Beautiful Munnar..sadly, dying one too !!

Blessed with mist covered tea-hills, wonderful landscapes, fresh water-falls, and one of the highest tea plantation in whole world, Munnar(also called Kashmir of Kerala) is begging for some nature-lovers intervention. But in current political system no one can save her unless Govt and judiciary come up with stringent measures against those land mafia and unending encroachment by big tycoons.

We can only say our opinions on these matter as nothing can be changed by just a common man's voice. And it's been a common phenomenon that those who raised their sound against these mafia, will be either manhandled or even  killed. But if this situation continues, its for sure, next generation can only see Munnar through pictures and videos.

This is just another instance of politicians making common men just fools, again and again. Another important thing which i felt with the recent demolition of "buildings on encroached-land" is, it shouldn't be so brutally demolished. Instead Govt can take up the whole thing and convert it to some hotel or other purpose buildings. Just think how many natural resources had been used for constructing such beautiful and huge buildings. Now there is a situation where sand-mining has been prohibited from many rivers. The same sand was once used for the construction of these buildings. Anybody with some common-sense left cannot justify these demolition act. It's heart breaking to see such beautiful resorts and all being convert to useless piles of concrete waste.

National Geographic has already enlisted Munnar as one of the best tourist destination among 133 other in the whole planet! The beauty of this place is very famous internationally too. I would love to share some of my pictures of Munnar, which i took way back in 2007. It's been almost 3 years since i visited Munnar. I still recall those wonderful scenes and breath-taking beauty of landscapes. Being a strong nature-lover, i just can't bare this.. But sadly This is no more God's own country..Country led my damn politicians, Corrupted officials and some goons. A big sorry for the next generation for making this paradise to hell. A Big Sorry...
