London UK. Trade Unionist and Socialist Party member Hugo Pierre speaks to hundreds outside the Indian High Commission protesting at Indian government complicity in the brutal repression of protests against pollution from the Sterlite copper plant at Thoothukudi, in the Southern State of Tamil Nadu. On May 22nd Indian police fired into a crowd of civilians, killing 12 and wounding over 60 more and police aggression continued killing another person the following day. The killings came after 100 days of protest by citizens demanding the copper plant, owned by a subsidiary of British company Vedanta Resources be shut down. Vedanta, set up by British Indian billionaire Anil Agarwal with UK government help in 2003, is said to be the largest donor to the Indian BJP party of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and is notorious for its polluting activities in India, Goa, Zambia and elsewhere. It is currently expanding its activities with a second plant in Thoothukudi (Tuticorin), despite a long record of dumping toxic waste in the town and operating without proper licenses. The protest at India House calling for an end to Vedanta's crimes and the support for them by the Indian government and for the Stock Exchange to de-list Vedanta. It was organised by Foil Vedanta, Tamil People in UK and PARAI - Voice of Freedom and supported by South Asia Solidarity Group and others including the Socialist Party.
