The much debated, dissented and resisted Vizhinjam Harbour is becoming a reality now!
And the people who have suffered all its brunts and are left to suffer still are our fisher people along the coast in Vizhinjam and its north and south.
There is a saying, 'bloom where you are planted' as a plant has no choice of the place to grow. Certain things are beyond our power, even the collective power. Even otherwise we are destined to survive all odds, daring the elements even.
Our history is one of disappointments mostly because of our unpreparedness. That was the case with the Travancore Titanium Products (TTP), Airport (now Terminal1) and the Vikram Sarabai Space Centre (VSSC) of ISRO. We have equipped our people for rightful and possible jobs in any of these ventures.
Those who were employed were mostly in the last grades with the only exception of a Director of TERLS (Thumba Equatorial Rocket Launching Station).
Here comes the much desisted and resisted Vizhinjam Harbour. Should we not ensure compensatory, remedial jobs for our people and to equip them with skills for all possible jobs there. Heard that training is going on for such possibilities. What about our people! Should they not be equipped for such possibilities? Let's be prepared for any eventuality.
