I am calling it out.

My country is ruled by dirty politics
Not by popular sovereignty
Politics in India is a dirty game that I'd want you all to shame.

Thousands of children are sold every day. 
And even while we are talking
an infant/ a child/ a woman gets raped !
Is it how you want this society to shape?
Look at those girls who have been harassed and have fear 
to walk on this earth; And NO! 
They dare not show their tears
because their pain you can't bear.

She screams but you don't hear.
She cries but you don't care.
Rights are the claims we learnt in our books but
 What if you violate it? Who do we blame?
You are shaping and designing my thought but, 
not in a way that I want.

Look at the stomach protrude
Due to hunger and lack of food.
Look at those children who do not have a pillow under their heads
Nor a shelter above those heads.
I repeat it-
Politics in India is a dirty game!
That showers on its people like an acid rain.
Look at those manual scavengers
Who fight hard with their lives like the real Avengers.
Make better decisions 
or
May I say, you seem to need some 'Rights and Laws' revision.

Children come to your govt schools but
Teacher treat them like fools.
But for you it's nothing to worry and to be cool
Because you choose to become the govt 
only to rule!
Rule by hitting and beating
Rule by taking away people's lives,
So that they can't rise again to fight!

You said you will take care of public facilities, food and good health
But now you are busy in counting your wealth.
You killed innocent people
You killed people's aspirations
You killed their beliefs and trust
And now you lose your human status.

We are used to growing up together
With so much affection and  empathy for one another. 
But you came by and
Sinned the idea of love.

You ask us to love this place
But let me tell you.
You are cheating yourself by creating hate.
Now stop it !!!
It's just enough
By being racist and unjust
You lost humanity
And humanity lost you.

Your time starts now, to count how many you killed?
Because we are hear to claim our bill.

You forgot everything! 
But as a mere high school student 
May I help you with
What a 'netaji' must give to his public-
That is- Good governance and equal justice
Ensure peace prevalent in the society and
Hold integrity of the democratic republic.
