THE ILLUSION!!! by Bhakta Raj Giri Monday, November 13, 2006 Rated "G" by the Author. Share Print Save Become a Fan The poem criticizes the verification process which is a ploy curved by the Bhutanese autocratic govt. to deny and delay the repatriation process and reflects the plight of the Bhutanese Refugees in Nepal.
Oh! Verification! The cruel kind Heart to tear to doubt a decision Throwing dust in these immune eyes How long will you fester the refugee situation? How long could we keep sollowing? These sugar coated facts! How long this crocodile tear � Silence the world, And keep pending these itching desires? Resettlement! The testimony of your heinous act. How long, this gambling might last? Where the shadow of these- Fates might cast? Will these flaming spirits Get just concealed- OR B-L-A-S-T? tochhang.giri.gmail.com

I'm unsure of the current situation, the devistating news that last came out was that Refugees are not born but created by states, individuals and groups." said Sadako Ogata, the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees. She has rightly said that "the issue of human rights and the problems of refugees are inextricably linked. The vast majority of refugees are driven from their homes by human rights abuses. Persecution, torture, killings and the reprehensible practice of �ethnic cleansing� generate huge flow of refugees". The Nepali-speaking Southern Bhutanese refugees just fit in her description. They were driven off from their homes by the racist Bhutanese government since 1990. Over 134,000 of Bhutanese citizens, approximately twenty percent of Bhutan�s total population, are now living in the refugee camps, outside of camps in Nepal and India. Bhutan is thus, responsible generation of highest per capita refugee in the world. While refugees from such countries as Somalia, Afghanistan, Sudan and former Yugoslavia were victims of armed conflicts or civil war, refugees from Bhutan were forced to leave their country not because of civil war or foreign intervention but because of the racist and ethnocentric policies and feelings of the Government against the Nepali-speaking citizens of southern Bhutan, called Lhotshampas. They have become victims of the government�s racist and 'ethnic cleansing policy".
