You will search for the region I come from and my caste would be open for debate. You may also call me Antinational. You may brand me with tags for which I don't care. You may also judge my character. A saint or a sinner, you may declare my name is not the person I am. It's just an identity acquired at birth. How can it define what I am? What really is its worth?

And until we reach such a situation, perhaps all we can do is be hopeful about it and create the future today. So thank you for doing your bit in creating this future and reciting this rhyme. It was beautiful, truly
Hello, Rashmi. Thank you for this amazing poem. It's witty, it's powerful, and it sends this message where it says that we are not labels, we are not categories, and our names are not these labels or categories, but we are truly, truly more than that. Something unites us as something bigger, and that's being part of humanity. So thanks for this. I really, really enjoyed this

So people apparently have a problem with that also. And also it's the same with whenever we are filling up some sort of a form. It says write your father's name or your husband's name. I mean, why I can't use my mother's name? What is the need for a man's name in my form? It has to be either father or the husband. I mean, that to me is just totally weird
Whether it's Gupta or it's any like my surname is Gupta or somebody else's name is something we are humans and this is such an important thing that you said that surname will reflect caste, religion and so many other things. Why can't humanity be valued? So the way you recited it, the way you wrote it I am running short of words how to appreciate it. Ma'am, well done. Only I can say well done. Brilliant, superb. And keep writing
