OP Bhatnagar is one of the most important voices of Indian English poetry, its collection of thought poetry [1976], the feeling of fossils [1977], the retreat of angels [undated], audible landscapes, universal vision, floodlights [1984] and The cooling flame darkness [2001] illustrates the poet's political consciousness. In fact, Indian English poetry will never be far from India's social and political atmosphere and poets. They will not write under a single formula, but will start a dialogue between "people and people", so Bhatnagar also handles a number of ours. Social and political issues. Dr. A.N. Dr. Dwivedi commented:
"Bhatnagar's poetry covers a wide range of topics that directly focus on the long-term nature of his experience and the seriousness of his involvement in life." [CIE217]
Bhatnagar's handling of political themes is more determined and greater than any other Indian poet, because he has touched almost all aspects of the political scene. Dr.K.K.Singh observed:
from
"We found a candid analysis of the facts of contemporary life in Bhatnagar. Bhatnagar has a current phenomenon in all aspects of political life. No significant features have escaped his keen eye. Bhatnagar has torn apart several political riddles. The embrace of him. He reflects in front of us what is all political issues." [152]
Such as elections, bribery, corruption, political criminalization, depreciation of bribery by leaders, disparaging the character of state leaders, community division, socialism, linguistics and regionalism, etc., and the complete loss of political values are all influenced by poets. influences. A very sensitive and extremely ironic way, it has not been surpassed by any Indian poetry poet. If we are eager to promote Indian literature, his assertion that "Indian poetry must be Indian" cannot be ignored. It is not enough to copy and respond to English and English literature, because India's sensibility is not influenced by thought, emotion and sensibility, and because it has the foundation of vitality and potential. Dr. R.C. Sharma said:
"Bhatnagar advocates the origin of Indian poetry in English because of conflicts and worries; these conflicts and worries are basically Indians. Bhatnagar is aware of the English living environment of Indian poets and the responsibility of Indians. British poets must perform." [79]
O.P. Bhatnagar has dealt with many topics such as social awareness, political awareness, love, nature, philosophy and India. According to Dr. A. N. Dwivedi:
Bhatnagar's poetry covers a wide range of topics that directly focus on the greatness of his experience and the seriousness of his involvement in life. [CIE, 217]
In this way, Batnagar understands the rhythm and temperature of his time and thus carefully plans his poetry. Bhatnagar deals with political themes that are countless and real. The various social problems that caused the conscience of mankind were the subject of his poetry, and he tried to make a lot of explanations for everyone. S.C.Bose observed:
"O.P. Bhatnagar's poetry does have many dimensions, and poetry as a political consciousness is also of great significance." [V. V., 29]
A candid analysis of the facts of contemporary life, as well as a picturesque depiction, make his poems full of energy and appeal. According to Bhatnagar:
"Most of the important areas of today's life are influenced by the quality of political life, and the atmosphere is creating and living. Today's politics has replaced our religious way of life. We are rapidly paying attention to a nationalism that may define our role and Responsibility for the future of our country's destiny." [RC,'Introduction',8]
According to Bhatnagar:
English poetry in India should focus primarily on the social and political life of the Indian people and must democratize its concerns and relationships and make it a source of shared expectations... it must have an impact on corrupt corruption and corruption. Identity. It must talk about the complete loss of moral values, the gloom and frustration on the national stage. "[RC,'Introduction'9]
Bhatnagar's poetry is constantly seeking and working to symbolize a better social and political life. For him, it is a self-conscious process that is shaped and reshaped through constant practice - modified and modified in a visual way. Just like life itself, the gardener's job is to grow all the weeds and then grow them into the ultimate growth and flowering. Therefore, any particular school of thought will not affect his poetry. This is entirely his own - a personal experiment inspired by the surrounding environment, age, time and most important human dilemmas.
