Politicians say we are fighting this election
00:03
and development is the topmost on our manifesto.
00:06
Now what do you mean by development? Please explain.
00:08
One of the reasons why the heat wave is so severe
00:12
is because of development.
00:13
Will we ever count the casualties of development?
00:17
Let me tell you a simple thing.
00:18
No shade is left in our big cities
00:22
because all the trees have been massacred
00:24
in the name of development.
00:25
Development is such a vague word, is it not?
00:29
Development, Vikas.
00:30
What exactly are you talking of?
00:32
Come on, let's specify.
00:33
What do you mean by development?
00:34
What do you mean by growth?
00:36
And how do you account for all the people who are dying?
00:39
Because they can't find even a single tree to rest under.
00:42
And can you imagine what has happened
00:44
to the birds and the insects when there are no trees?
00:47
Do we spare even a thought to them?
00:50
But we don't want to talk about it.
00:52
We say development, development and GDP, GDP.
