West should know more than Greta from these Indian examples


The west and educated elite from the world especially the Indian intellectuals
should know and feel proud of these female tree/environment protectors.
They are not as educated or as rich as Greta living in Internet age with Climate crisis.

1. 363 Bishnoi who sacrificed life in protecting trees being cut by a local ruler in Rajasthan
in 1730AD led by Bishnoi women Amrita Devi and her three daughters who got killed by hugging trees being cut.

“ Inspired by their example, other Bishnoi (from a total of 84 different villages) continuously took their place until, in an event that would come to be known as the Khejarli Massacre, 363 Bishnoi had sacrificed their lives in defense of their trees.”

What happens if a mosque is vandalized or church in India

See the contrast. What will seculars and left would have done if a mosque or church is vandalized. Where did this happen? In Delhi. What will happen if this temple is in a Muslim majority area of India.  It would have been even not reported, as no body would have dared. Does any body what happened to a case in Telengana where a old priest is murdered in the temple by a neighborhood Muslim Imam. Has it become major news and major lynching incident for worry of all intellectuals? The imam was proclaimed temporary insanity https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/delhi/central-delhis-hauz-qazi-tense-after-brawl-over-parking-temple-vandalised/articleshow/70028826.cms https://www.indiatoday.in/india/story/telangana-priest-dies-after-being-allegedly-assaulted-by-imam-over-using-loudspeaker-1381038-2018-11-02

An example for increasing Agri sector economy and farmers income

Due to favorable weather, good soil, long standing farming culture, decent availability of water/rainfall, India can produce, process and many food products. See the following example of Potato French Fry exports from Gujarat. Similarly we can export Tomatoes and Tomato products. Similarly we can export lettuce. We can export yougurt based products. We can export frozen onion rings instead of just onions. Another example is if  Continental Coffee in coastal delta village Duggirala produces freeze dried coffee powder and milk coffee sugar ready drink powder, we can easily add value in agri processing and export for many products. https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/ahmedabad/gujarat-drives-indias-french-fries-export/articleshow/73718505. cms

Even today, the Gandhi family is the only fulcrum of the Congress

See the way Congress party thinks ; not just Congress party even many journalists and secular intellectuals think the same. Nobody is able to say Congress a party with 120+ years of history has many presidents and leaders and has ideology commitment and many followers and so any one other than Nehru-Indira-Feroz Ghandy family can be Congress leader to lead and revive. See the attachment to the dynasty and the name Gandhi. Not much emphasis and confidence on the party and ideology. https://m.rediff.com/news/interview/gandhi-family-is-the-only-fulcrum-of-the-congress/20190701.htm
