Hunger strike for Bhopal: June 10 to ?? |
|
We are outraged that survivors from the Union Carbide (now Dow Chemical) gas tragedy in Bhopal have been stripped, beaten and arrested by the Indian police in Madhya Pradesh. Instead of meeting their demands and making Dow Chemicals clean up the contaminated factory site (one would have thought the 24 years that have passed since were enough time for this to have been done) which is adversely affecting the health of local residents, the Bhopal survivos protesting for the Prime Minister Manmohan Singh to meet them (isn't over 100 days of walking to and camping at Delhi enough to get an audience with his highness), have been ignored, beaten and jailed. They have started an indefinite fast. Would you like to express your solidarity by joining them by fasting for a day or more at your home? Click here
