Modiâs Rs 11,440-crore mission: No research project approved in Year 1 indianexpress.com/article/inâĻ

Take away Saraswati,
Take away the fair daughter who stands beside Mother Durga,
When books are treated as garbage,
worshipping her means nothing.
Load the goddess of learningâs clay form onto a truck today,
Let the right side stay empty,
Why keep a place for her at all?
Shape even the single-frame idol that way.
For the sake of books,
this state no longer needs even a touch of the Word.
From the five in that pandal, take Saraswati away.
.
.
From this morgue of her children, take Mother Durga away today.
Let Mahishasura stay alone.
His home isnât so far off anyway.
If needed, build him some idol with a thousand arms,
write âAll izz wellâ on placards and put them in those hands.
Let the demon stay.
Take the gods and goddesses away from the worship.
///
These are the opening & closing lines of a searing poem written by Arya Tirtha... after the recent unfortunate events that have transpired during Durga Pujo in Kolkata. The poem asks - are we even worshipping Lakshmi, Saraswati, Ganesh & Kartik. Should Maa Durga's idol be removed and only Mahishasura be worshipped?
.
No amount of AI translation can match the pain and anguish the original Bengali lines convey.... there is something deep in the Bengali consciousness that has been assaulted by the BJP this time around.
For decades - though Congress / Left / TMC regimes - Maa Saraswati never faced the bulldozer and though all the decades of Durga Pujo chaos in Kolkata - no one had to die in a mindless stampede or were excavators sent to destroy book stalls.
Is this just a reflection of who we have become?
//

Here is the original poem in Bangla - it would be amazing if this could be translated to all languages - keeping the context and rage intact.

I met Saurav and Ashu before leaving, and they are stronger than we think.
This is how the State tries to crush young people, but it should know that it will not break their spirit.
Keeping them in jail for unfurling the national flag? If this isnât an undeclared Emergency, then what is?
Repression will not break their spirit.
