Barda Sanctury - Mining poses threat

There was a time when Gujarat State Govt wished to shift Asiatic Lions from Gir National Sanctuary to Barda wildlife sanctuary in Jamnagar.

Information sought by RTI reveals mining activities near Barda area.

21 permissions for mining around the forest area have been granted since 2002, many NOC are issued from Forest Dept as well. There are 38 additional requests that are pending for the licenses to mine in and around Barda sanctuary. Obviously, forest dept are denied the claim categorically. Out of many licenses few were also renewed on bases of NOC from forest Dept.

Barda sanctuary is spread over 190 sq km falling in Jamnagar and Porbandar districts. According to Wildlife Protection Act (1972), mining is not permissible in 5 km periphery of the sanctuary.

Water Crisis - worsening

After many years, Jamnagar Citizens will see a sight long forgotten - water tankers.

Delayed monsoon is draging reserviour levels to new lows and many people in the region will have to rely on water supplied through tankers if the monsoon gets delayed by a week or more. Of 109 / 120 reservoirs in Saurashtra-Kutch have hit rock bottom or are on the verge of it.

Cities like Jamnagar and Bhuj cities will need to look for alternative arrangements like supplying underground water to the residents through tanker services to tide over the situation.

The situation is worst in Jamnagar as only 6.31 per cent of the quantum is left in the 30 dams in Jamnagar. Over 55 villages in the district has already started water supply through tankers. This number is likely to go up, if rains don't come within a week or so.

Farming Food For Birds Only

In the past farmers across the world had to share their crops with jamin-dar's, then rajah's and after democracy its the Govt.

However in Gujarat, its been a tradition to share the crops with the one who gives us the crop - Almighty God.

Following the same tradition, people are feeding birds with generous quantities of bajra and jowar in Jamnagar district, farmers in villages of Jodia taluka are sowing bajra, jowar specially for birds.

Two lanes of jowar are being sowed and the crop is meant only to feed birds and is aptly called "Bhagwan no Bhag (God's share)" .

Many farmers in these areas have moved on to produce high yield crops or foreign fruits and vegetation, these farmers have now decided to sow few areas of their land only for birds.

VD Bala, a forester at Hingolgadh sanctuary and members of his Navrang Nature Club are travelling many villages since a year for the cause of
"Ram ki Chidia, Ram ka Khet" (Birds and fields both are due to grace of Lord Ram). Bala is expecting more then 10,000 farmers in Saurashtra will join this drive.
