Several parties in Tamil Nadu started protests and film celebrities also joined the bandwagon. Everybody is trying to politicise the issue. Even Rajinikanth, Kamal Haasan are also responding to the issue like other politicians.
In such a situation, popular actor Arvind Swamy posted a message in the form of a poetry. It is getting huge appreciation from the netizens. The message strongly hits the regular politicians as well as the new politicians like Rajini, Kamal as well who are promising new age politics but acting like any other politicians.
Let us have a look at his message.
In the name of water..
Kindle the fire of hatred,
Indians against Indians,
Kindle the search for another Identity,
Still Indians vs Indians...
In the name of water..
Political aspirants, eager to fight for a cause,
Fighting within a country, that won freedom through peace,
A proud heritage.... ignored,
In the name of water, in the name of religion, in the name of....
Anything,
Seek, pursue, garner attention
Your only leverage_disruption and lawlessness.
No tolerance for disagreements, no tolerance for opinion,
No patience for non-violence, no patience for peace,
The wise one ideating forms of protest and teaching
To mobs that they cannot control,
So you hit yellows and khakis,
And lo and behold, we wake up today and have the water we seek,
And the leaders that we don't...
Yet I'm still thirsty... for sanity, I think...
I am still thirsty...
I cannot drink the water from the river that flows red.
In the name of water...
