abt big dams
by kailash on Apr 06, 2006 05:56 PM   Permalink | Hide replies

Hi,

I m kailash N, bhardwaj, Researcher in Deptt of Environment Sciences, HNB Garhwal University, Srnagar-Garhwal, Uttaranchal. We are too facing the problem of big dam.

as far as the construction of dams for irrigation or hydroelectric generation is concerned, i m of openion the smaller dams. they r cost effective, environmentally supprtive and socially very good. they r not at all destructive to environment and also a good electricity generator.

i support Medha Patekar as she is only genuin thinker of environment and under privilaged masses.

Now consider the other side, How many people have really lost their good land? The villages they were staying in had none of the basic amenity and flood destroy every thing there each year. Government of all the four states have agreed and cooperated well to rehabitate the poor and needy villagers.Most of the villagers are even happy with their new location and they are allowed to use their old land till they come under submergence as well.

Medha Patkar and NBA Activist threaten people and telling them not to take any benefite for any rehabilitation why?

from the last six years, the NBA activists have been involved in violence and have 200 FIRs against them.
