Raja Ganesan's View Of Politics

  Approximately 97% of the total water on Earth is saltwater (seawater). While a vast amount of water is found in oceans, less than 1% of the Earth's total water is readily available for human use, with the rest being freshwater locked in ice caps, glaciers, or groundwater. Breakdown: Saltwater: About 97% of the Earth's water is saltwater, found primarily in oceans.

To enforce their monopoly, they built a 2,700-kilometer-long salt fence across India, protected by 50,000 guards. The cost was enormous, and the cruelty even worse. Families were divided—sometimes a father had to walk five kilometers just to see his daughter on the other side. This salt fence was one of the most inhuman acts in British history. The British themselves knew it was shameful, so they avoided recording it officially, but a few honest officers documented it in their diaries. Only one such record was later published in Tamil, which I read—and I could never forget it. That is why I am writing this post.
