देखो राजसत्ता और सत्ता के ठेकेदारों...एक कविता
देखो राजसत्ता और सत्ता के ठेकेदारों
शहर जाग गया है इतने जुल्मों के बाद भी
लोग हमारे आवाजों की
ग़ज़लों गीतों और कविताओं मे ज़िंदा रखते अपने दर्दों को
हमारी मुट्ठी ज़्यादा ताकतवर है
साँसे हमारी ज्वालामुखी सी
गर्म हैं और भी ज़्यादा
हम हर शर्त पर ज़िंदा रहेंगे
और तुम्हारी मौत निश्चित है

My name is Prakash Gupta from Surguja in Chhattisgarh. Today I want to tell you the story of a bridge built with the cost of Rs 29 lakhs in Balrampur district. The construction was so bad that the bridge washed away in less than a month in Sept.
