Uniform.Dress.Code.For.India's.Leaders

Uniform.Dress.Code-The.High.Road


time.for.our.leaders.to.look.smart
western.to.office.is.state.of.art


the.Chinese, Japanese, Koreans
they.are.smart.and.trim, why.not.Indians?


Kejriwal, Naidu..lead.the.pack
their.image, neatly.trousered, nothing.lacks


kurta-pyjama.clad, he.met.Trudeau
to.be.PM.is.Rahul, at.all, due?


Indian.wear-dhoti, kurta -is.fine
for.religion, home, that.is.my.line
even.for.poll.campaigns
where.it.assures.handsome.gains





why.carry.symbols.to.office, on.sleeves?
discard.labels.and, sigh.of.relief, heave
some.wear.fancy.FabIndia.dresses
a.ramp.show? let.smiles.be.suppressed




religion, region, language, dress...to.fore?
they.should.get.their.due, nothing.more



let.differences.be.suppressed
a.compulsive.disorder, we.seem.obsessed




to.start.with, a.uniform.dress.code
for.us.to.take, that.is.the.high.road

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
Our leaders look quite casually dressed most of the time-including Ministers, MPs, Chief Ministers, MLAs, MLCs, corporators.. This obsession with ethnic wear and casual dressing gives the impression that governance is a non-serious activity. I suggest the leaders should look more business and result oriented.They are here to serve.to start with, let them be properly dressed-simple but elegant-like most leaders world-wide.
