  • NITI Aayog’s vision for Great Nicobar ignores tribal, ecological concerns

    NITI Aayog’s vision for Great Nicobar ignores tribal, ecological concerns

    The Wildlife Board refers to the Galathia Bay Sanctuary for the construction of the harbor, the trade area.

    What appears to be a replay of recent developments in Little Andaman Island (a bullet through the heart of an island, Hindu, 1 February), over 150 sq km. Land is being made available for Phase I of a NITI-Pilot-‘comprehensive ‘and’ sustainable ‘vision for Great Nicobar Island, the southernmost part of the Andaman-Nicobar Group. It occupies about 18% of 910 sq km. The island, and will cover about a quarter of its coast. The overall plan envisages use of about 244 sq km. – A large part is ancient forest and coastal system.

    The projects to be executed in the first phase cover a 22 sq km. The airport complex, a transshipment port (TSP) in the South Bay at an estimated cost of Rs 12,000 crore, a parallel-to-coast mass rapid transport system and a free trade zone and warehousing complex on the southwest coast.

    As the nodal agency of the Andaman and Nicobar Islands Integrated Development Corporation (ANIIDCO), what has come to prominence in the entire process starting in mid-2020 is the speed and coordination with which it all came to light. The second NITI is the centrality of Aayog. First, on September 4, 2020, the Director, Tribal Welfare, A&N Islands formed an Empowered Committee to examine NITI Aayog’s proposals for various projects in Little Andaman and Great Nicobar Islands. A copy of the 2015 policy ‘Policy on the Shompane Tribe of Great Nicobar Island’ was part of a communication sent out indicating the objectives of the committee.

    There have also been significant changes on legal changes for wildlife and forest conservation.

    Ecological specificity

    At its meeting on January 5, 2021, the National Board for Wildlife (NBWL) Standing Committee designated the entire Galathia Bay Wildlife Sanctuary to be allowed to harbor.

    The NBWL committee was unaware that India’s National Sea Tortoise Action Plan was being prepared at the time (it was released on February 1, 2021) called Galathia Bay as’ important coastal and marine biodiversity areas’ and ‘important marine The turtle was listed as one of the ‘habitats’. in country. It is included in the Coastal Regulation Zone (CRZ) -I, the area with maximum security.

    Then, on 18 January, another Environment Ministry Expert Committee approved the “Zero Limit” Ecologically Sensitive Zone (ESZ) for Galithia NP, which lands in the southeastern and southeastern part of the island for the NITI scheme. Allows to use. . The October 2020 draft notification for this zero threshold was ironically listed by the ESZ as the park’s ecological distinctiveness – that it is part of a UNESCO World Heritage Site, with a wide variety of forests, one of the most. There is a well preserved tropical rainforest. The world is home to 648 species of flora and hosts 330 species of fauna including rare and endemic creatures like Nicobar wild boar, Nicobar tree peel, Great Nicobar, Serpent Eagle, Nicobar Paradise Flycatcher and Nicobar megapod. It also notes that the park is home to the indigenous Shomen community.

    The notification states that an ESZ is required to protect the park from an ecological, environmental and biodiversity point of view, but to propose a zero limit ESZ for approximately 70% of the park’s perimeter, in the next next paragraph goes.

    It is almost as if the unique diversity of life has suddenly vanished due to an arbitrary line drawn to allow high value projects.

    This is illustrated in the case of the giant leatherback turtle and the Nicobar megapod, two charismatic species for which the Great Nicobar is very important. Like the mouth of the Galathia River in the South Bay, the beaches here are among the most prominent nesting sites around the world. It is for this reason that the bay was declared a wildlife sanctuary in 1997, but has now been designated to allow for Transparent Port.

