[ Noakhali Online Group ] Indian anti-dam protestors 'want hearing too'

 

 As a Bangladesh parliamentary team was mid-way through a visit to India on Thursday to gather data on the controversial Tipaimukh Dam project, Indian anti-dam groups in the northeast state of Manipur called on their government to give them a hearing too. 

Indian groups, Citizens Concern for Dams and Development (CCDD), Committee on Land and Natural Resources (COLNAR) and Action Against the Tipaimukh Dam Project (ACTIP), in a joint statement on the visit of the Bangladesh Parliamentary Committee to the dam site, said the Tipaimukh dam "must be scrapped". 

They said the Indian government gave a warm welcome to the Bangladesh delegation but has not till date given any kind of hearing to those who are going to be affected by the dam in Manipur, Assam and Mizoram.
