“Chalo aaj fir kuchh likhta hoon/ Sabdo ke aar mein kuch lamho ko bunta hoon/ Betiyaan Na Banana Mohe Fir Se/ Beti hone ka bojh dho rahi hoon kab se” — these were the lines from a poem recited by Ishan Paul at recently concluded poetry slam held at Kankarbagh. The venue was almost jam packed with poetry lovers. The event saw a participation of students from various reputed institution of Patna.
