[Reader-list] Pani Hakk Abhiyan

[Nagraj Adve]

*PANI HAKK ABHIYAN*


 29 June 2011


 Friends,

The corporate takeover of people’s resources has been intensifying; in
recent weeks, there have been a number by moves by the Delhi government to
further the privatization of water in Delhi. Water distribution, metering,
billing, etc is all being handed over to large corporations. We believe this
undermines people’s basic right to water, and is detrimental to the working
poor in Delhi.


 In order to resist this takeover of the most precious commons resource,
over 35 organizations – unions, student groups, democratic rights, and
women’s organizations, other collectives – have recently come together under
the banner Pani Hakk Abhiyan. Two formative meetings have taken place, and a
parcha has been drafted towards charting out a campaign. The next meeting is
on 1 July. We invite you to participate in the meeting and campaign.



*Venue*: Indian Social Institute, Lodhi Road

*Date*: 1 July (Friday), 2 pm onwards
