Flowing with Mhadei



About the Documentary ‘Flowing with Mhadei’

Karnataka, the neighboring state of Goa in India, in the name of development, plans to choke this very lifeline of Goa. It plans to construct a number of dams and tunnels in this eco fragile and seismic zone, and recharge its depleting river basins caused due to its own gross mismanagement and deforestation. The documentary is produced by an NGO, ECHOGOA and attempts to focus on how such ill thought and shortsighted human intervention would have long term catastrophic and irreversible effects on the human life and environment, not only in Goa and Karnataka in India, but the world as a whole.
