Loud voice for Yourself

In this Mansoon season government are coming with two bills :-
1.  Nuclear liability bill
2.  BRAI Bill
                               
1.  Nuclear liability bill:-

In Nuclear liability bill, we want to unlimited liability for operators in the light of Bhopal Tragedy, which is justified. The Committee has accepted some of the changes suggested by Greenpeace, but has ignored unlimited liability. In its current form the bill limits the liability for operator of the nuclear facility and if the impacts of a nuclear accident cross it, then the Indian tax payers will be footing the bill.


Nuclear is risky and the Government should exercise highest caution. The Prime Minister, keen on clearing this bill, needs to know that we want unlimited liability.

Can you write to PM Manmohan Singh asking him to incorporate unlimited liability in the bill?

2.  BRAI Bill


The Biotechnology Regulatory Authority of India (BRAI) bill has been approved by the Cabinet and will be tabled in the Parliament soon.

The BRAI bill will clear genetically modified (GM) crops overriding the concerns raised by the general public and state governments against GM food. The Cabinet cleared this bill in a hurried and hushed fashion, denying people a chance to voice their opinion.

But there is a way to change this bill. Sonia Gandhi, Chairperson of the National Advisory Council (NAC) can force the Government to re-draft the bill with suggestions from the public. It has been done before and can happen again if the opposition to the bill in its current form is known.

Can you sign the open letter to Sonia Gandhi asking the NAC to make the Government consult people before tabling the bill?
