I N S A A N I Y A T
Friends,
The recent elections in Kashmir have been keenly watched by the
world. While the NDA government is congratulating itself on the
"success" of these elections, to what extent have voters actually
exercised their franchise? How do the people of Kashmir feel about
the prospects of democracy in their state? Where does the solution
lie to an intractable conflict that has devastated the lives of
entire generations of people and contributed to permanent tension in
the Subcontinent?
To debate these issues, Insaaniyat is organizing a public meeting on
KASHMIR : WHICH WAY FORWARD?
on Friday, 11th October, at the YWCA Hall, Colaba, 5.30 to 7.30 p.m.
The speakers are:
Gautam Navlakha (human rights activist and editorial consultant of
Economic and Political Weekly)
Dr Ritu Dewan (Pakistan-India Forum for Peace and Democracy, and
lecturer, Bombay University)
Ajay Raina (film-maker, director of Tell them the tree they have
planted, has grown, a film on Kashmir and active member of Kasai ki
chali, a group working amongst riot victims in Ahmedabad, Gujarat).
Note: To permit ample time for discussion, we shall start punctually
at 5.30 p.m. Please come on time!
