Ignorance and greed leads to such calamity, as in Uttarakhand.


The two signs “ignorance- (the most common) and the greed (at the top)” desolate and despair human from other existing race in the universe.  Though of social and technical advanced, ignorance in the 21st century is our choice. It is not necessary to mention that the consequences of the ignorance, as one must have come through the recent unveiling scenario of the Uttarakhand. 


In spite of reacting on the alerts provided by the meteorological department, our politicians and higher authorities were engaged in framing one-man ship on the issue. However we know that the natural calamities cannot be avoided but it can be tackled, if we are well prepared and well equipped.  But most of the times we fail to do so. The recent calamity in the kedarnath shows how well prepared we are. 


The heavy death toll rate is only due to the ignorance. If our brother and sister would have alerted before the disaster, then they would have prevented themselves from the ravage of the flood.  Though of helping the victims of the disaster, none of a single state representative participated in the campaign, the entire rescue operation was covered by our nation hero’s in uniform.  

Apart from the ignorance, human needs and greeds too helped in such fragile scenario. The need of comfort, luxury has grazed all the humanity from the man. Though we know that senseless planning, haphazard development and deforestation erode the soil, as a result landslides and floods can be the outcome during heavy rain. But “who cares for the nature and the ecosystem, we are the one and can play with god” is the thinking of the generous people. The greed of the man does not see any barrier. Liquors, Hookahs, and massive construction near to the holy place will result in such heavy death toll rate.

Unless and until we care for the nature, there will be always such outcomes.  It is a cruel remainder from the nature regarding how our nation is incapacitate against natural calamity and what would be the consequences of man greed.
