A spontaneous satirical verse in solidarity of struggling students of Ambedkar Periyar Study Circle at IIT–Madras and other educational campuses, who are up against caste and other forms of injustices in Indian society and resisting the Hindutva onslaught to stifle their voice
Kahin pe nazar kahin pe nishane ke liye
Jati-dharma ke naye gul khilaane ke liye
Dalit-bahujanon par chhupkar war ke liye
Muslim-Christian par seedhe hamle ke liye
Sanghi bano, Hindutva ki paathshala chalo!(To deceive the people and pursue the real target
To make mischiefs of caste and religion
To target the dalit-bahujans in indirect ways
And to declare war on Muslims and Christians
