Dear friends,

Perhaps you are aware that even after two years, the Christian adivasi and
dalit survivors of the Kandhamal
<http://orissaconcerns.net/kandhamal>violence are still struggling for
justice.

Thousands of people cannot go back to their own lands and many are still
living in tents in Kandhamal. Education of  children is disrupted and their
trauma is still continuing. The culprits of communal violence are getting
acquitted without any punishment from the courts.

In this context, the National Solidarity
Forum<http://www.nationalsolidarityforum.org/>,
a coalition of over 50 organisations from different parts of the country
have given a call for protests, public meetings or any other civil society
action on August 25, 2010  as `Kandhamal
Day<http://orissaconcerns.net/2010/08/kandhamal-day/>'.
Since the attacks on Christians have taken place in over 10 states in India,
the local issues may also be taken up along with the event.

As part of the  call for
protest<http://orissaconcerns.net/2010/08/kandhamal-day/>on August
25th two dalit artists, Shashi Memuri and Venkatesh  have
completed a series of paintings and sketches for an exhibition on the
situation in Kandhamal after visiting more than 50 villages in the area
recently. These can be downloaded from the http://orissaconcerns.net and
print outs can be taken in A/3 size.

We request all secular groups and organizations to make use of this
exhibition before, during or after Kandhamal
Day<http://orissaconcerns.net/2010/08/kandhamal-day/>,
in colleges, schools, institutions and public places. If the exhibition is
organized in your area before  Kandhamal Day it may also be contribute to
the public action on August 25th.

We plan to cover your solidarity actions/protest reports and news in
OrissaConcerns.net. Please send reports and photographs of your actions to
anivar@movingrepublic.org and nptkandhamal@gmail.com so that other groups
will also be informed and inspired by your action.
