Dear amma,acha,sahodran and sahodri.. i write this post with a deep agony and hurt, i have been seeing WAR of WORDS between two states of southern most India, Tamil nadu and Kerala. some years ago we were together as a single state and we were all wearing veshti(Dhoti).
Still we are together under the LABEL Indian and HUMAN, Being from Tamil nadu i am fond of puttu and Mohanlal is one of my favorite star. I know and have very best keralite friends who are fond of Tamil things too, honestly i never see keralite,Telugu and Kannada's as aliens, few of my Keralite friends are rising anti Tamil slogans in recent times and it is spreading viral over the net.
Mullaiperiyar Dam is the issue, Water is a national property and SAFETY is HUMAN basic right, we need each others support to survive peacefully, why fighting like kinder garden kids ? like involving in SPAT ? calling keralites as cunning and Tamilian as stupid ?
Don't get emotional with your words, it will easily hurt hearts, Politicians will do anything to gain votes, not to wonder even if the bifurcate or triplicate India. we have to understand and kerala with higher literacy rate, you people must certainly understand the issue. few people are involved in spreading a panic among people which will definitely affect the integrity.
Media wants news so they will publish again and again in the favor of their own state, we should and we must understand what is true and what is wrong ??
If i have a authority, i will allow Kerala to build a new dam for sure and will never compromise on people's safety.
For building a dam and to gain votes, i will not panic people for sure.
Why Kerala is so concerned all of a sudden ? Tamil nadu holds the authority for THAT DAM, i dono what agreement it is and i don't wanna know, all that i want is peace and integrity inside India and importantly Harmony.
If that dam is really safe(i dono), why kerala still needs an another dam,, This is the view from TN side, proposed dam will benefit with very less amount of water than existing one and all control will be handed over to kerala, which is the main reason behind sudden uproar.
All that i ask and request, Don't indulge against our integrity and don't involve in SPAT, i have been seeing this is on several sites, TN and Keralites scolding each other, this is ridiculous.
We are commoners, we can't do anything by fighting, TWO GOVERNMENT must sit and talk, then only the barriers will break.
Til then watch your words Chetta and Chechi's and watch your words Anna and Akka :)
At the end of the day, we are all Indians :) a life is a life everywhere and in every language and alike that Human is a human everywhere, you may call malayali or tamilian but still we are human, BEHAVE PROPERLY you are in God's own country, i am an agonistic person and i believe god(if he is alive) will not involve in SPAT and Brawls..behave properly we are in TAMIL NADU, land known for its Hospitality...
Importantly DONT ADD PICTURES VULGAR COMMENTS WITHOUT KNOWING ANYTHING, IF YOU DON'T KNOW, JUST DON'T ARGUE FOR GOD SAKE !
Very very importantly, stop abusing each others !!!!

well written post . . but then i guess you need to dig more into the safety thing you outrightly deny as baseless . . reports by people at the helm prove otherwise..hope proper discussions bring about the much needed ceasefire so that the future would look less bleak . .
ReplyDeletep.s : Mohanlal is my fav actor :)though puttu is one kerala dish i dont relish that much . .
@MALINY:) yeah, safety comes first...BUT USELESS PEOPLE SPREADING USELESS PANIC AMONG KERALA, DAM IS SAFE SAYS REPORT AND STILL POLITICIANS PLAYS GAME and DAM 999 is a film whichi affects our integrity :)
ReplyDeleteP:S- MOHANLAL,SURESH GOPI,MAMOOTY :) :) KAVYA MADHAVAN TOO :P

I couldn't help but comment on ths post DK. First I cant understand why Dam 999 had to be banned in your state coz that movie hardly shows the dam for 10 minutes!!It's all about everything else except the dam!!
ReplyDeleteSecond- I agree with you that the states need not be on war with one another so long as there is no immediate threat to the damn. However, tomorrow if the dam breaks then what?! Yes you may question why it should break now when it hasn't for sooo many years..the earthquakes there are bcoz of the dam itself. The more water it holdsthe more chances of a quake of larger magnitude and the more chances of the dam breaking!!
@madoutther:) first of all thanks for commenting a amtured way, which most of the people lacks..
ReplyDeleteDAM 999 is a film, people have right to express their views, this film is based on a short films, WHICH TELLS ABOUT THE STORY OF DAM DISASTER, it indirectly threatens people and creates a fear,panic among them and people here feel that this film will disrupt our integrity.
THIS FILM has also got support from gulf countries and it indirectly pushes TN as man slaughters !
Kerala is mislead with this panic, main motto of kerala politicians is to abolish the control of TN over the dam, which is in lease for 999 years, thats why DAM 999, but that director cleverly says that as DATE !
a tiny section of the people indulge in such activities. we cannot do much about it. u r doing ur bit, spread the love :D.
ReplyDeleteNice post. You are right pointing that panicking won't do any good. But there is one thing I don't agree that is "main motto of kerala politicians is to abolish the control of TN over the dam, which is in lease for 999 years"
ReplyDeleteIt would be against reason, b'coz TN is paying Kerala tax for all these years for using the land and the electricity generated from it. So if what you think they are doing is creating some panic situation, it won't make any sense. Kerala Govt. is getting a nice amount as tax.
Well, I agree with you on the fact that both the states need to sit talk and work out a solution. I also agree that people/politicians of both the states fighting/abusing each other on this issue is absolutely madness and should never happen.
ReplyDeleteBut what I disagree is on your statment of "NOT TO PANIC".
The issue is pretty serious my dear friend:
Under a Dam made of lime stone and surkhi (burnt brick powder + sugar + calcium oxide)
- with a life span of 50 years,
- that is 160 years old as of this year,
- that survived a quake in the 1971, with cracks that lead to lowering of water level,
- Currently situated in a seismically active zone,
- With a CESS report of not in condition to withstand a quake of 6 on ritcher,
- With a quake record of 4.5 on ritcher in 1988 and disaster just 25 Km from the dam,
- With multiple tremors at that site in the recent past,
- with an expert conclusion of reservoir-induced seismicity,
how do we expect the people to not panic sleep peacefully?

@mist and at LEO:
ReplyDeleteEvery view has its own + and - . But what were the politicians doing so far ??
Today i read an article from a Malayalee Humanitarian who refused to join the rage, he said " Kerala politicians are misleading people, main reason could be the BY election which decides the future of your assembly, if congress looses it and it will be a hanging assembly, by making promises of new dam they are trying to lure voters, this is what with communists too, IF EVERY ONE THINKS WHAT HAPPENS IF THE FAN FALLS DOWN< NONE CAN SLEEP !
Well-written!!
ReplyDeleteBut one thing is there, we can't predict anything...its Mother nature who decides everything.Lets pray for the best
