Hi elmat, Re: Hydroelectric Projects and Democratic Protest ~~ Here's a link to Arundhati Roy's pages. Two weeks ago, she was jailed by Indian Supreme Court for contempt. She had the audacity to tell the truth. About the court and about the development of several energy projects in India. She's a hero of mine: website.lineone.net Other links: website.lineone.net <Snip>Summoned before two judges to answer the charge that she had threatened to kill a group of Indian lawyers during a sit down protest in December, she responded with a blistering affidavit accusing the court of trying to "intimidate and harass" her......The issue is so sentitive that reporters were barred from the court yesterday, for the second time in this case. "It was entirely illegal to stop people coming into court," Prashant Bhushan, the lawyer for the Narmada Bachao Andolan, a group fighting against the dam, said. <End Snip>
