Despite government promises, official efforts to treat and rehabilitate the victims and protect them from further exposure to contaminated soil and water are wanting.While incidences of children born with neurobehavioral disorders, congenital malformations and other abnormalities have come down in some of the 11 worst-affected panchayats, they continue to occur in other panchayats.While about 500 deaths from 1995 have been officially acknowledged as related to the spraying of endosulfan, unofficial estimates put the total number of deaths since the late seventies around 4000.People are still dying from after-effects of the pesticide, while more than 1000 live in utter misery.
While the focus earlier was on Padre village, the health impacts are evident in people of nearly 11 panchayats in the district. The goverment job is not a fantasy, It is a social service. Besides, there is the possibility of very high levels of bioaccumulation and bio-concentration in sediments and the food chain.With the reduction of the poison in the environment, insects, butterflies and other species, which had almost disappeared from the affected panchayats have returned.Dr. As the plantations are mostly in mountainous areas, the pesticide drains and gets washed down the slopes during rains into drinking water below.
%%EOF There had been no birth of disabled children in the Perla and Padre areas for the past three months.The incidence of congenital abnormalities, neurological disorders, abortions, epilepsy and other diseases were now comparable to the rest of the population in the State.Abnormalities caused by hormonal imbalance would take at least ten more years to disappear.However, Dr. M. Mohammed, who serves the public health centre at Kadarudukka, said that surveys had shown that the incidence of bone deformities, infertility, mental retardation and congenital heart diseases in the panchayat were ten times more than those among the other populations.Babies were being born even now with cleft palates and other congenital abnormalities.
0000005596 00000 n 0000003118 00000 n We take a look at the Endosulfan trail in India and how it culminated with the Supreme Court ordering compensation for victims. How is the government going to compensate the extra cost of the alternate pesticides?Anything happens and we get out our begging bowl.
Swarga is a documentation of a human-made tragedy set in Kerala. 0000001279 00000 n 0000010329 00000 n I believe Endosulfan is responsible for the large scale suffering in Kasargode. Consuming this water will result in diseases ranging from physical deformities, cancers, birth disorders and damages to brain and nervous system. Even despite the fact that Endosulfan is banned now, for 26 years Kerala Government sprayed the deadly pesticide in government owned cashew plantations under Plantation Corporation of Kerala.While about 500 deaths from 1995 have been officially acknowledged as related to the spraying of Endosulfan, unofficial estimates put the total number of deaths since the late seventies around 4000.
Endosulfan is very dangerous thing.

Now they are giving handouts to prevent suicides and cover up their incompetence rather than provide the facilities that the farmers actually need – i.e. 0000004517 00000 n
