The Indian landless have been marching for almost a month (yes a month). They started on 2nd Oct. They have multiple issues (if you’re interested, see the BBC article). They want land, water and the multinationals not to take away their lands.
Agree with them or not, 25000 people marching for a month is no small affair. Indian media, by and large, have ignored it. We, bloggers, have failed too, to bring this to notice. The poor are losing share in India.
Another depressing news: just as the sensex crossed, 20000, India ranked 93 among 119 developing countries in poverty index. This, too, went unnoticed.
India is for us. The rich.
