Hands off Lalgarh!
Stop State Terror – Scrap the SEZs
Picket of the Indian High Commission
The Aldwych, London WC1
Friday 24 July 2009, 3.30pm – 5.30pm

In a test case establishing the fact that its model of neoliberal ‘development’ will be enforced through unrestrained violence the Indian central government is carrying out a massive paramilitary campaign in Lalgarh and surrounding areas in the adivasi (aboriginal) -dominated western region of West Bengal state. They are attempting to mercilessly crush an uprising against police atrocities and the seizure of land for the establishment of a Special Economic Zone (SEZ) by Jindal Steel Works, an Indian multinational.

Support the struggle! Join the protest!
