Preparedness Poem by Mehta Hasmukh Amathaal

Preparedness
Wednesday,1st November 2018

India must take precaution
and take caution in dealing with the foreign matters
we should never succumb or surrender
at the cost of national interest and suffer

we are a friendly country
and accommodate all countries
but they can't take us for granted
and behave irresponsibly as they wanted

we have legitimate defense needs
and we must procure it to defend
from the friendly countries
and produce it also under licenses

we don't want an armed race in the region
but we are faced by two hostile nations
they are our close neighbors
and always create border problems

we got to be self-reliant
and the capability or preparedness should remain intact
we want no disturbance
but we should be ready to face

Hasmukh Mehta
