even destroying the lock in the quest of finding the best key. They sometimes do not ask the basic question "is another key required?"
Now we have companies that make keys for locks that are alike. Even a child can tell you that no two locks are made alike. Thus, buying keys from these companies claiming to make the best keys, is nothing but a business of fooling the customer.
