Third Village
Still have to wait for relief
determined destiny exceedingly soaked by politics
in poverty ridden Somalia
echoes the refrain of insufficiency
Rather, earthquake should occur?
comforting one belly, relief would have been chock-a-block,
speaks the reverie of Birman*
becoming road inside the file.
Graduate daughter comes back home planning
to open a beauty parlor shop.
frustrated sperms of Birman
unable to borne word
having found out the famine of word
congregation gets called by Neta*.
Salesgirl walks off by affording solace
Ugh! Duplicate solace
Solace seems a clasp of lightening to the village
But Earth and Village are alike
Earth endures farmer’s plough to brew life
While, village endures solace to brew dream
Still have to wait for BPL* rice
Relief destined fate
Rather, landslide should occur?
to live in relief camp would have been splendid
Everything Sarkari*
Vaat* and Tarkari*.
There is scarcity of water in Village
his updated status in Facebook,
Did it reach the government or not?
President did read or not?
Prime Minister liked it or not?
In thousands of Birmansalla*
There is no water
no Khana*, uncovered
Chana* and Mana*
Since, this is not the village of President or
the Prime Minister.
This is Third Village
Yes, a Third Village.

Modi gives positive assurance on Gorkhaland representation submitted by BGP
GANGTOK, October 21: Gujarat Chief Minister and BJP stalwart Narendra Modi has expressed his confidence over the realization of separate State of Gorkhaland demand, a perennial aspiration of the 1.25 crore Indian Gorkhas.
The BJP heavyweight leader had expressed the above confidence when Bharatiya Gorkha Parisangh (BGP) national executive committee member Prabin Khaling submitted a representation on the Gorkhaland demand to him at Gangtok.
The representation containing copies on the century old Gorkhaland demand and the national perspective on the demand was submitted to Mr. Modi during his recent tour of Sikkim.
Representing BGP, Mr. Khaling briefed the Gujarat Chief Minister about BGP which is spread over 22 States of the country and is an apolitical body considered to be the apex body of the 12.5 million Indian Gorkhas. The BGP requested him to not to limit the Gorkhaland demand as a demand of the Gorkhas of Darjeeling and Dooars region only but consider the issue as the ‘national identity’ demand of the 12.5 million Gorkhas spread all over the country including Sikkim.
After giving a patient hearing, Mr. Modi opined that Gorkhaland will happen one day and gave a positive response to the BGP representation, it is informed.
