#maharashtra — Public Fediverse posts

I just want to say - in context of the recent upsurge in videos about violence in Maharashtra. We need to stop blaming "outsiders" here.

Lately, I've come across that Nashik incident of a family in their car, a cab driver in Pune, and a man assaulting a women on the tracks in Mumbai. All were natives, presumably, from what the information online says.

"Outsiders" is the most convenient target - and I've experienced being ostracised because of that here. It's crazy in #maharashtra

Anyone from #Maharashtra want to be an official member of the prav cooperative ?

Join at https://prav.app/become-a-member/

We had reached required 50 numbers once, but some people dropped out later.

So we only have 46 members now and need 50 to register as multi state cooperative.

Other states are welcome too, but you will have to wait longer till your state reaches 50.

#Kerala has the required minimum of 50 already, but more members makes us stronger.

Why trains ?

This slow-mo video is a small glimpse why ?

Door open, hot wind in the face & air) sometimes good smells sometimes not so great smells.

But passing a landscape allows one a good idea of what is there and what is happening.

One can also imagine being in such a landscape.

Note around the 28 second mark a Solar PV panel set up, near a well. Likely a Solar energy based pump.

Maharashtra’s municipal corporation polls reinforce what the 2024 assembly elections already showed: the BJP is the state’s clear political pole, with room to pressure allies. INC, meanwhile, looks increasingly marginal in state politics. Today’s Number Theory unpacks the results.

#SEZs in #India: Balancing Economic Growth and #Environmental Concerns

July 27, 2024

"Picture this: vast stretches of industrial land buzzing with activity, modern factories producing goods for global markets, and thousands of job opportunities emerging overnight. This is the promise of Special Economic Zones (SEZs) in India. But behind this gleaming facade lies a complex web of environmental challenges and social concerns that demand our attention. SEZs represent one of India’s most ambitious economic policies, designed to accelerate industrial growth and boost exports, yet they often come at a significant cost to the environment and local communities.

[...]

"[T]he rapid expansion of SEZs has raised significant environmental red flags. The most pressing concern is land acquisition, which often involves converting fertile agricultural land into industrial zones. This conversion not only reduces the country’s agricultural capacity but also disrupts local ecosystems and biodiversity.

"The establishment of SEZs typically requires large tracts of land – sometimes spanning thousands of acres. Much of this land is acquired from agricultural areas, leading to the displacement of farming communities who have depended on these lands for generations. For instance, the proposed #RaigadSEZ in #Maharashtra would have required over 14,000 hectares of #agricultural land, leading to massive #protests from local farmers.

"The conversion of agricultural land to #IndustrialUse has long-term implications for #FoodSecurity. As India’s population continues to grow, the loss of productive #farmland could exacerbate food shortage issues in the future. Moreover, agricultural land often has better soil quality and water retention capacity compared to industrial land, making this conversion environmentally costly.

"Industrial activities within SEZs generate various forms of #pollution. Air pollution from #manufacturing processes, water #contamination from industrial effluents, and #SoilDegradation from chemical usage are common problems. The concentration of industries in SEZs can create pollution hotspots that affect air and water quality in surrounding areas.

"#WaterScarcity is another critical issue. SEZs require substantial water resources for industrial processes, often competing with local communities for this precious resource. In water-stressed regions, this competition can lead to conflicts and further environmental degradation.
Human rights and social displacement

"The human cost of SEZ development cannot be overlooked. Land acquisition for SEZs often involves displacing local communities, particularly small farmers and agricultural workers. These communities frequently receive inadequate compensation and struggle to find alternative livelihoods.

"The displacement process can be traumatic for local communities who have strong cultural and emotional ties to their land. Traditional occupations like #farming, #fishing, and #SmallScaleTrading are disrupted, forcing people to adapt to entirely new economic realities. The promised employment opportunities in SEZs often don’t materialize for displaced communities, as they may lack the required skills for industrial jobs.

"Women in these communities face particular challenges, as they often have limited access to alternative employment opportunities and may lose traditional income sources like kitchen gardening or small-scale agricultural activities. The social fabric of rural communities can be severely disrupted, leading to increased poverty and social inequality."
