‘You will rise, Umar Khalid’: Trinamool Congress MP Mahua Moitra pens poem for student-activist
New Delhi: Trinamool Congress MP Mahua Moitra has penned a poem, ‘You will rise, Umar Khalid’, for activist Umar Khalid, who is accused of being involved in a conspiracy behind the Delhi riots of 2020 and was recently denied bail by the Supreme Court.
Sharing the poem on her ‘X’ account on Wednesday, Moitra has written, “You may write me down in history With your bitter, twisted lies, You may trod me in the very dirt But still, like dust, I'll rise… You may shoot me with your words, You may cut me with your eyes, You may kill me with your hatefulness, But still, like air, I’ll rise. (sic)”
Umar Khalid and Sharjeel Imam, former JNU student-activists, were denied bail by the apex court on Monday in the Delhi riot case, while five others, Gulfisha Fatima, Meeran Haider, Shifa Ur Rehman, and Mohd. Saleem Khan and Shadab Ahmad, were granted bail.
A group of JNU students had earlier allegedly shouted slogans against Prime Minister Narendra Modi as well as Home Minister Amit Shah on the JNU campus after denial of bail to Khalid and Imam, drawing sharp criticism from senior BJP leaders.
