*37 days of gruelling walk, more than 50 days of dharna at Jantar Mantar
Prime Minister still giving a blind eye to Bhopalis*
**


Around 40 Bhopal survivors including women and children chained themselves
at PM Residence on the 55th day of their dharna in New Delhi. They walked on
foot from Bhopal to Delhi more than 800 km for the second time to ask Prime
Minsiter to keep the promises made in 2006. The demands are simple and just-
An empowered Commission on Bhopal and Legal Action against Dow Chemicals
(current owner of Union Carbide). Despite repeated appeals Prime Minister
did not agree to meet the Bhopalis, forcing them to reach his residence
hoping it would be too close for him to ignore. 22 Bhopalis are arrested
while 40 others have been released.

 *Solidarity meeting tomorrow: 22nd May, 4:00 PM, Bhopal Dharnasthal, Jantar
Mantar
Please join us and condemn the Prime Minister's continued apathy towards
Bhopal victims.*
**


Please call/ sms/ email all your friends, family and aquaintances and join
in huge numbers. High time we tell Prime Minister that Delhi is watching his
stance closely.


Care!
