How Eco-Sensitive Zones (ESZs)/Ecologically Fragile Areas (EFAs) affect numerous farmers?


കര്‍ഷകരുടെ അവകാശങ്ങള്‍ നേടിയെടുക്കാന്‍ നീതിക്കായ് മരണംവരെ പോരാടും.

Ecologically Fragile Areas (EFAs) also known as Eco-Sensitive Zones (ESZs) are areas notified in India by the Modi government's Ministry of Environment, Forests and Climate Change (MoEFCC), purported to protect areas around forests, Wildlife Sanctuaries, and National Parks.

If the rules are implemented in India, many people particularly farmers will be terribly affected especially in states like Kerala, and it will indirectly affect the whole of India!

The Catholic Church in Kerala which always stands with the poor, neglected, and hapless people, has come openly to strike in support of the farmers who may lose their agricultural lands and property as a result of this new law.

KCBC (Kerala Catholic Bishops Council) Justice, Peace, and Development Commission Chairman Bishop Mar Jose Pulickal is appealing to all the lawmakers and the political leaders of the country to strive for the revision of such laws that will affect the inhabitants of the land for many generations.

Any government elected by the people to rule them must understand and remember well that the life of people are more valuable and important than that of animals!
