Collective Responsibility Poem by Mehta Hasmukh Amathaal

Collective responsibility

Friday,8th June 2018

It has no meaning
for freedom and liberty winning
if people are not fully educated
and politicians are not related properly to the national interests

in democracy, it is the collective responsibility
and everybody is aware of the national identity
the constitution is not allowed
to be used against or subverted

no one is above the law
and thus can't be allowed
to interpret it to their advantage
and country is put to disadvantage

when the country is taken over by the caste and creed
there develops an urge for the greed
entire wealth o the nation is siphoned
and the economy is damned

so when cabinet takes the decision
on the basis of collective opinion
entire nation respects and owes
full respect if that is due

some of the political parties are trying to malign the country
by instigating people and burning public property
exciting farmers, teachers, public workers to come on the road
we have seen it this before but now want to add life into dead identity
