The greens are going. Tis the colour of skirmish critters called environ activists, there is a corporal identify associated with them to being leftists, a cold blooded anti capitalist and of all they are looked down as “are these critters the only saviors of this earth”, Thou I don’t belong to any green brigade as such, but I am obviously concerned about the fallouts of implosive developmental activities happening in and around the Nilgiri Biosphere Reserve. In as many casual chats I have with friends one ends up touching the environmental issues daunting the Nilgiris. And invariably it boils down to green brigade bashing, which which made me ponder over the generic psychic of people inhabiting the Nilgiris. Is it only few jug heads like me go thumping around to protect the environment. It is the way commoner think as what impact a lil violation here n there does to the ecosystem, if the violations happened to get questioned they get petrified and throw tantrums a galore. “See even XYZ did the same thing and they got away with it, why only it has to be us”? “The ABC in the green brigade should have put this on to the department they are the jealous lot, they just cannot digest us being happy.”
Coming again to the greens it may be obvious that the greens pulled up their sleeves and got their hands dirty with ulterior motives be it as simple as to get some noise going to get noticed or may be as pretentious with commercial intent by and large there are souls out there gasping at the environmental time bomb, genuine or pretentious the greater common good should prevails and if a mile long is walked for this cause, it is the very cause that gets to gain. So think them to be fascist , critter or creeps the mile is jolly well walked…..
It is an introspective
journey,
blossomed thru my iris
that filled
Nilgiris of every nook
and corners I roamed,
a metamorphosis that
made me feel for
the every feeble grass
blades that vanished
from the rolling meadows
that made of
my Nilgiris,
grandeurs of it is ranges,
the blue plumage of their
mountains
defaced in reckless irony
now where will my Thar go?
a humble yearning that made
me divulge in climate change,
conservation et al
thus
bringing forth a desire,
A burning desire! asking ME
and every one of
YOU?
WHY
WHY shouldn’t
NILGIRIS be SAVED?
