&lt;em&gt;A look at how the country&amp;rsquo;s political heavyweights deal with environmental issues and livelihoods in their poll manifestos&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Twin crises beset India today: serious unemployment and the loss of livelihoods, along with the collapse of the ecological basis on which we all survive. Any political party that does not deal with these is not serious about the country&amp;rsquo;s future.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So how well do the country&amp;rsquo;s political heavyweights, the Congress and the BJP, deal with the environment and livelihoods in their poll manifestos?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;em&gt;Overall vision of livelihoods and ecology&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The Congress manifesto, &amp;lsquo;Congress Will Deliver&amp;rsquo;, appears to have recognised at least some important steps that are needed to slow down the catastrophic destruction of the environment. The actions it promises could help provide dignified livelihoods for 65-70% of Indians who depend directly on the natural environment, including farmers, forest-dwellers, fishers, and craftspersons.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
These include a rejig of its flagship MNREGA programme to incorporate land-based work, and substantial focus on forest-fish-agriculture based livelihoods.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Unfortunately, its main economic plank for these and several other major programmes remains economic growth. For some reason, every major political party in India still relies on the outdated myth that high rates of GDP growth will magically translate into jobs, environmental security, and much else.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This is not surprising coming from the Congress; it was after all the one that ushered in economic liberalisation and globalisation in 1991, with macro-economic policy shifts that have not generated substantial net new employment (&amp;lsquo;jobless growth&amp;rsquo;, as its called), and on top of this have proven disastrous for the environment and for nature-dependent communities.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;em&gt;A look at how the country&amp;rsquo;s political heavyweights deal with environmental issues and livelihoods in their poll manifestos&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Twin crises beset India today: serious unemployment and the loss of livelihoods, along with the collapse of the ecological basis on which we all survive. Any political party that does not deal with these is not serious about the country&amp;rsquo;s future.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So how well do the country&amp;rsquo;s political heavyweights, the Congress and the BJP, deal with the environment and livelihoods in their poll manifestos?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;em&gt;Overall vision of livelihoods and ecology&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The Congress manifesto, &amp;lsquo;Congress Will Deliver&amp;rsquo;, appears to have recognised at least some important steps that are needed to slow down the catastrophic destruction of the environment. The actions it promises could help provide dignified livelihoods for 65-70% of Indians who depend directly on the natural environment, including farmers, forest-dwellers, fishers, and craftspersons.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
These include a rejig of its flagship MNREGA programme to incorporate land-based work, and substantial focus on forest-fish-agriculture based livelihoods.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Unfortunately, its main economic plank for these and several other major programmes remains economic growth. For some reason, every major political party in India still relies on the outdated myth that high rates of GDP growth will magically translate into jobs, environmental security, and much else.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This is not surprising coming from the Congress; it was after all the one that ushered in economic liberalisation and globalisation in 1991, with macro-economic policy shifts that have not generated substantial net new employment (&amp;lsquo;jobless growth&amp;rsquo;, as its called), and on top of this have proven disastrous for the environment and for nature-dependent communities.&lt;br /&gt;

This is not surprising coming from the Congress; it was after all the one that ushered in economic liberalisation and globalisation in 1991, with macro-economic policy shifts that have not generated substantial net new employment (&amp;lsquo;jobless growth&amp;rsquo;, as its called), and on top of this have proven disastrous for the environment and for nature-dependent communities.&lt;br /&gt;

Sustaining India: Is There Anything to Choose Between BJP and Congress? -Ashish Kothari

-TheWire.in A look at how the country’s political heavyweights deal with environmental issues and livelihoods in their poll manifestos Twin crises beset India today: serious unemployment and the loss of livelihoods, along with the collapse of the ecological basis on which we all survive. Any political party that does not deal with these is not serious about the country’s future. So how well do the country’s political heavyweights, the Congress and the BJP, deal with the environment and livelihoods in their poll manifestos? Overall vision of livelihoods and ecology The Congress manifesto, ‘Congress Will Deliver’, appears to have recognised at least some important steps that are needed to slow down the catastrophic destruction of the environment. The actions it promises could help provide dignified livelihoods for 65-70% of Indians who depend directly on the natural environment, including farmers, forest-dwellers, fishers, and craftspersons. These include a rejig of its flagship MNREGA programme to incorporate land-based work, and substantial focus on forest-fish-agriculture based livelihoods. Unfortunately, its main economic plank for these and several other major programmes remains economic growth. For some reason, every major political party in India still relies on the outdated myth that high rates of GDP growth will magically translate into jobs, environmental security, and much else. This is not surprising coming from the Congress; it was after all the one that ushered in economic liberalisation and globalisation in 1991, with macro-economic policy shifts that have not generated substantial net new employment (‘jobless growth’, as its called), and on top of this have proven disastrous for the environment and for nature-dependent communities.
