-Rajendra Kshetri
I am no longer the river I was once
The river that is showered with flurry of feelings and ferments
The river that is accorded with environ actions and attentions
Something hitherto unknown unseen unheard of
In the unheralded history of a river's journey
Nambul's painful journey from probity to pollution
The river that becomes a 'darling ' overnight
A 'darling ' of bureaucrats cocooned in 'babudome'
'Babupara Babus' who zero survey the river course
From 'Abulok' to 'Yangoi' to 'Yangoi Maril Achouba'.
I am no longer the river I was once
The river that is the 'Talk of the Town'
The trendy river that sets a trend
Trending 'conservation ' 'preservation ' 'protection ' 'rejuvenation ' and 'restoration'
The river that is currently the 'cynosure' of people
People who keeps saying things because they have to say something
Not because they HAVE SOMETHING to say
Oh friends of Nambul! don't you hear/read
"Nambul is bringing in Crores and Crores"
Don't you see people walking all the way smiling to banks!!!
