Some important features of Modern Indian English Poetry.

1. Modern Indian English writers reject the old tradition of using mythical story. They do not exaggeratedly glorify the Indian culture.

2. In the modern era of writing, poetry become more secular and realistic in nature. The potes are now less romanticizing the reality. They do not live in a utopian world now. They are more concerned about the fact and real situation of the country.

3. The focus of the poets has been shifted from the nature, ancient mythology, and legends to the dirty poverty striken dingy cityscapes.

4. The poets are more candid and jolly and friendly in the mode life of expression and clarification. They now freely talks about sexuality without any hesitation and other themes which apparently would seem obscene to the poets of the pre-independence old poets.

5. Irony becomes the most sharp weapon of the poets. They use satirical and sarcastic ideas to mock or criticize others which make them popular among the readers.

6. Moreover, almost all the poets of the post independence era suffer from a sense of alienation and they are continuously in search of a sense of intigrity with their cultural rules.
