See the very serious nature of the situation at
https://sundarban2012.blogspot.com/2013/02/the-sundarban-in-2012-through-bnhs.html
And the relevant extract:
THE HOLISTIC REALITY OF THE SUNDARBAN AND KUDANKULAM IDENTICAL!
For a poignant infinitely painful account of the holistic reality of the Sundarbans, see
Jalais, Annu. (2005). "Dwelling on Morichjhanpi: When Tigers Became
‘Citizens’, Refugees ‘Tiger-Food’"; Economic and Political Weekly, April
23 2005, pp. 1757 – 1762. Link:

This was written before the net was working. But what Sundarban has
gone through administratively can only be described as Infinite Human
Tragedy made by Infinitely Poor Governance.
Perfect designs are those which allow you to design around the Unknowable. Nuclear programmes, dams and in fact modern civilisation transgress rudely this principle driven by greed. We reap what others sow: The Three Mile Islands, the Chernobyls, the Fukushimas and others on the drawing board. Dams cumulatively by direct heating up of the earth cause earthquakes and tsunamies and climate change. Live contented with what you can do without perfect mass murders by realising you are part of nature.

The Indian Express is really selectively practicing Journalism of Courage
Why is the Indian Express as from today preventing my computer from the comments section?
See the screenshot of the paper:
When I press the comment button it does not respond. This is happening from today 21 Feb 2019
Cowardice exhibited by Indian Express by banning citizens from commenting
But the Indian Express must stop practicing Apartheid on its readers. For instance, it has blocked my computer from accessing the comments via its comment button. It must realise that it is nothing more than a registered newspaper and hence must respect the constitutional right of its citizens to express themselves.
