प्यासे ने पानी को
अमृत कहा और डूबते हुए शख्स ने ज़हर..
मात्रा का बोध न हो तो
अमृत और प्रेम भी ज़हर बन सकते हैं..!!✨
क्षमा, दया, तप, त्याग, मनोबल
सबका लिया सहारा
पर नर व्याघ्र सुयोधन तुमसे
कहो, कहाँ, कब हारा?
क्षमाशील हो रिपु-समक्ष
तुम हुये विनत जितना ही
दुष्ट कौरवों ने तुमको
कायर समझा उतना ही।
अत्याचार सहन करने का
कुफल यही होता है
पौरुष का आतंक मनुज
कोमल होकर खोता है।
क्षमा शोभती उस भुजंग को
जिसके पास गरल हो
उसको क्या जो दंतहीन
विषरहित, विनीत, सरल हो।
तीन दिवस तक पंथ मांगते
रघुपति सिन्धु किनारे,
बैठे पढ़ते रहे छन्द
अनुनय के प्यारे-प्यारे।
उत्तर में जब एक नाद भी
उठा नहीं सागर से
उठी अधीर धधक पौरुष की
आग राम के शर से।
सिन्धु देह धर त्राहि-त्राहि
करता आ गिरा शरण में
चरण पूज दासता ग्रहण की
बँधा मूढ़ बन्धन में।
सच पूछो, तो शर में ही
बसती है दीप्ति विनय की
सन्धि-वचन संपूज्य उसी का
जिसमें शक्ति विजय की।
सहनशीलता, क्षमा, दया को
तभी पूजता जग है
बल का दर्प चमकता उसके
पीछे जब जगमग है।
- रामधारी सिंह 'दिनकर'
Imagine years from now, looking into your mother's eyes, seeing the quiet disappointment she tries to hide. She believed in you, sacrificed so much so you could chase your dreams, always telling you how proud she would be to see you succeed.
But as the years went by, you kept putting off the hard work, always thinking there was more time.
Now, you're standing before her, not with the success you promised, but with excuses.
The dreams she held for you, the ones she worked so hard to support, are unfulfilled.
The look in her eyes isn't just disappointment
—it's sadness, knowing that all her sacrifices went to a future that never came. And you realize, too late, that you didn't just let yourself down-you let her down. The chance to make her proud is gone, and that regret is something you'll carry with you, knowing you could have given her the happiness she deserved, but you didn't.

- A person who is in jail or in police custody cannot vote.
This applies whether the person is under-trial or convicted.
Meaning:- "If you are in custody, your voting right is suspended."

- Article 84 only gives basic eligibility (citizenship + age).
Actual disqualification is given under RPA, 1951 Section 8.
- Only persons convicted of certain offences are disqualified.
+ Key point :-
Under-trial prisoners are not disqualified So they can contest and even win elections

"Unless convicted, a person can fight elections -even from jail.'
