I don't know how to react to your ignorance or rather arrogance to overlook the lives of poor tribals.
How dare you call this is mindless protests? I agree water is very important for drought-prone area but not by sacrificing lakhs of lives. Least they are asking for is rehab for all and everyone can wait untill rehab is done. If the rehab is not done now, it will never be done.
Your argument of killing some to give live for other is perfectly mindless.
