              Many Garhwali language modern poets of twenty and twenty centuries as Bhavani Shankar Thapliyal (born Bhalgaon, Shrinagar, 1972) do not believe on mild tone in their expression. The poets as Bhavani Shankar Thapliyal believe that in twenty first century, the suppression, oppression, centralized authority oriented injustice should be expressed with anger, rage.    Bhavani Shankar is no more with us. Bhavani Shankar was editor of Regional reporter a weekly.

         The following poem of Thapliyal criticizes the centralized system of planning, execution and then diverting benefits to non local people. The poem shows its concern for local people of Uttarakhand for the central forces exploiting the local resources and diverting benefits to other regions and central authorities not returning benefits to Uttarakhandis from the resources.

कवि : भवानी शंकर थपलियाल (भलगांव , श्रीनगर , जन्म -1972 )

लड़ै हमारी अर जीत तुम्हारी—--The fight is ours and win is yours

जमीन हमारी अर जब्ती तुम्हारी।  --The Land is ours and ownership is yours.

जंगल हमारू अर हक तुमारु --- The forest is ours and right on forest is yours
लड़ै हमारी अर जीत तुम्हारी।. The fight is ours and win is yours

पाणी हमारू अर परियोजना तुम्हारी The water is ours and planning (to get water) is yours

विकास हमारू अर विजली तुम्हारी। The electricity developmental (spending) is ours and electricity is yours
लड़ै हमारी अर जीत तुम्हारी The fight is ours and win is yours

चिपको हमारू और चांट तुम्हारी। Forest protection duties  are ours and benefits are yours

राज्य हमारू बाँट तुम्हारी  The state is ours and distribution rights (recourses) are yours
लड़ै हमारी अर जीत तुम्हारी। The fight is ours and win is yours

विकास हमारू अर ठेका तुम्हारु The developmental work is ours and contracts are yours

गारेंटी हमारी अर रोजगार तुम्हारु। Guarantees are ours and right on  employments are yours 
लड़ै हमारी अर जीत तुम्हारी The fight is ours and win is yours

गाणी हमारी अर धीत तुम्हारी। The aspirations are ours and satisfactions are yours

माया हमारी अर प्रीत तुम्हारी  Perceptions are our ours and right on  love are yours
लड़ै हमारी अर जीत तुम्हारी। The fight is ours and win is yours
