<DIV>Dear all,</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>{sorry for cross posting}</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>Most of you know about the 34-year old Narmada struggle in India. This year
things have turned to be a bit critical. With over 32,000 families yet to be
rehabilitated, having failed to rehabilitate the people, and people refusing to
leave their houses and villages without rehabilitation, the government decided
to fill the reservoir and flush the people out. In protest, demanding just
rehabilitation, Medha Patkar the senior activist of Save Narmada Movement is on
an indefinite fast, and today is the 6th day. Her health is deteriorating and we
all are a bit concerned about it. There are a few hundreds sitting on a sit-in
along with her near the Narmada river.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>We want to appeal to each one of you to put pressure on the Indian
government, demanding prompt action and to avoid a humanitarian crisis in the
Narmada valley. Since the time is too short, we thought of one sign-on letter,
where a maximum number of international organizations can sign, and release it
publically to let the Indian government know that the Narmada struggle has
support and solidarity from across the borders, the inaction/action of the
government is closely watched by international community.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>Sorry for the short notice, since we want to put maximum pressure in a
short time (because of the health condition), we would like to collect as many
endorsements as possible in the next 12 hours. If you can let us know by 11 am
tomorrow (India time), we would include the name and can release this.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>We already heard from Corner House, Urgewald and BIC Europe signing on
this. Please consider. And thank you in advance. We think a good number of
statements of solidarity would be useful, hence if you prefer to issue a
statement independently that is welcome too. If you want to sign the following
letter, please let's know.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>{Public statement}</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>We, members of the civil society organizations from xx countries express
our deep concern at the growing humanitarian crisis in Narmada valley, in
Central India, where thousands of families are evicted without rehabilitation
for the Sardar Sarovar (Narmada dam). We are also concerned about the
deteriorating health of Medha Patkar, the senior activist, who is into her 6th
day of indefinite fast.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>The dam, initially financed by the World Bank, has been in the center of
controversy for a number of things, including its poor track record of
rehabilitation of the affected communities. We learn that flouting all policies
and guidelines, nearly 32,000 families are yet to be rehabilitated while the dam
construction has been completed and the reservoir is getting filled
rapidly.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>The Narmada struggle has been an inspiration to a number of organizations
world over. Its relentless fight made the World Bank withdraw its financing to
the project in the early '90s, compelled the Bank to institute the Inspection
Panel - the first accountability mechanism in any multilateral bank - and
continues to inspire struggles world-over with its nonviolent struggle.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>We stand in solidarity with the Narmada struggle. We demand the Government
of India, and concerned state governments to address the demands of the struggle
and avoid a humanitarian crisis. </DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>Signed,</DIV></DIV>
