Nawaz Sharif comes to Delhi for a meeting with Vajpayee. After dinner, Vajpayee says to Sharif: "Well, Nawaz Sahab, I don't know what you think of the members of your Cabinet, but mine are all bright and brilliant."
"How do you know?" asks Sharif.
"Oh well, it's simple', says Vajpayee. "They all have to take special tests before they can be a minister. Wait a second.... He calls Advani over and says to him, "Tell me, Advaniji, who is the child of your father and of your mother, who is not your brother and is not your sister?"
"Ah, that's simple", says Advani, "It is me!".
"Well done, Advaniji", says Vajpayee.
Sharif is very impressed. He returns to Islamabad and wonders about the intelligence of the members of his Cabinet. He calls in his Cabinet Secretary, recounts the dinner table conversation that he had with the Indian Prime Minister, and asks him to test the IQ of a particular minister.
The Cabinet Secretary calls in the minister and says: "The Prime Minister has asked me to ask you to answer the following question: 'Who is the child of your father and of your mother, who is not your brother and is not your sister?'
The minister thinks and thinks and doesn't know the answer. "I'll have to think about it further. Please tell Prime Minister sahab that I'll let him know tomorrow?" "Of Course", says the Cabinet Secretary, "You've got twenty-four hours." The minister goes away, thinks as hard as he can, calls in his chief secretaries and joint secretaries, but no one knows the answer. Twenty hours later, the minister is very worried because he still had no answer and only four hours were left.
Eventually, the minister says to himself: "I'll ask Benazir. She's clever, she'll know the answer." He calls Beanzir. "Mohtarma", he says, "tell me who is the child of your father and of your mother, who is not your brother and is not your sister?"
"Very simple", says Benazir, "It's me!"
"Of course", exclaims the minister and rings up the Cabinet Secretary.
"I've got the answer: it's Benazir Bhutto."
"No, minister sahab", says the Cabinet Secretary, "you'll lose your job if you give this wrong answer. The right answer is: Advani!"
