"Congratulations. By around 2025 India will be the most populous country in the world surpassing China. But unfortunately, India is afflicted with some of the worst circumstances a country can face like a large number of farmers committing suicide, rampant poverty, unmatched corruption, a huge illiterate population, massive unemployment, thousands of un-electrified villages, lack of toilets and sanitation, millions of malnourished children and grave human trafficking of girls and women to outside countries and these prove that all is not well with the country. Any number of data drawn from the utmost reliable sources put India in a bad light. India is the home for one-third of the world’s poorest population. More than 60 crore Indians defecate in the open as per the government’s own revelation. The book relies heavily on the data provided by UNO and the Indian government. The country is hiding its face like an ostrich to two realities, namely, population explosion and corruption which have placed the country on the path of disaster. The policy makers are concerned with their own well-being and the elected representatives with their own five-year term. The country is drifting into an unknown realm of catastrophe. After reading the book you have to decide whether the country is sick or healthy. If you find the country sick please suggest how to redeem the country. It is your turn now to speak. Can you do anything for India? Read on…… "

The book, as the title - Withering forests Dying rivers convey, is a work highlighting concerns regarding the desecrated status of the environment in the new millennium, which dawned on the author as revealed in the preface. Passion of the author for preservation of environment prompted highlighting of case studies covering depleting forest cover, receding catchments of water sources, rapid disappearance of hills, defilement of rivers and water bodies, mining of fossil fuels, ills of harnessing ground water and above all the urgent need to revert back to age old wisdom and traditional mode of conservation as a guiding principle. The author through his writings, interaction with civil society and policy makers since 2005 made sustained efforts to create awareness among the common denizens and also draw attention on the ailing environment with plausible solutions. The multi-pronged approach was primarily to elicit positive response to the alert signals, with a focus on the youth to initiate positive interventions in arresting the rapid decline in the state of environment, which has been allowed to be defiled and exploited at will. The issues in the book are not new; nor state specific, but evident all over the globe in some form or the other, assuming alarming proportions in absence of any concrete measures to evolve a comprehensive strategy to tackle the impending doom. Has the situation improved or further deteriorated? It is for the readers to comprehend and decide.
