People's Court on Sunday, March 16 against Dow

Dear friend,

You are aware of the KICK OUT DOW SAVE PUNE MOVEMENT going on in Pune in support of the people of Shinde Vasuli and other villages near Chakan, against a proposed R&D centre being set up by Dow Chemical Company in their area. Dow as i have mailed you some days ago is one of the most notorious chemical companies in the world, a consummate liar, which for its profits can commit cold-blooded murder of innocent people.

So far, we have organised numerous rallies and dharnas in nearby towns and villages around Chakan and in Pune. This Sunday, we are organising a different kind of Program, a PEOPLE'S COURT.
