Shouldn't we care more about our Country -1

Do others worry more about our country than us?

The French government has been trying to find a place to dismantle its 40 year old defence ship which can cause incalculable damage to the environment because of the high amount of asbestos in the ship's parts. Having been refused by many countries like Italy and Spain, it has finally managed "to persuade" the Indian government to accept to do the job in return for a price. The ship is coming to Gujarat to be destroyed and in the process destroy Gujarat as well. Meanwhile, the people of France have filed a case in their court against their government's decision to send it to India. Their suggestion- it has to be scientifically destroyed so that the environment is not harmed. Burning asbestos can release deadly noxious gases which have been known to cause asbestosis and other diseases including cancer, apart from polluting the atmaosphere. They argued that a country's ship can only be destroyed in that country. But the case was closed in the pretext that it was only applicable for civilian ships and not defence ships. With no other option, the French decided to come to India and explain the dangers to the deciding committee.The innocent French thought that we weren't aware of the dangers and like they were the ones laying out the facts. They came at their own expense only to return back failing to convince the committee which comprised the Union Ministers including the Defence minister.

Meanwhile, There is a strong opposition by the Air Force authorities of India that the life of officers in the Air Force has not been depicted in the correct manner in Aamir Khan's latest movie. To resolve this issue it has been decided that the Union Defence minister will watch the movie and judge whether it can be shown in theatres all over the country!!!!!

Coming back to this issue, even the central environmental minister,who is a DMK minister, has not taken any action. In fact, he doesn't seem to care about it. But he has enough time to fight against the local government's "Desalination of seawater" plan, that there aren't any provisions to dump the effluents of the desalination plant and it would pollute the sea if it was let into it. Aw c'mon.....countries like Kuwait and the other middle eastern countries are doing just that to produce drinking water and they seem to be doing fine.

Around two years back, the same thing happened when Denmark sent one of its old ships to India to dismantle and there too Gujarat was chosen for the job. It created a huge damage to the surrounding areas. But what do the MPs care? Sitting at the Rashtrapathi Bhavan in Delhi, they seem to be just making money out of this. Poor French.......thinking they could convince us into denying the proposal. The kick they got in their butts landed them straight back in France. "We know how to save ourselves. So would you please mind your own business. Thank you. Goodbye."
