Nevertheless, the emperor called his prime minister, Todar Mal and asked him to take the project. Todar Mal in return sent his men to count the number of turns all the streets in the kingdom had. Next day Birbal noticed that Akbar was waiting anxiously for something. Birbal asked, “Jahanpanah, is there something wrong? You look so much worried.” Akbar said, “Yes, Birbal I am waiting for Todar Mal to report the number of turns all the streets in my kingdom had.” He then told Birbal about the letter that the emperor of Persia had sent him.

Birbal said, “Your majesty, I know the exact number of turns of each street not only in our kingdom but in any city of the world.”
