Poetry

Paying Tax is Our Duty

The principles of Kara from Smritis and Arthashashtra

Still prevails, In today’s digital maze,

As Kautilya says,

Revenue is the backbone of a state,

If collected in a right equate

From a right mate.

So, when Collecting taxes or paying taxes

Aids in building a proper tax frame

And renders our duty towards our Nation’s Estate,

Then how does it matter,

In mere feeding the pockets,

      Just for our sate.
