Document Summary
The sardar sarovar dam has drawn the nation"s attention to it. This returns to the point i made in the previous entry about how so called experts" are making. Reading #11: the greater common good or how it works but it still holds very passionate feelings and thoughts towards it. This because the government has made it about more than just the dam (which is already expected to displace many people). It has become about who owns the land, the rivers, and so on. Both sides think they are looking out for the greater good of india and spin things to look better their way. decisions that are affecting vast communities but the results are hardly seen. To me it appears the same thing is happening here. The dams are being built with helping people in mind (and of course with other reasons) but it"s severely failing to take into account the perspective of the people living there.