There is a large number of politically conscious poems in the first collection of the Batnagar Thoughts [1976]. Poetry with ideological content lacks the emotions of romantic poets, but the first poem of the poems discovers the process of poetry creation. Bhatnagar wrote:
"The meaning of poetry
from
Like sacred devotion
from
In a word, building construction. "[T.P, 5]
Bhatnagar fully clarified the question about God, which cannot be solved by worshippers bypassing the temple. God is a kind of meaning and divinity embodied in the words of poetry. Only an artist can clarify and seek him:
"We can go around the temple.
from
But never be around God.
from
We can bypass an idea
from
But never thought about it. "[ibid. 5]
In one of his poems, he predicted that the future would be as gloomy as it is now:
"The future seems to have faded.
from
Like the flowers of a cactus after dawn
from
Saints of bars, brothels and night clubs
from
Taste the casino and the underworld
from
Transform morality, values and virtues into ice cream
from
It is stunned by the interesting love children in the cone. "[T.P, 10]
In the poem "New Scale," Bhatnagar tries to strike a balance between the meat of a man, another poison of a man. The poet found that the maxim in the modern context has been shattered. "A simple and honest person uses a value spoon to measure life because he finds dishonesty is the most despicable way of life." The harsh reality of life can be seen as:
"A simple, honest person
from
In dilapidated mode
from
May still find it myself
from
Measuring the value of the life of the key
from
Bribery, corruption and forgery
For him, it is a painful poison. "[T.P., 12]
Bhatnagar hopes that people who accumulate wealth are less concerned about their interests with their compatriots, and they do not feel that any unethical behavior is exactly the opposite of the code of conduct. In another poem "A Woe of Wonder", Bhatnagar expresses our emotional and helpless attitude. The poet regrets the diversity and division that our country has today. The focus of the poet is nothing but nationality, an emotion and an attitude. This idea was written by the poet:
"We are a long country
from
No special direction
from
Trimurti is an all-encompassing vision
from
From here to the eternal resurrection
from
Tell us about our frivolous story. "[T.P., 14]
Also in the poem "Country Care Bonds", the poet commented on the loyalty and patriotism of the Indians who accumulated vanity, wealth and arrogance through the services provided to the countries they immigrated to. These so-called loyal citizens and tireless patriots visit India for their own career:
"Loyal citizens are proud of the patriots
from
Never forget to take care of your country
from
Fly home from time to time
from
Or choose a bride like a prince
from
Or buy a country's land gem
from
Put their kingdom in the safety of the band
from
Dense loyalty guarantee
from
Although they do not belong to this country
from
It definitely belongs to their empire. "[T. P., 15]
The second collection, Feeling Fossils, also has some poems of political interest. Although Bhatnagar treats politics in an indirect way, it rarely points out some very rare phenomena, even those who specialize in political games do not know about these phenomena. "Through the Bar" is a lifelike poem that slams modern politicians. His comments on modern politicians are worthy of reference:
"moral intensive
from
Like a dense forest
from
Don't be bright;
from
This game is very strange
from
Hunting loyalty
from
romantic. "[F.F, 16]
Another famous poem "The Land of No Man" expresses the view that freedom does not bring racial change to the lives of those who still live in the dark dungeons of poverty, illiteracy and justice. The liberation movement was proposed by the masses, but only a few privileged people came forward to control them. When the efforts and sacrifices of the masses succeeded, those privileged minors captured the country and continued to rule the country in a democratic struggle. So the poet feels right:
"Before the British came
from
Land is not ours:
from
After they left,
from
It is not ours
from
Land belongs to
from
For those rulers;
from
Others just inherit
from
No land. "[F.F., 19]
The third episode, "Angles of Retreat," has several thought-provoking poems in which poets explore the meaning of time, which is evaluated from events related to hypocrisy that appear in materialist caves. The tone of the poet in this series is ironic and ironic. In the poem "History is a sorry round," the poet hopes that historians often ignore the importance of the average person, and they tend to magnify the behavior of a few privileged people. There is no other way for political followers to reach the length of history. Historians believe that their work in recording titles and torture is the cause of national unity and security, and they are helped by politicians:
"Political followers are their assistants.
from
About who's attractive prediction
from
They open fire to eat and perform
from
Japanese fire walking performance
from
Make the already stunned people dazzled. "[A.R, 40]
However, political leaders and followers have forgotten that tyrants and vampires must face degeneration:
"Too much repression and political activities
from
Ferment yourself...
