Cyber action against Vedanta plc - visit websites


Dear Friends,
     As you know Vedanta plc- the criminal mining company, which is going to have a catastrophic effect on the people and environment of Orissa, eastern India- is having their AGM in London on 28 July.
 
A cyber action against Vedanta plc has been launched from 2 websites. This is an extremely easy and effective way of sending thousands of emails to:-
  1. Jairam Ramesh (India's Minister of Environment & Forestry), India's Prime Minister and 10 other senior politicians,
  2. To some major banks with investments in Vedanta.
  3. To UK's government body DfID (Department for International Development).
 
You can go to www.niyamgiri.net and send emails from there to Jairam Ramesh with cc's to the Indian Prime Minister and others. 
 
If you send this, the next screen will ask you to contact the banks and DfID with a link to http://forests.org/shared/alerts/send.aspx?id=india_mine
 
 
Please network this as widely as you can. Please  invite any friends who may be interested to visit  www.niyamgiri.net   where, with a few clicks of the mouse, they can send emails to Indian 
decision makers and the financiers bankrolling this destruction.
 
Solidarity,
Agrotosh
