Following is a forward I have received.
If true,
Cause for concern.
Published in Public interest.
The greed of Businessmen seem to have no bounds.
Selling water is a Sin.
To sell it in a corporate way….. what to say..
This is an Urgent Invite and an Appeal.
An exclusive group of American business executives are coming to Bangalore on the 28th of February under the protection of the US department of Commerce and in their own words, they will be here on a mission to
“Tap the $50 billion (2.5 Lakh Crore) Indian Water Market”. Though this US Water Trade Mission will be visiting only Bangalore and Mumbai, the whole of India needs to wake up to this overt effort action by the Americans. The USAID has been consistently working on water reforms for more than a decade but this is the first time that such a ‘mission’ is being planned. The peoples’ campaign for right to water–Karnataka is organising aplanning meet on the 15th , SCM House, off Mission Road, Bangalore between 10 AM and 2 PM . The people of Karnataka have to plan a series of actions against the mission including a mass protest on the 28th. A base paper on the event has been attached for your reference. Please attend the planning program.
On behalf of the peoples’ campaign,
