They Are Real Teachers Poem by Asit Kumar Sanyal

In foreign countries,
They do many things for teacher
In America, teachers get the status of VIP
In the honourable court of France
Only teacher is allowed to sit on the chair
In Japan, police take special permission
to arrest a teacher
In Korea, a teacher enjoys the facilities
of an Indian minister.

But those nations never do few things
They never enroll a stupid as teacher
in lieu of money
They don't appoint the party cadres
in school as rehabilitation
And they don't recruit the relatives
of political leaders and administrators
Their teachers pass the acid test
And deserve what they get.
