So Congress is such a buddy with BJP that they charged her with Sedition in 2010?? Really?I have never heard her speaking against India sovereignty she has only raised voice against extremist Hindus such as BJP and RSS
Her quote on building dams to Pakistan:
One danger in Pakistan is that we talk about the threat of Taliban so much that other important issues lose focus. In my view, the problem of water in the world will become the most important problem. I think big dams are economically unviable, environmentally unsustainable and politically undemocratic. They are a way of taking away a river from the poor and giving it to the rich. Like in India, there's an issue of SEZs (Special Economic Zones), whereby the land of the people are given to corporations. But the bigger problem is that there are making dams and giving water to the industries. This way the people who live in villages by the streams and rivers have no water for themselves. So building dams is one of the most ecologically destructive things that you can do.
