Dear friends,
http://www.change.org/petitions/urge-india-to-save-its-people-from-hunger-deaths-2
It'll just take a minute!
Once you're done, please ask your friends to sign the petition as well. Grassroots movements succeed because people like you are willing to spread the word!
I beg you to spend just a few moments for an urgent cause. Some of my esteemed friends may remember that I have been continuously posting reports of hunger deaths of the labourers of tea gardens in Assam for a few months. The tragedy continues unabated.
It is very shocking that tea workers are still dying for lack of adequate food and proper health care. In a single tea estate in South Assam 15 people died within a span of few months. Authorities are not taking effective actions. It is a tragic irony that on the one hand we are talking of adopting tea as our national drink while those who grow it are dying for lack of food.
Please kindly join me in my humble efforts to campaign for preventing hunger deaths of labourers. I have created a petition on change.org: Urge India to save its people from hunger deaths,
I'm trying to collect 1000 signatures, and it is still below 100.
Please support the petition. Save the tea workers:
