Keeping the promises: India's march goes on




Christian Aid Global show

Summary: India's March for Justice (Jan Satyagraha) 2012 stands as a victory for the tens of thousands of people who marched. Their demands for greater rights to land, natural resources and shelter are inscribed in a written agreement signed by the national government. So what now? In this podcast Ekta Parishad's Jan Satyagraha campaign coordinator, Ramesh Sharma, rounds up the gripping events of the days leading up to the agreement, in conversation with Christian Aid's communications officer Sarah Filbey. On the same day that the Task Force set up to put the agreement into action met for the first time, Ramesh explains why he feels confident that promises made by the government this time will be kept. And why the campaign is far from done. http://www.christianaid.org.uk/whatwedo/in-focus/india-march-for-justice/index.aspx www.ektaparishad.com #EktaParishad #JanSatyagraha #marchforjustice #land #resources #rights #peacefulnegotiation #RameshSharma #India
