&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;Experts say that the narrative that a country must choose between environment and development itself is wrong.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Merely days after the fatal landslide in Kerala&amp;rsquo;s Pettimudi in Idukki district in August last year, the spotlight was back on the Gadgil report on the Western Ghats. The report, submitted to the government of India in 2011, had designated the Pettimudi region among the most sensitive ecological zones in the Western Ghats and recommended avoiding construction of any roads, buildings or flattening of land using heavy machinery.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;It is an oft-noticed pattern that in the immediate aftermath of any disaster in ecologically sensitive regions, the attention first goes to an earlier report on the region, if any. For example, after the Kerala landslide of 2019, several media articles pointed to the three important reports that called for the expeditious conservation of the Western Ghats &amp;ndash; the Gadgil report, Kasturirangan report and Oommen V Oommen report &amp;ndash; none of which was implemented in Kerala. More recently, after the flash floods in Uttarakhand&amp;rsquo;s Chamoli district, attention has been drawn to a 2019 study that spoke in-depth about the rapidly melting glaciers in the Himalayan region based on data spanning 40 years. These reports usually indicate how sensitive that particular region is and have recommendations about being extremely cautious in opening up the region for developmental activities like construction of roads, buildings, dams, etc. However, it is also normal that any and all noise around these reports exists only for a few days and things go back to square one soon with no action taken.&lt;/p&gt;

The report, submitted to the government of India in 2011, had designated the Pettimudi region among the most sensitive ecological zones in the Western Ghats and recommended avoiding construction of any roads, buildings or flattening of land using heavy machinery.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;It is an oft-noticed pattern that in the immediate aftermath of any disaster in ecologically sensitive regions, the attention first goes to an earlier report on the region, if any. For example, after the Kerala landslide of 2019, several media articles pointed to the three important reports that called for the expeditious conservation of the Western Ghats &amp;ndash; the Gadgil report, Kasturirangan report and Oommen V Oommen report &amp;ndash; none of which was implemented in Kerala. More recently, after the flash floods in Uttarakhand&amp;rsquo;s Chamoli district, attention has been drawn to a 2019 study that spoke in-depth about the rapidly melting glaciers in the Himalayan region based on data spanning 40 years. These reports usually indicate how sensitive that particular region is and have recommendations about being extremely cautious in opening up the region for developmental activities like construction of roads, buildings, dams, etc. However, it is also normal that any and all noise around these reports exists only for a few days and things go back to square one soon with no action taken.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Please &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.thenewsminute.com/article/development-vs-environment-debate-resurfaces-after-uttarakhand-flash-floods-143211&quot; title=&quot;https://www.thenewsminute.com/article/development-vs-environment-debate-resurfaces-after-uttarakhand-flash-floods-143211&quot;&gt;click here&lt;/a&gt; to read more.&lt;/p&gt;&#039;

Development vs environment debate resurfaces after Uttarakhand flash floods -Megha Kaveri

-TheNewsMinute.com Experts say that the narrative that a country must choose between environment and development itself is wrong. Merely days after the fatal landslide in Kerala’s Pettimudi in Idukki district in August last year, the spotlight was back on the Gadgil report on the Western Ghats. The report, submitted to the government of India in 2011, had designated the Pettimudi region among the most sensitive ecological zones in the Western Ghats and recommended avoiding construction of any roads, buildings or flattening of land using heavy machinery. It is an oft-noticed pattern that in the immediate aftermath of any disaster in ecologically sensitive regions, the attention first goes to an earlier report on the region, if any. For example, after the Kerala landslide of 2019, several media articles pointed to the three important reports that called for the expeditious conservation of the Western Ghats – the Gadgil report, Kasturirangan report and Oommen V Oommen report – none of which was implemented in Kerala. More recently, after the flash floods in Uttarakhand’s Chamoli district, attention has been drawn to a 2019 study that spoke in-depth about the rapidly melting glaciers in the Himalayan region based on data spanning 40 years. These reports usually indicate how sensitive that particular region is and have recommendations about being extremely cautious in opening up the region for developmental activities like construction of roads, buildings, dams, etc. However, it is also normal that any and all noise around these reports exists only for a few days and things go back to square one soon with no action taken.
