Paheli was: There is a police officer. He is very hungry. He sees some fruit on a tree across the river. He cannot swim and there is no boat or any other means of going to the other side of the river. How will he eat the fruit?
Answer: He is a police officer, which means a custodian of law and "kanoon ke haath bahut lambe hote hain" which literally translates as "law's hands are very long". So he can extend his long hands and pluck the fruit.
