மனிதநேயம் எங்கே போனது ஒரு பெண் வயிற்றில் பிறந்தவன் தானே அவன் அவ்வாறு நடந்து கொள்ளலாமா? கடவுளே நீ இருக்கின்றாயா? இல்லையா?

அவனை பெற்றெடுத்த தாய் பார்த்தால் வேதனைப்படுவார் இவனை கருவிலே அழித்து இருக்கலாம் என்று நினைத்து இருப்பார்#Manipur

Glad that celebrities state their opinion on the horrific state in Manipur.

தெய்வம் என்பார் பெண்களை;

கடவுளின் பாகம் என்பார்
பார்வதியை

நம் தலையில் அல்ல
காட்டுமிராண்டிகளின்
தலையில் அடிக்க வேண்டும்

அநியாயங்களை நிறுத்துங்கள்;
அதிகாரம் உள்ளவர்கள்
களமிறங்குங்கள்

இன்னும் மணிப்பூர்…
