Theme of a poetic monologue
INDIA has a
number of metropolitan cities. Most of these are the
product of imperial capitalism. India is blessed with a
number of Maha Nagars with a glorious historical past and
heritage. In these cities /towns, we still can see and
feel the grandeur of architecture, the echoes of
classical music, the traditional design and texture of
dresses and hobbies of inhabitants.
