RE:Time to Rise
by stephen raj on Feb 09, 2007 04:51 PM

Industrialization should not be at the cost of poor who depend on solely on agricultral land. if cultivable land goes to industries than what will you eat then? ofcourse you will go to Mcdonald but what about the poor? they will migrate to Delhi and Mumbai's slums and the globalized elite will enjoy all teh benefits of SEZs where the tillers and the poor will be banned. Mind you the same CPM have been oppssoing in other states policy for SEZs but here it is keeping mum. Is it not double standard? let the Govt. ensure the poor agricultral labourers a decent living and then cary on your "development" activities.
