Free Beggar Republic Poem by Dr. Yogesh Sharma

Wheat one rupee kilo,
Rice three rupees kilo,
Pulses five rupees kilo,
Electricity two rupees per unit,
But water for free.

Laptop free and free television;
Cycle free and free lantern;
Free sari and free donations;
Free meal and free wine;
Free plot and free flat.

Religion is financed by state,
Pilgrimage is funded by state,
Services social are sponsored,
NGO world is state funded,
Where work charitable is good deal.

School admissions, without merit,
School certificates without exams,
Colleges’ admissions on quota,
Jobs on caste and communal merit,
Promotions sans work and merit.

Health and medical facilities for free:
Education too among freebies,
Caste and religion only merit.
Backwardness prized possession,
Is it a nation? Or, Free Beggar Republic?
