Just a thought

Muddai h, mudda'lai h, Qanoon h adaalat hai
Sab hain phir kyon watan ki yeh haalat hai

Mujrim sadkon pe begunaah qaidkhanon mein
Adaalaton mein ab insaaf kahan, haan siyasat hai

Qanoon andha tha  ab behra aur gunga bhi hai
Taajjub nahi gar mulzimon ko badi raahat hai

 Mulzim ki dhoom hai aur mujrim ki dhoom hai
Fasaad hai, ismatdari hai aur halaakat hai

Naumeed na ho ai Imteyaz, naumeedi kufr hai
ke Adaalate uzma mein baqi abhi sama'at hai

Anirudh Krishna, in his book ‘The Broken Ladder’ diagnoses the causes and effects of economic dispari...

The great Derangement: Climate change and unthinkable by Amitav Ghosh tells stories, history and politics of climate change in a single book. The deftness of storytelling of fiction giant of our time is at full display in this remarkable book on imminent crisis the planet earth is facing today. Amitav Ghosh, the celebrated author expiates or in other word introspects on behalf of fellow writers by writing this extraordinary non-fiction.  Why the master story teller resorts to non-fiction? The answer comes from the author himself - “Yet, it is a striking fact that when novelists do chose to write about climate change it is always outside of fiction”. The author rues elsewhere in the book, “If certain literary forms are unable to negotiate these torrents, then they will have failed- and their failure will have to be counted as an aspect of broader imaginative and cultural failure that lies at the heart of climate crisis”. This era of collective failure of art a...
