Re: Statement by Concerned Citizens: Govt shd respond to Maoist offe Posted by: "op goel" opg...@yahoo.com   opgoel Mon Mar 1, 2010 6:46 am (PST) Intentions of the so called human rights activists have always been suspect as they have suffered at the hands of the state at one time or the other.This has coloured their thinking for ever. Even if the state ever was to take a positive step, they would see a shadow behind it. Most of the so called human rights activists have pretensions of intellectual prowess and pride themselves in being members of the intellectual club which also has CPM[maoists] activists in a big measure.These activists very strongly feel that they alone are the sole torch bearers of human suffering and the Indian poor. It is another matter that almost all of them have studied in a foreign university, have had the best upbringing and comfortably live in a metro.A majority of them write well but their writing is majorly based on demeaning the Indian state and the Indian conditions but that is what brings them big bucks from the foreign shores. Amongst the present human rights activists, there is hardly anyone who could be a credible mediator to act as a strong link between the state and the maoists. But we do have someone outside the above group who could fill this slot. He is Ramchandra Guha as he is not only objective but has credibly conducted himself and knows his facts well. I greatly wish that the maoists come down to the negotiating table for a brighter and better future for the very people that they are fighting a war against the Indian state. opgoel --- On Sun, 2/28/10, Sukla Sen <sukla....@gmail.com> wrote: > From: Sukla Sen <sukla....@gmail.com> > Subject: [chhattisgarh-net] Re: Statement by Concerned Citizens: Govt shd respond to Maoist offer > Date: Sunday, February 28, 2010, 11:13 PM > Dear friends, > > When a shadowy (leading) figure of an underground > organisation engaged in a > war against the state with the intention to overrun it > offers an olive > branch, whatever may be the considerations or compulsions, > it is not easy to > assess the authenticity or credibility of the offer. > Back to top Reply to sender | Reply to group | Reply via web post Messages in this topic (3) 1b.

Do not Involve State Police says Siddharth Shankar Ray Posted by: "Kamayani BaliMahabal" kamay...@ymail.com   kamay...@ymail.com Tue Mar 2, 2010 2:59 am (PST) "You cannot go in for an armed solution to a social problem. By waging an armed battle against so many people (the tribal population of the Maoist-infested districts of Bengal), you are actually further marginalising these poor people and pushing them towards the Maoists. I do not support the armed struggle of the Maoists but the fact remains that tribal people in this country have been historically exploited. Despite living in an area that has a large concentration of natural resources, they have never received the fruits of such resources. I have to accept that this was the case even when I was the chief minister, and it has continued through the Left Front’s rule." says   S S Ray http://www.telegraphindia.com/1100302/jsp/bengal/story_12165344.jsp Adv  Kamayani Bali Mahabal Mobile-00919820749204 skype:lawyercumactivist I carry a torch in one hand And a bucket of water in the other: With these things I am going to set fire to Heaven And put out the flames of Hell So that voyagers to God can rip the veils And see the real goal........................................By Rabia (Rabi'a Al-'Adawiyya) Back to top Reply to sender | Reply to group | Reply via web post Messages in this topic (1) 4a. Re: Does advertisement has any ethics? Posted by: "Firoz Khan" ka...@yahoo.com   ka_fk Tue Mar 2, 2010 3:04 am (PST) Why talk about Vedanta alone? Look at what our govt. run PSUs are doing for the tribals. Take Bastar in Chhattisgarh for instance, where NMDC(National Mineral Development Corporation) in the  Kirandul mines has the biggest iron ore mine of the country. NMDC makes a staggering Rs. 4000/- crore profit every year from here. And now take a look at the Sankhani river whose waters are used to wash the iron ore before it is transported by train to the  Vishakapatnam port. It is deep red in colour and highly polluted. Even the banks of this river is red in colour. This is the water which lakhs of adivasis downstream are forced to use for cooking and drinking and for other daily chores. There are frequent cases of stomach and intestine related ailments reported from among the tribes here. But who is bothered. >From the 4000 crore they make cannot NMDC spend a few crores (from their CSR funds)to set up a water treatment plant before they release the water to the villages.  Who cares? If the PSUs dont can we expect the big corporates to safeguard adivasi interests? -firoz khan --- On Mon, 1/3/10, Kamayani BaliMahabal <kamay...@ymail.com> wrote: From: Kamayani BaliMahabal <kamay...@ymail.com> Subject: Re: [chhattisgarh-net] Does advertisement has any ethics?
