Organiser: India Against Corruption, South Asia Network on Dams, Rivers, & People (SANDRP)
Venue: Karnataka Sangh Hall,
Vishweshwaraya Smarak Mandir,
Moghul lane, Station Road,
Matunga West,
Mumbai -400016
Objective: To come together, understand and discuss the environmental, social, ecological, and financial dimensions of the dams being constructed around Mumbai
Description: It has been found out that there are huge violations, not only from the environmental and social issues, but staggering corruption involved in the 10+ large dams coming up around Mumbai. Nearly all of them are being constructed by one contractor, when the tender conditions stipulate that only one dams can be built by the same contractor in an irrigation circle. Other violations defy imagination. The Water Resources Minister has had to answer some difficult questions about this. With this backdrop, India Against Corruption, SANDRP, Shramik Mukti Sangathana and a number of like minded organizations are holding a brainstorming session of these issues.
