Once the pillar, the mighty force
Now a ship that\u2019s lost its course
The Indian National Congress they say
A glorious past, but a fading day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Nehruvian dream, a tale of pride
Now buried deep in ego\u2019s tide
Dynasty rules, the throne is kept
While merit waits, ignored, and swept<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Promises made, like castles in air
But action? Oh, that\u2019s rare and spare
Policies swing like a pendulum wide
Confusion reigns, with no guide inside<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The hand that fed the nation\u2019s soul
Now clutches power as its only goal
Reforms delayed, excuses flow
\u201cBlame it on others, that\u2019s all we know\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Elections come, and masks are worn
Ideals traded, alliances torn
Opposition sharp, but vision weak
The people\u2019s trust, they seldom seek<\/p>\n\n\n\n
From Quit India to quitting ground
The party\u2019s voice, a hollow sound
Once a beacon, a nation\u2019s pride
Now a relic, struggling to survive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But history calls, the stage is set
Congress will fade to regret
The people wait, the clock does chime
It wouldn\u2019t evolve, just lose to time<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
