What for houses for them?


Absolutely, a state without homeless is a good idea. It is the duty of the government. Moreover the project, ‘home to homeless’ implements by left democratic lead Kerala government on the name of epic leader. E.M.S  is commendable.
The Kerala government is with the confidence that these benevolence reached to deserved maximum. Nevertheless, two years when I got chance to visit Attappadi tribal colonies, I felt whether this project get misused for undeserved. Number of terraced houses where once being arrayed with hay thatched huts. Beautiful sight in fact. Fortunate at first sight. Each houses for each family including two or three members’ safe doors windows and other basic convenience too.
But only the comedy is clear, when we get close and get into the houses. Most of them are not getting on their nights inside the houses. They spend their nights outside of these cement thatched huts. They spread mats in the cozy courtyards and sleeps; they prepare gruel in the fire places made off gathering rubbles ignoring well made, civilized kitchens. Besides, some of them stayed the cows, goats and dogs inside the houses, some of inside kitchen too.
When government gives this kind of convenience them, in fact government is annoying them. Because, it may said ‘discrimination’, but tribes are tribes. We have to realize the fact aborigines are not like other Semitic religions or other civilized religions in India. They are progenies of jungle. The complacency and the pleasure they get from the nature when they live taming with nature with its freshness and smell of soil and odour of animals, won’t get from the cement thatched houses and from the civilized villages which have been ramified with tarred roads. When live with the forest, wandering through it, by eating wild tubers and wild fruits, they are the part of nature. And nature too.
We show limitless cruelty to nature. Then along with what for to poor tribes? What for we replant them from their race inheritance and nature to the ‘civilization’ what we civilized people concerned? Let them to their own way.
Nevertheless, they are also human beings and have right to experience all convenience what we have, this kind of arguments may strong. it is true. But, it is better to leave them free their own as long as, they won’t  think it should acceptable, and needed for them. It is better to them, us and avail to the existence of nature too.
It is undeniable that increasing toll of untimely death of tribes in Wayanad and other places is aftermath of such kind of replanting. So, leave them who can’t overcome themselves when they loss their soul. Thus get to start love them considering fellow creature.
