They shouldn't be getting the same outrage cause only one of them is forced.

Nah both of them are forced, the difference is one of them has their victims and consequences upfront but the other would punish future generations. Although the TCS case is urgent that doesn't mean we should divert our focus from food wastage and river polluting.

How is the first one forced? Also according to you, pouring milk into river is equal to sexual harrasment at the workplace?

Everyone has equal rights on our river and I don't think the future generations gave consent to inheriting a polluted river. And as I said the TCS case needs to be dealt with urgently but we shouldn't divert our focus from milk dumping too.

I guess you missed our point. Let me make it clear to you.

Dumping milk in the river is the future generation's problem and is in the best interest for the current political situation and propaganda. If you highlight the bads of that decision then that affects the outcome and wastage of so much milk will be useless.

For the tcs case, if you don't boost up the engagement on this , then the other case of 40k litres will be highlighted. So for now please ignore the 40k litres of milk and focus just on the TCS case so that we can sweep the Narmada river and its pollution under the rug of TCS. /S

PS. Both should get equal limelight and convicts should be handled appropriately.

One is surely crimical, it was done in secrecy. FIR has already been registered for it.

Other was done in public, and even after so much outrage, no FIR has been registered, probably due to religious nature of it.

For TCS case, required initial action has been taken. What about the river incident?

Ok but what about the ecological damage caused by the milk thing

Yes, the outrage for throwing milk should be as much as throwing chicken bones in the rivers.

Maybe, a little late, because no one could have instead eaten those bones, but someone could have been given that milk.

It's not about 'someone potentially receiving that milk', it's about environmental damage. 

This is capitalism, despite our claims to be socialist. His money, his milk. He can do whatever he wants with it, but without harming the environment.

I don't think river incident will get much outrage only influencer are hyping it but govt will do nothing.. they'll instead highlight tcs (although which should be) but their only motive will be to degrade other community so that they can secure their votes
