We have written the letter pasted below to the 35 organisations across Mumbai that have joined up. Do ask someone from your organisation to attend on Friday and send your confirmation with e-mail ID and cell number. We will be forming a huge human chain in Juhu at 4.30pm on Saturday, June 4, a day before World Environment Day. We will be assembling near the Mahatma Gandhi statue at the gap opposite Palm Grove Hotel. Please inform as many people as possible, even those who aren’t members of the AMA, but concerned citizens, to join the human chain. AMA constituents are welcome to carry their own banners, bearing the AMA logo [attached] and their own, but the content is restricted to one of four initial demands AMA is making: 1) Halt to Coast Road 2) Metro 2 to go underground 3) No Metro 3 depot in Aarey Colony & 4) Objections to some DP proposals Kindly inform all citizens to come out in big numbers on Saturday. We also look forward to meeting you an evening earlier on Friday June 3 at Jamnabai School in Juhu [see msg below] and more so at Juhu on Saturday evening. ___________________________________________________________ Abhiyaan Constituents Meeting on Friday June 3, 2016 at 6.00 p.m, Juhu Dear AMA Constituents Let us congratulate each other for growing exponentially in a short time. Today, we are 35 organisations strong and growing. In this short period we have held two press conferences that have been well published. Two more press conferences have been planned in the following weeks. We have resolved to challenge the state government's decision to build a coast road, making Metro-2 elevated and building a Metro yard/depot in Aarey for line -3. We are also concerned about the forthcoming Development Plan, particularly about issues pertaining to the use of salt pan lands and NDZs for construction, and matters relating to affordable housing, etc. As you may be aware, the new DP is likely to be released for public suggestions and objections in a day or two. We have therefore decided to hold the first meeting of all the supporting organisations, as listed below, on Friday, June 3 at 6pm at Jamnabai Narsee School, Juhu scheme. Let us get together to discuss these issues and decide our future course of action, including the filing of our suggestions and objections to the new DP. This meeting is very important, therefore let us all meet and strengthen our collective forces. Please confirm your attendance. We all look forward to meeting each other! ___________________________________________________________ APNA MUMBAI ABHIYAN COALITION OF 35 CITIZENS’ ORGANISATIONS Human Chain protest on Juhu Beach on Saturday June 4, 2016 at 4.30 p.m. Welcome to the Apna Mumbai Abhiyan (AMA)!
