Our North karnataka is flooding
Our land with black soil, famous in growing jowar, maize, groundnut, sugarcane is now drown in water. we are homeless, we lost our beloved ones, grains saved in the home for food are washed away, our buffaloes, oxen drowned out, we don’t have money, our fields are filled with water, and our crops were destroyed.
This is current story of our people and of our land of north Karnataka.
I seen times of India paper, where headline is about cricket, and the news about flood is given in fourth or fifth, does cricket values are more important than our farmers life?
And about MLA's, MP's and Minister's of our place, they get vote from our village, but once elected ,settle in Bangalore and enjoy with film actresses, and forget about the villagers, who elected them.
Our coalition government (BJP and JD), struggling since two months, and making meeting over meetings, just to transfer the power to another coalition partner. Since that time, no developments activities, Even if, it transfers power also, there will be no development, because most of heading party politicians time will be taken to maintain stability between the coalition government, and supporters politicians time will be taken to pull the legs of heading politicians. All of them just need power and money.
When Supreme Court declared more water from Cauvery to Tamil nadu, all politicians made a fuss, all people of Karnataka, came on the roads and protested, but our area is getting affected by floods continuously since three years, nobody is there to care for it.
During summer, Our river Bhima will become dry as cricket ground, as Maharashtra government will store all the water in the their dams, And during rainy season, our homes and land will get drowned, because Maharashtra government release all the water, which was stored in summer. Strikes will happen, just if we release one drop extra to Tamil nadu from Cauvery, but what about us, we are not getting any water at all, even if we get water, it will create floods.
When 100 projects will sanctioned from Karnataka government, 70-75 projects will be for Bangalore, remaining will for whole Karnataka,
Don’t our politician’s know that Karnataka is hundred times bigger than Bangalore?
Don’t our goverment know that Karnataka population is hundred times larger than Bangalore population?
Are we not the people of Karnataka or India?
Don’t we have a right to live happy life?
When Tsunami occured, so many NGO's and other people of from all over India, visited, donated and helped for affected people, But when we are getting affected, our so called people who had grown in this place are acting like blind, they have more curiosity in the watching T20 cricket then our life.
News channel have more interest in showing which VIP or which actresses wearied what color of dress in the super-star marriages. They dont have time to show the real problems of common people.
But the we(people themselves called as software engineers and feel there are on top of world, who always sit in the AC, who cannot survive without internet, who always want to spend his weekends in Malls, pizzahut, and mutliplex) claims ,ourselves as from north Karnataka, and currently living in Bangalore, do nothing for our place.
We feel, the only reason, we have took birth on earth, is to do bug fixing and testing and providing support to west. we don’t have other moral or social responsibilities to towards our people.
We grown in north Karnataka, we ate food grown by our farmers; we studied in school, colleges which are established by our people. but now we are serving to other countries, sitting nicely in other parts of world. I agree with the fact that, it is time of globalization, if we need to develop our country, we need to be in global market, but it doesn't mean that we need to forget our people. We are much more interested in living US and UK, and forgotten the villages of ancestors.
The society in which, we have grown is facing problem, now it’s our responsibility to help them. if we are now in financial in batter position, means it is effort of our family and of our society. Now its time to bring them in good position.
We just blame on others, put our social responsibility on others. We blame politicians, government officers, business mans for exploiting our society.
But what we have did?
What can done at the minimum by us for flood: collect your old clothes, raise a funds, visit to villages where flood got affected, encourage them, help them to establish their home again.
I apologize myself, that I am claiming myself north kannadian but not as kannadian, the only reason behind is the socio-economical imbalance created between these places by our system.
