the web of strings


The Sedition Act
It stays too long in our lives
Once it was necessary
During the birth of the nation

Now the web of strings
It has served its usefulness
It has now become the tool
The silence of the critics

Besides it is used to cage
The opposition members with prosecution
Unfairly used to block threats to its rule
The government of the day wants the law

The seditious articles of pro-government cronies
The sedition act hardly used to silence them
Nothing is done to cage them into custody
There is the elegant silence by the authority

It has to work both way
It can't be closing one eye to another
The people will not tolerate injustice
By law every one should be treated equally
