Crackdown on Forest Rights Activists in India Intensifies
Police personnel taking away mobile signal booster and solar panels that Greenpeace had set up in Amelia village, Mahan forest.
Barely two months after four forest rights activists were arrested from Greenpeace’s Waidhan office, local police officials once again arrested two Van Satyagrahis (Forest Protesters), from their sleep in a midnight raid at the NGO’s guest house in Waidhan, for protesting against an Essar-led coal mine that would destroy the Mahan forest.