    In his 2007 study of the Nicobar megapod, unique to the endangered bird Nicobar, K. Sivakumar of the Wildlife Institute of India documented 90% of this ground’s nesting birds nest 30 meters from shore. He notes that the existing protected area network in Great Nicobar is not designed for the conservation of megapods and recommends that the entire west and southern coast of Great Nicobar – the area sought for by NITI’s new proposals – megapods and Be protected for others. Wildlife such as sea turtle nesting. This is also in contrast to the current move to create a zero boundary ESZ for Galathia National Park.

    Showman threatened

    Similar concerns are about the impact on the Shomen community. The proposed project areas are the key critical foundation for the nomadic community of this hunter-gatherer and the official showman policy of 2015, with particular attention given that the welfare and integrity of these people should be prioritized “future large-scale development proposals In relation to “Nicobar Islands (eg trans-shipment port / container terminal etc.)”. Now, the large forest areas here can be inaccessible and useless for showmen.

    The available evidence suggests that the geological instability issues of these islands are also not fact. December 26, 2019, ‘Tender Document by WAPCOS Limited for Traffic Study to Build Transhipment Port in South Bay’, Great Nicobar Island, upholds Port. Given here that “the island’s topography is most appropriate, which has not been damaged more than the tsunami on 26.11.2004 (sic).”

    Nevertheless, the 2005 Earthquake Engineering Research Institute (EERI) Special Earthquake Report by a multi-disciplinary team from the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Kanpur, witnessed witness accounts of 8-meter-high tsunami waves hitting the Great Abobar coast on 26 December. were recorded. , 2004. “The lighthouse at Indira Point, located on the southern tip of Great Nicobar Island, which was on high ground before the earthquake,” the report states, “is now under water, which is about 3-4 meters of land sub-section. Prompts. “

    The loss of life and property was then limited because the Great Nicobar coast is largely uninhabited. It questions the security of life, property and investment in the region and that too without accounting for its complex ecological, social and geological weaknesses. Little, if anything, the NITI Aayog visionary document itself is also aware – what is its rationale? What was its manufacturing process? Which agencies / individuals were involved? Have impact assessments, if any, been done at all?

    Neither NITI Aayog nor the agencies facilitating it with enthusiasm and efficiency have made it available.

  • Tribal farmers threatened the existence of Wenlock Downs, one of the last remaining grasslands in the Nilgiris

    Tribal farmers threatened the existence of Wenlock Downs, one of the last remaining grasslands in the Nilgiris

    Over a hundred hectares of the remaining grasslands in the Upper Nilgiris at Wenlock Downs, the Shola-grasslands are being gradually wiped out by encroachments by the former tribal patrons – Toda and Kotas.

    According to forest department officials, out of the total expanse of 1,500 hectares of land designated as “forest land” in the Udhagai North Range, 100 hectares have been encroached upon by Todd and Kotus, many of whom have leased their land for non Have given over – Money in exchange for a small fee.

    Eucalyptus-based conservationist Ann. Mohanraj explained the importance of protecting the region, saying, “The Wenlock Downs Reserve Forest is an important wildlife corridor, allowing wildlife from the Sigur plateau to the upper Nilgiris. The landscape is one of the last remaining patches of shola and grasslands throughout Nilgiris besides Mukthri Park. ”

    Forest Department officials told Hindu The first of the tracts that have been encroached upon were the tracts on which the toads had grazing rights, or the lands of the Toda, where the toads were allowed to cultivate small lands with express permission of the district administration was. However, since the early 2000s, tribals have stopped applying for permission and are farming without proper approval. Officials said that most of the encroachments occurred near the Tenth Mile, Samyaramattam and Pudumund areas.

    “In the last 20 years, Todd and Kot have started claiming that all these lands are ancestral lands, and they have the right to cultivate crops here. The conservationists of the Nilgaias said that they have destroyed the pastures, as the old pattern of land use, destroyed the pastures, the land has changed and they have become farmers.

