There Should Not Be Discrimination Whether The Accused Is Elder Or Younger! Poem by Dr.V.K. Kanniappan
There Should Not Be Discrimination Whether The Accused Is Elder Or Younger!
In spite of the counselling learned ministers
...with lots of efforts trying to hide certain facts
and convince the king by telling many precedence,
the King justified and ran over his chariot next day
...over his youthful son and prince who had inadvertently
ran his chariot over the calf of the cow pitifully!
Thereby, the King proved that there is
...no discrimination whether the accused is
elder or younger for maintaining justice!
Note:
The king, Manuneethi Chola, ruled over the Chola Kingdom in South India; He maintained justice in his country as per ‘Manu Ruling’ without partiality whether the person who errs is young or adult; common subject or his kith and kin.
This poem 'There should not be discrimination whether the accused is elder or younger! ' is a translation of a poem from Tamil literature 'pazhamozhi naanooRu'
சால மறைத்தோம்பிச் சான்றவர் கைகரப்பக்
காலைக் கழிந்ததன் பின்றையும் – மேலைக்
கறவைக்கன் றூர்ந்தானைத் தந்தையும் ஊர்ந்தான்
முறைமைக்கு மூப்பிளமை இல்.93 பழமொழி நானூறு
