The document appears to be notes on the poem "Farewell Party for Miss Pushpa" by Arun Kolatkar. It provides background on Kolatkar, including that he was a Marathi-speaking Jewish Indian poet who won the Sahitya Academy award. The notes then summarize that the poem parodies and satirizes the incorrect use of English by some Indians, portraying a farewell party with intentionally incorrect grammar. While Miss Pushpa is depicted as pleasant, the narrator's flattering speech suggests a hypocritical attitude. The tone is meant to be humorous though also sarcastic.

5.  The theme of poems consists of love, sex,

 Ironic perception and the distancing of

6. • The poem is a part of his collection “Hymns
and Darkness”
• A parody and satire on the usage of English
language by some Indians e.g. the habit of
using present continuous tense in place of
simple present and rambling style of
conversation
• Written in the form of dramatic monologue
where the speech made by the narrator
reflects more about him than about others

7. • The occasion is the farewell party being
hosted by a group of friends to Miss
Pushpa who is going abroad
• Use of grammatically incorrect and
inappropriate phrases and expressions
mark the poem bringing out the
outrageous use of English by the native
speakers e.g. “departing for foreign”, “all
knowing friends”, coming from very high
family”

8. • Miss Pushpa, although depicted as a
pleasing personality, is not without the
pretentious manners reflected through the
speakers lines “Miss Pushpa is never saying
no/Whatever I or anybody is asking she is
always saying yes”.
• The party ends with the summing up and
the concluding remarks made by Miss
Pushpa after the speaker invites her and
other members to the dais.
• The tone of the poem is humorous although
sarcastic is devoid of stingy bitternes.

9. • The other aberrations are incorrect use of
tense such as in “I am not remembering”,
“his wife was cooking nicely”, “she was
saying”, “that is showing”, “is never saying
no”, “am always appreciating”, “we are
wishing her bon voyage” etc.
• Attitude of the speaker is reflected through
his conscious effort at styling the language
and the flattering tone of the speech
suggesting a hypocritical and sham
personality.
