Udupi: Protest against PCPIR - 6/5/2008
UdayavaniUdupi , June 5: The proposed Petroleum, Chemical and Petrochemical Investment Region Project (PCPIR) comprising Dakshina Kannada and Udupi district would destroy the agriculture and fishing in the coastal belt of the State and also would put an end to the rich identity of Tuluvas, alleged Udupi MP Manorama Madhvaraj.
The project would consume about 80,000 acres in Mangalore, Bantwal, Karkala and Udupi taluks and water for the proposed project will be drawn from Gurupur and Mulki rivers apparently by building dams. It is also understood that there would be a major harbor in Padubidri further threatening the already depleting fish stock in the coast, she added.
Coming down heavily on the recommendation of the project by the State and subsequent approval by the Centre, Madhvaraj said, “such projects cannot be recommended or approved by any government without the public consensus as lakhs of people will lose their livelihood and the region would lose its unique culture and tradition.
According to the information available 230,000 people will be employed by this development.
But the Government has failed to note how many people, presently self sufficient will lose their livelihood and threat to water security and environment, she accused.
The area is already under threat from the proposed 1015 MW coal based Nagarjuna Thermal power project in Yellur and Nandikur area, she said and threatened to take up a strong agitation against the PCPIR project as this is a serious challenge for the Tulu speaking community to fight for survival and urged the concerned authorities to scrap out the planned project.
A request letter will be forwarded to Prime Minister Manmohan Singh through Udupi Deputy Commissioner, Madhvaraj informed.
