We are told it brings progress, but we have seen how progress drowns small lives. The deep-sea mining argument matters for India because your nation too knows the cost of distant powers digging up what lies beneath without asking the ones who live above it. I remember my father’s fishing nets coming up empty after the foreign ships passed, our ocean floor scarred. So when they say ‘target’ and ‘line’ for minerals, I hear the same words that tighten the noose around my home.
