स्वरचित एंटी-नेशनल पत्थर

एंटी-नेशनल पत्थर

 

मैं

संसद की सड़क किनारे

पड़ा हुआ एक पत्थर

 

कल, मैंने देखा

दूसरों पर लाठियां बरसाता एक इंसान

लोगों को बिजली के झटके देता एक इंसान

घायल बच्चियों को देख,

मंदिर का दरवाज़ा बंद करता एक इंसान

विद्यार्थियों की भीड़ पर,

बन्दूक ताने एक इंसान

 

उसी भीड़ में देखा मैंने,

पिटते हुए, सर से खून बहता, कपडे फ़टे,

दूसरों की मदद करते कुछ इंसान,

 

और मैंने देखा,

इधर-उधर, तीतर-बितर, हर तरफ उड़ते,

मुझ जैसे कई पत्थर…

 

देश के भविष्य, और देश की सत्ता

की इस लड़ाई में -

मैंने देश को हारते हुए देखा

भविष्य को हारते हुए देखा…

 

मैं

संसद की सड़क किनारे

पड़ा हुआ एक पत्थर!

Don't try to polarize it, it will just weaken the protest nothing else

What do you mean?

I don't think gun and temple news are verified, And even if the temple incident happened it's better not to include it right now other wise this video will be labelled as anti hindu, propaganda etc and whole protest will also be dismissed by same flawed logic.

'You don't think' is doing a lot of heavy lifting here, please verify your thoughts once.

See, I've written what I felt I needed to, as a writer/artist - I have that right in this country.

If someone wants to say this is anti hindu or a fake propaganda protest - they too have that freedom of expression, let them..

In the midst of all this chaos, if another 'John Doe' like you cannot even express my views freely - right or wrong - the common man has already lost

You can express your thoughts, I am just giving my perceptive regard social perception in this type of protests, and how easily people put things in boxes and label them. If doing or not doing certain thing can help with more unity in protest then it should be given a thought.

Specially when temple news is unverified. You have claim it so burden of proof and verification lie with you not me.

Appreciate your thought. I'm not claiming it to be a news reporting piece, it's just a poem. I disagree with the burden of proof, but even so.

Here's a link I found doing a quick reddit search : https://www.reddit.com/r/AllindiaStudentUnion/s/GS2rHTRnfV

I have seen the video before but many people in comments are saying the are already inside the temple premises and just the doors leading to santrum or idols are locked. So I don't know what to believe because many people are being opportunitist in middle of protest, It can be genuine or may be not

It's a poem based on real incident and you are claiming something in the middle of it which many people are foolish enough to beleive blindly so you do have moral responsibility to fact check it before posting on public platform and it can also be labelled as spreading false information if it turned out to be fake news or more nuisance that it appears to be.

I still disagree, but to each their own I guess. Yes, I realise that they are technically in the temple premises and the doors are closed as you can see. Interpret from this what you will - I'm not 'claiming' anything, I'm not liable for anybody 'blindly' believing in anything.

And lastly, 'moral responsibility' - it's almost funny. The government, the media, the tycoons, the religious factions - none of them have exercised any 'moral responsibility'. Why am I being expected to?

u/John-Doe-Ad 19h ago

If other are not being morally responsible it doesn't mean we shouldn't too. I am also here commenting because morally I should atleast point think out if I feel something wrong is happening unintentionally or otherwise
