Great Nicobar S.O.S.<br>
🌿 THEY'RE ABOUT TO COMMIT ECOLOGICAL MURDER — AND CALL IT "NATIONAL SECURITY."<br>
<br>
The Indian government is bulldozing Great Nicobar Island — a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve older than civilization itself — for hotels, ports, and a township. Nearly 1 million trees will be felled. The only major nesting ground of the endangered Leatherback Turtle in the Indian Ocean? Gone. Ancient coral reefs that took millions of years to form? Dredged. The Shompen tribe — who have quietly called this island home for 10,000+ years — displaced without consent, in direct violation of the Forest Rights Act.<br>
<br>
Over 70 scientists, ecologists, and genocide experts from 13 countries have warned this is irreversible. They've even used the word genocide.<br>
<br>
The government's "national security" justification? Only 5% of the project is military. The remaining 95% is a commercial mega-hub worth ₹81,000 crore.<br>
<br>
Science was pressured. Reports were suppressed. Public hearings were rigged.<br>
<br>
I, Neel Patel, as an Indian citizen, refuse to stay silent.<br>
<br>
The turtles can't speak. The Shompen are being ignored. The coral reefs can't vote.<br>
<br>
So WE must be their voice.<br>

Neel, supported: SAVE THE NICOBARSNature is more than profit-the numerous species that reside there-wether flora or fauna, big or small matter ecologically. The sheer biodiversity present there cannot be stripped away as seen in other parts of India.
Mick, supported: SAVE THE NICOBARSYou cannot breathe in Mumbai. We’re not gonna let that happen to the rest of India.
zenobia, supported: SAVE THE NICOBARSThe proposed project threatens the survival of the indigenous Shompen and Nicobarese communities. I stand against the displacement of people for a destructive mega-project. #SaveNicobar
Vijay, supported: SAVE THE NICOBARSYou’re not alone — a community of supporters is ready to back you.
