That old game theory from the prisoner's dilemma makes Mouldy Modi 'fast' while Medha does the real thing. informed citizens need to go one step further than just being informed. The truth is at the grassroots. Diffuse complications by defining the core. The only ones on the farmer's side are the NBA, and antics aside (what else works in this country of ratyatras and fatwas?) the truth is that if the farmer's do get justice it will be only due to NBA's efforts.<BR/><BR/>While raising the dam can help in both conserving and controlling water, the flip side of further displacement of people from their native lands and the even worse danger of sales of water to greedy corporations (read the latest frontline) makes this issue moot.George Supreethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12812236105806812644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7680226.post-1145878637855247062006-04-24T17:07:00.001+05:302006-04-24T17:07:00.001+05:30corrigendum: the name above should read Nafisa Ali...corrigendum: the name above should read Nafisa Ali and not Nafisa Joseph.

However, call me a pessimist or a cynic, I am yet to have confidence on our babus and politicians to effectively manage such a high profile project. I am not with the National Bakwaas Association (NBA) guys, but if somebody is making such a big hue and cry then it definitely requires some consideration. There is a possibility that farmers have not got their compensation or maybe the land for land compensation would be some barren untillable land. Let’s take the time to reassess and give people what is genuinely due. I guess that’s the only way to stop Nafisa Ali and Medha Pathkar's idiosyncrasies.
