To: Dr. Raman Singh Chief Minister of Chhattisgarh Respected Chief Minister Singh: We, members of an international coalition of peace and justice groups, are writing to you to express our solidarity with the ongoing Satyagraha in Raipur, and urge you to release Dr. Binayak Sen immediately. Starting from March 16th, every Monday, batches of 50-100 people will go to Raipur Jail to demand the release Dr. Binayak Sen. Supporters in other cities around the world are holding solidarity actions during this period. We fully support this Civil Disobedience movement which has been launched by individuals and organizations in the tradition of Mahatma Gandhi and Martin Luther King, to protest the unjust and illegal imprisonment of Dr. Binayak Sen under false and unproven charges, and the repeated denial of his bail application. Our Demands We, the undersigned, extend our fullest support to the Satyagraha in Raipur and demand that the government of Chhattisgarh take immediate steps to: 1. Release Dr. Binayak Sen and stop harassing other human rights defenders, including Ajay T.G. 2. Repeal CSPSA and restore civil liberties for all citizens 3. Disband Salwa Judum, the state-sponsored militia whose involvement in large-scale arson and killings have been indisputably documented, and provide full compensation and justice for all its victims |
