Medha Patekar is right in her decision, the government should provide complete rehabilation to the affected family and then only it should undertake the projects in Narmada river. The country's basic infrastructure such as water and power should improve inorder to grow our economy

Dear Mr. Sengupta,
I really appreciate your concern for your relatives who live in the areas where there's scarce water supply. How selfless and thoughtful of you when the people in question are your very own relatives. But i doubt you would've had the same opinion had your relatives been one of the millions of people who would be left homeless and be deprived of their very means of livelihood.
I and the whole of India would've truly appreciated your concern had you put forth an alternative which would'v solved the water and energy problems by building the dams as well as the problem of the millions affected. You cant just ignore the lives of millions for a million others who could be your relatives. Would you be ready to leave your home and job and everything you have without being given any compensation or without any rehabilitation, so that you can quench the thirst of a few others?
The social activists never were and are still not against the building of the dams and the problem of the millions of ppl of Gujarat, Rajasthan Maharashtra etc etc being solved. All that they ask for is rehabilitate the ppl who will be affected and this can never be proved wrong. ACCEPT IT!
