World Environment Day passed, few seminars and lot of write up appeared in the media. Crocodile tear shed by many, including what they claim to be as cultural activists. They vented their frustration over river encroachment, filling and river bed rise. Crying for a better river and its flows. But none of them touched upon the biggest reason- building of dams on the up stream. How intelligent, what a love for environment and nature. This is a criminal attitude that they do not see the impact of Farakka or numerous barrages built in upstream either to obstruct for hydro power or diversion of water for irrigation. A farakka alone causes the impact of few years of draught. I simply do not understand what is in their mind and how do they think of things in their motherland. They can not see thing as they are supposed to, because they have sold their souls to others. While Tipimukh issue is debated, PM has rightly guided the nation to think that -we will bring back the river stream by digging all of them starting from Jamuna. This should rest the ongoing dam issue, what a devotion to cover the other's wrong doing and what an idea! A child can understand if there is no enough current river will silted faster and digging will have no impact, in fact that is how all our river beds have risen and lost its navigability and irrigation capacity. They even did not dare to speak of risen sea level as we know that also causing us immensely during the monsoon as river can not drain its water into the high level sea. When a greater portion of people do not want to understand what actually harms them how this nation can sustain! All these halloo balloo on environment, nodi, chor, poor people is nothing but mockery. I only wish them that they come to their senses thinking of their offspring's future. |
