NOTE OF MR SHAILESH GANDHI

There is some movement and acceptance for the WEAR WHITE campaign.

Loksatta, Hindustan Times, Mumbai Samachar and Rediff are amongst those who have already reported on this campaign. The Municipal Mazdoor Union has also given its support to it. Some prominent Citizens have promised to come and watch the Corporators from the visitors gallery on Monday, 10th March. A number of people have been saying they will come to Azad Maiadan at 1.30pm on 10th March. If a significant number of Citizens wear white on 9th and 10th, our Corporators may be persuaded to rescind the earlier proposal.

The Loksatta organization is holding a press conference to highlight ‘startling findings’ on this scam at 3.00pm at their office on 7th March. The United Welfare & Education Federation of Jogeshwari is holding a JAWABDYA meeting at Divan Centre at S.V. Road, Jogeshwari (East) at 8.00pm on 7th March. Mujeeb Khan’s group will also perform their street play Halla Bol-Jawabdya on this topic. All are invited to this.

Giving the key elements of this campaign:

1. Wear white clothes on 9th and 10th March. This would represent our hope and faith in the honesty of our elected representatives.

2. Some Citizens who can come should assemble at Azad Maidan opposite the BMC, from 1.30pm to 2.00pm. on 10th March. After that those who can will enter the Corporation and stand in groups of three near the offices of the political parties. We will not say or do anything to hinder anybody. Just allow our white clothes to make our statement.

1. A few eminent Citizens will get passes for the Visitor’s gallery and watch the Corporators from the visitors gallery.

Our demands and expectations are simple:

1. The Corporation administration and the Corporators should discuss the pros and cons of the proposal in a free and fair manner giving the logic for whatever they are saying.

2. Our hope and request is that they will reject the earlier proposal; and decide to evolve a new proposal safeguarding Citizen’s interest.

in the rare event they do not respect our faith, our white clothes will be a mourning for their dishonesty.

Appealing to all Citizens, PLEASE WEAR WHITE ON 9Th and 10Th March.

Wherever you are.
