Take ecology seriously

Tinkering with the fragile mountain ecosystem isn't a safe option

Even the Puri Shankaracharya Jagadguru Swami Nischalananda Saraswati advised against incessant damming of rivers

As did other well meaning environmentalists and researchers 1/n

This is not to say that development projects shouldn't be carried out

Long term research and studies should back all projects

Sadly we don't invest in human capital and then cry over brain drain and other bs

There also comes the point of 'not' well meaning NGOs and maleficent activists who are paid by anti Hindu/Bharat forces to subvert any development

The trick is in detecting malice and listening to voices that genuinely care for the ecology and the local people

Char Dham isn't a picnic spot it is a tērtha stān, developing direct high ways means you're inviting more and more gas guzzling vehicles to pollute the environment even more

Work out annual limits on people visiting there

4/n

Enable people moving out of the hills to set up businesses so that they're not just dependent upon tourism

Keep portions of the ecology untouched, it is out duty as environmentally conscious people as well as dharmic and indic people

It is dharma to care of Prakruti

5/n

Promoting blind consumerism and industrialism in ecologically sensitive areas will only lead to more 2013-like calamities

Let Dharma educate us and modern research be our guide

Let us save the Himalayas from the grips of ungrounded development goals

6/n

Yes, it is hypocritical when a person from the plains with no #sitg says this

BUT

Prakriti's well being is enumerated foremost in our dharmic duties we must not shy away from them in any way

I hope Dharma guides our laws, constitution and public morality

7/n

Without the Environment we cannot live and the paid stooge of the left Greta Thunberg shouldn't be the one to teach you this, your own roots do
