New Delhi, March 29 (IANS) Poets suddenly find themselves in great demand in Lucknow, a city known for its culture of Urdu 'shayari'. And the reason lies not in a spurt in literary activity but in the Lok Sabha polls.
Politicians are seeking them out to script public speeches. 'Yes, it's true, these days politicians are approaching us and seeking favours,' poet Gajendra Solanki told IANS.
The leaders want 'catchy, crowd-pulling compositions,' in sync with their party's ideology, he said.
