Need Of Odisha Poem by Gajanan Mishra

Odisha needs honesty,
But where is it?
Odisha needs freedom,
Freedom from corruption
Freedom from intoxication
Freedom from foreign regulations.
People of Odisha, in history
Called lion.

In the past some asked
Where is Odisha?
And the replied was
Where there is Jagannath
And Bhagabata that is Odisha.
At present we repeat the same question,
Where is Odisha?
And the answer would be
Where there is provisions to sell
More and more liquor,
From where bonded labourers
Are being exported,
Where there is the worship of
A dictator called Kamsa.
Odisha is in hunger, in thirst,
And in the practice of begging.

Dear, go on putting
More and more questions.
