<br/><br/> "Akbar and the Crows" is a popular folktale featuring Emperor Akbar and his witty advisor, Birbal. The story highlights Birbal's intelligence and quick thinking when Akbar asks an unusual question—how many crows are there in the city? Birbal cleverly responds with a humorous yet logical answer, stating that the number of crows equals the city's population and will change as birds come and go. The tale emphasizes wisdom, problem-solving, and humor, which are recurring themes in Akbar-Birbal stories.
