Sameer Bhatia Comes Out With The Longest Poem On India : "Bharat Ki Kahani".

The multi-hued image of our country's rich cultural heritage is proudly unfurled. 

"Bharat Ki Kahani" is the poet's attempt to portray India's multi-coloured glory as a poem. It is an attempt by the poet to experience those moments by taking pride in the greatness of India, its varied aspects, and the historical events.

It is a wonderful effort to imbibe the legacy and proud image of our great nation in poetry. There is also a glimpse of the languages spoken in various Indian regions. 

The poet conceived the historical facts and composed the poem. He experiences the blissful moments by covering diverse aspects to portray the beauty of India as he writes the excerpts of India's greatness in a rare and unique way. 

This effort was an enlightening experience for the poet.
