Fax Action - Support the Villagers of Pune! Dow is trying to build a chemical experimentation facility in Shinde Vasuli village, near Pune. In January, villagers dug up the road and stopped construction. In July, when the company attempted to restart construction with police protection, Warkari devotees of a local saint entered and demolished the construction site. A Warkari leader claimed responsibility but the police have cracked down on innocent villagers to intimidate the people of Shinde Vasuli into submission. Protest the unconditional support of the Government to Dow Chemical and Union Carbide in Pune, and against the police high-handedness against Shinde-Vasuli villagers NOW by sending a free fax to the Chief Minister of Maharashtra, and keep up to date on developments at bhopal.net, here.
