1. CORPORATE PLUNDERING AND RESPONSIBILITIES
This is said that before the appearance of mother industries, alike cement, jute, steel, coal
and other minerals, most of our elders used to talk, eat, think and dance to the tunes of nature
and natural elements.
Now a day’s Indian social stratification start with the load of worries how to save them and
ended the days with a hope of sustainable attitudes those maintained, nurtured and cultivated
by our fore fathers. The rulers of colonial period were the initiator of corporate plundering
throughout the four corners of our land. Need makes a man adjustable, whereas greed makes
us corrupt and corruption invite destruction. There is no iota of doubt Factories like
TISCO,TELO,JINDAL,MUNJALS or Reliance came into operative shape after indiscriminate
culling of centurion aged trees and by aborting the elements those were capable enough to
control and balance our ecological system, more aptly than which provided through modern
technologies, more over the latest techno base industries have been brought before us not to
serve the masses rather favorite customers who love to abort the wealth in the form comforts
from a country, populate with less than 10,000 rupees per month as reported in the latest
survey. It has also been observed that majority of corporations don’t want to follow the
minimum prescribed norms in order to keep a balancing atmosphere even after pre operative
disastrous activities caused a demographic changes in almost every part of our society .Today
the entire gamut of responsibility of every manufacturing unit is how to keep the environ free
from polluting spots and to provide a dignified life to affected inhabitants, who loved to regard
the sentiments o f nature and the elements surrounded but buried safely not aborted in such a
greed full manner which compel to face natural as well as silent disaster to the entire
mankind, the irony of the plundering is that the locality far from such operation are also been
affected under dire consequences, what actually have already been faced by not the
inhabitants of plain land but by the hill areas also.
Another responsibility as part of social responsibility, mostly top listed manufacturing don’t
want to follow is non appointment of women directors in their board and less participation of
working force in the decision making process.
Though India produces less volume of polluting agents and cement inferior category of
greenhouse gases in a environ already polluted at alarming rate but we as an ordinary citizen
don’t know how to co pup with the problems and convert our lives free of load and worries
what enjoyed by industrialized nationals.
The latest report has shown P.S.Us especially Rail, BHEL and SAIL don’t bother to comply with
the guidelines what should have been reflected in their pre and post operative process andhalf
of the children who are adding the growth of 122 crore of entire population strength are taking
birth with a diseases like asthma, mitochondria, kidney failure or with lower vision capability,
even less hair rather bald headed form.
The form of disaster are vivid in kind, apart from manufacturing units, agriculture, mining,
explorations and wood industry including illegal poaching and tobacco companies are equally
responsible for climate change and global warming.
2. Being a citizen this is our foremost duty to send them intimation either follow or perish. The
task of adheres are not an easy in the land where 90% people still hunting for accommodation,
clothes and food and where 90% women don’t want to participate in such a crushed which
could give us an healthy wealthy and wise living styles without confronting with natural,
manmade and silent disaster.
Therefore our country and Indian society badly expecting a change in the prevailing scenario
and change in the attitudes of the corporate owner those have directly been involved and
engaged in imbalancement of not the system, profession , character and demand of the
community but by challenging the system of traditional ecology as well. By avoiding the
presence of womanhood and ignoring the presence of workers in the midst of operative
system they are creating sin and gifted us a locality possibly not fit to next generation.
The diseases like, alzimers, nervous breakdown, cardiac and receptors problems attribution
of our manufacturing units who don’t want to fulfill the commitment of social responsibility.
The arsenic related skin cancer or lower vision, less hair or inferior growth have become a
common feature and we are in a hope 24x7 hours electricity , water supply, employability,
refreshment or creativeness through proposed smart city could bring a fresh air in our society.
But the moot question is when the entire atmosphere is in bleak, working conditions are in
exploitative situation and people below the 6 age group are suffering from problems caused by
corporate plunders then by whom proposed ideas would be utilized and enjoyed as smartly as
drummed around suffers!
Aggressive corporate plundering is essential to improve the qualities of basic amenities,
transportation, education (elementary in particular), non availability of potable water and
chemical based fertilizer eatables have made our lives, more hellish than those are dwelling
without uninterrupted electricity or medical facility. Aggressive approaches, war footing
manner could only save us from further destruction. And finally what I would like to request
don’t kill a single water body of your locality because it functions as same a kidney does in
our body.
This is the high time to only raise the voice but fingers as well which unfortunately kept
crossed decade after decade.
