Sardar Sarovar Revisited

Today I read the disturbing news about man commiting suicide over the construction of DAM and rehabilation. When is this madness going to end? Can't we think about all the other issues that needs to be solved at this point of time in the country? Help - someone.

Google The Calendar

Googling has gone a long way now! When is Google going to stop surprising the community?
Here is the post where I came to know about it.
Just used it for a few minutes now - all the time my mouth open wide with amazement of what the Google mind is capable of doing next.
Keep going Google - we are watching you!
And we expect you to keep up with the seemingly "non-pragmatic" principle "Don't be evil". Do you think it is still possible after such huge growth (and growing still)?

What's next - hmm?

On Sardar Sarovar and Medha Patkar

Here one of my friend's has triggered me to write on this now!

I have always been a fan of Medha Patkar. She is a fantastic leader (I believe her to be more than a politician) and I sense passion in what her goals are upto. Dams, on one hand are a very good sign of economic growth. But when the same Dam's - for the purpose of a creature on this earth with 6th sense can destroy millions of floura and fauna species forever and forever, then Dam's form the most dangerous of all of man's creations.

Think of it - is it possible to recreate the forests that are lost? Is it possible to re-live all the millions of years the land has gone through and recreate the ecosystem that has thrived in that place for time?

Think of it - is it still possible to keep our place on this earth safe by disturbing the biological cycle?

Even if you forget the evil nature of human - who does not care about any other living beings on earth JUST BECAUSE THIS CREATURE COULD THINK! Think about the 10,000 families that have to relocate - that to a land where there have no choice! What is the meaning of democracy? How many times would you relocate from your already settled house?

Hat's off Medha.

Do you "people" still think man is fit to live on this planet after all this cruelty?

Do you want to drink and eat all the living beings that you have murdered without mercy?
