The natural beauty of Uttarakhand, high hills and deep
forests, is now on a verge of finish.
Today it is just below Everest, tomorrow definitely we
will conquer it.
Is it a natural case or a man made one?
Through I don’t have the statistics, to compare, but
surely one who has will definitely say no, it’s not a natural one.
A very hot climate
can result a few cases, undoubtedly, but not up to this count.
Then what could be the reason of that?
When government needs land, it acquires it.
When industrialist need they also acquires it, through
government agencies or privately.
But when a developer requires land, they use slightly
different method.
If a developer accompanied by goons and mafia requires
land, then there will be no end of nuisance created by them to acquire land; as
they will break all chains to get their hands on whatever they want.
Something like this is happening here also.
Mafia those involved timber black marketing had build
nexus with villagers who owns the forest land, burn the forest and let the
trees die. Once done, the wood itself can bring thousands of crores.
Then the villagers sell it to developers who want to
build hotels and resorts to attract tourists.
But my dear Mafia friends, the Nature with pleasant
weather are the only things that attract people to go to these places.
I have has nothing
new to say or write, once forest is destroyed or gutted in fire, forget the
rain. And without heavy rains, you can’t dream a pleasant weather. What do you
people think; this fire which is around 90 days old has no impact on the
Himalayas? In coming years we, who are not responsible of this act, shall
surely hear the music of what you playing today on your orchestra.
They are forced to a very unnatural and painful death.
If 300 died in Kollam Temple fire of Kerala few days ago,
results in news headline. We pay homage to him, sympathy visit his or her
family. It was become a national debatable issue. The whole of social media was
fuelled by that news only. Take the example of Augusta Westland. Switch on any
news channel on your television set, and update yourself with that news. Today
switch on your TV set; you will hear that six died in this fire.
But what about them?
They are not our family member.
We don’t have any relations with them.
Why should we worry about them?
We venture forest for fun.
When we see an animal, never seen before, we clap in
excitement and snap them and a big wall paper decorates our drawing room. It
gives testimony of our affection towards animals.
The country is facing one of the worst droughts with
water crisis in many states, and Latur is in limelight and no rain in
sight.
Is it a natural
calamity?
One may blame it on nature but we all know how much we
are ourselves are responsible for this.
Nothing new to write, without Jungals, no Paani,
and without Paani no Jiwan.
Army has been pressed into services to doge the fire.
They will succeed, pray for their early success.
Thousands of acres of forest have been lost.
‘N numbers of animals and insects are charred.
We are too much busy in ourselves.
We had inherited a beautiful nature. Whether we shall
leave anything heritable for our children?
Builders, please Forgive us.
We are too poor.
We have not much of the Jungals left.
Please leave us alone with what is still left.
We shall treat it as a gift from you.(Author: Ramesh Kumar Jajoo