    One of the Todas, who has been cultivating crops on their own small land of about two acres in the last five years at Wenlock Downs, said most tribals feel it is unfair that they are being targeted by the Forest Department . “It is not just Toda and Kotas who are doing farming. Violations are being carried out across the district, from illegal buildings to illegal tree-felling. When very little work is being done to stop construction and farming elsewhere, why should the tribals be held accountable if our farming activities are too low? ” He was amazed.

    Siddharth Krishnan, convener of the ATREE (Ashoka Trust for Research in Ecology and the Environment) Academy for Conservation Science and Sustainable Studies, which has since the early 20th century, when it was administered by the British, and after independence, has Said Wenlock Downs Reserve Forest has dramatically changed from being a shola-grassland mosaic, largely populated by invasive species of wood, thorn and vegetation.

    This issue is very complex, as the land has been sub-leased since colonial times. In addition, government policy in the past has also encouraged todas for systematic agriculture, while plantations of eucalyptus, cattle, and cedar, formerly raised by the Forest Department, have destroyed grasslands, some of which are named Toda. Were in patta land, ”said Mr. Krishnan.

    While clarifying that he was not condemning the damage done to the landscape, Mr. Krishnan said that cooperation between forest department and tribals is needed to come up with a comprehensive landscape management plan.

    “Grasslands are always designated as wastelands in policy discourse. There is also the question of the Forest Rights Act in the area, as to whether it will acquire the rights accepted under Toda Patta land, or whether it provides additional protection, ”he said, including targeted restoration projects to be done. While ensuring that farming does not spread further.

    When contacted by District Forest Officer, Nilgiri Department, Guru Swami Dabbawala, he said that the Wenlock Down Reserve Forest provided immediate protection. “The problem is that tribals encroach on a small part of the forest for one year, and next they lease it to outsiders and move to another part of the meadow or forest. This will inevitably lead to more problematic human-animal relationships not only in Wenlock Down but also in other areas, ”he said.

    Mr. Mohanraj said that the scenario was ideal for promoting eco-tourism as an alternative to destructive agricultural practices. “This is the only shola-pasture landscape that is easily accessible to the public, and if local communities can get involved in promoting eco-tourism, they will make more money than leasing the land to outsiders,” ” said.

    N., founder of Wildlife and Nature Conservation Trust. Sadiq Ali said that efforts should be made to immediately identify the non-tribals farming in the area. “Their illegal farms should be immediately returned to the forest department so that they can be restored,” he said.

  • Tribal eviction suffers from cardiac arrest, dies

    Tribal eviction suffers from cardiac arrest, dies

    In a shocking incident, 35-year-old Adivasi Banothu Hanumanathu of Adivasi Basti – an evictor, who was associated with Adigadakishtapur village, suffered a cardiac arrest on Monday and died in a government hospital. He is survived by his wife and three children – a 14-year-old boy and two 10 and 7-year-old girls.

    Tanda, with some 60 houses and a population of 200, will drown in Mallanasagar in the next few months.

    The residents of this tribal colony have been under severe pressure to evacuate the village for the last five days and most of the residents are reluctant to vacate the village and have repeatedly made it clear to the authorities.

Sri Hanumanathu developed a cardiac problem and was immediately transferred to a government hospital where he died.

    “Mr. C. Hanumanathu has lost two acres of land for the canal a few years ago and has not been compensated for it as he was given the land. Now he is losing another three acres, for which officials said that he No compensation will be given as he was given the land. Further no package was given to his mother either. All this has increased the pressure on Sri Hanumanathu which stopped his heart rate and later he died, “one of Tanda Another resident Banothu Raju told Hindu.

    “Mr. C. Hanumanathu lost nearly two acres of land in the Pranhit-Chevelala Canal almost a decade ago and was not compensated as government land. A check has been prepared in his name and we have already shown it to him. Have given and told him that it will be handed over to him along with others. His death was not related to the payment, “said a revenue official, on condition of anonymity, admitting that the general pressure, faced by all others Going, it may be the reason.
