Protests against land acquisition

The acquisition of land from the poor is more than the issue of adequate compensation. Their way of life and livelihood for the next generation is not considered. When land is taken away fro a farmer, not only you take away his livelihood, you take away his children's way to livelihood too. Because good education and good careers are not there for the rural poor; land is all that they have. This was not thought about. "we want development, and we want industries" but at whose cost?People(natives) should become the stake holders because they are the "real owners" They had been dependent on the produce of the land.And now they are in search of clean drinking water, food and livelihoods.They cannot be nomadic for ever and they need a  place to stay.

Land Acquisition Bill

The land acquisition Bill has been passed in the Lower House(Lok Sabha) of the Parliament. But with many walk outs, there is question that it was not representative. The clauses and amendments cannot alter the fact that, it is unfair to the poor. Those who are forced to sell their land do not get adequate compensation. All that these people have is their land. If they loose this then they become impoverished unskilled labor class. This truth cannot be hidden by any amendment. The Bill any case has been passed, it will go to the Upper House(Rajya Sabha) to become law(if passed)
While fighting this bill the other parties against the majority(BJP) have aligned.Thus, the opposition has been formed.

Need to know History

We must know the history of India, because it is our identity..who we are. We a people with rich cultural heritage. This is evident from the innumerable monuments present today. The land and its people have evolved together to make a huge cultural nation that is India. Because of living in the Indian subcontinent cut-off from the rest of the world, we had evolved our own culture and religions... Jainism, Buddhism and Hinduism.
Human species here had settled in the Indus river valley 3000 B.C. We got uprooted because of climate change--200 years long drought. Vedic India emerged in 1750 to 50 BC because second urbanization came about. People settled in fertile plains between the Ganges River systems.In Indo Gangetic plains came about the Vedic Age 1750 BC on wards. There were 16 different dynasties and their kingdoms. Shramana movements gave rise to Jainism and Buddism. Upanishads came about at the same time. Magadha empire was evolving. Mauryan empire came in 322 till 185 BC.Classic period came about as Sunga empire, Satavahana empire and Kushna empires solidified. Then came the Golden Age of the Guptas 320 to 650 AD when Hinduism and Buddism spread all over the continent. There were struggles between Gujrat-Pratiharas, Rashtrakutas and Pala empires. This was between eighth and tenth centuries. Islamic intrusions started with invasions, plunders and massacres. Delhi Sultanate eastablished themselves between 1206 till 1526. Meanwhile in other parts there were Chalukyas, Vijayanagara empire(14th till16th),Chola(9th to 13th) Hoysala Kingdom(12-14),Pandya(13-14).Then Muslim rule under Mughals came to rule India from 1674 till 1857. Last Mughal emperor was imprisoned by British and India became part of British Empire(after East India Company came). In 1947, we became a free nation and we have prospered since the last 68 years.

History of India is relevant today because we do not want to repeat it. we need to keep up with development in the West
