A verdict to control mother nature!!
We all know water is the basic need of human being. Our basic instinct is survival of the fittest. But the challenge to test our fitness is something that happens naturally.
But after roaming millions of years in this earth and evolving to such a level of advance medical and scientific development, still we are lacking something basic. We are losing our basic nature which classifies us as human being, empathy.
What is our value, culture, race and education system doing to us. Are we driving violence and selfishness through these change mediums?. The recent cauvery river verdict by supreme court kindled wide spectrum of thoughts in me.
We all know language, race, culture, state and everything else tangible is created for our own benefits and comfort. Now we are using it to kill, coerce, fight, destroy each other. Can we ask one basic question to get a simple answer to this issue?. My basic question is this - which is our basic need water or culture and language?.
Our judiciary body had also failed in clarifying this point to ignorant public. It has umpired this nasty fight for a natural resource and its verdict is further disappointing considering the ambiguous basis for discriminating water supply levels to concerned states.
With advent of social media and ubiquitous press influence we are mastering our skill to attribute a general need as a loss of only one section of people. Are farmers the only section that will suffer from water? No it is everybody!! Even the dead needs water to complete final rituals.
It is totally appalling to see aggresive protestors burning celebrity photos, erasing language signs from public boards, hurting individuals just because they speak other language. What is the example we are creating for our younger generation? Is our world livable with this kind of happening? I am nowhere directly affected by this verdict or problem and i am sure most people reading this is also not affected. But we all should worry on two things that is far more worse for our future generations. Live and let live...!! Other things should take a back seat.
Today we fight for water with language as base, tomorrow if nature decides to fight we all will be under its feet no matter what language we speak !!
