Poem: Partition- A Melancholic Tragedy

15th August 1947,

A day of rejoice and freedom,

As proud Indian like others,

Unfurled Indian National Flag at CHT,

Alas! With utter surprise,

Pakistan armies took down Indian Flag!

Doomsday begun for indigenous tribals,

Hopes shattered to darkness and

Outcry from Chakma leaders,

To be part of India,

But their outcry remained unheard.

Sufferings that Chakmas and others went through,

Is untold and unmeasurable.

‘Some’ can’t exactly

Feel our sufferings and painful exodus,

Because they didn’t go through it exactly,

Suffering still continues even in

21st Century due to lack of,

Concrete decision from state and

Central Government particularly in

Arunachal Pradesh, a part of

Sovereign India, a land of largest democracy.

An appeal to convert Melancholic Tragedy,

To ecstasy of Freedom from sufferings,

And discrimination in Arunachal particular

and India in general.
