The바카라 웹사이트‘We20’ people라이브 바카라 summit aims to present a mirror of reality in contrast to the바카라 웹사이트glitz surrounding the G20 summit that India is set to host. The G20 Leaders' Summit is scheduled to be held at the Bharat Mandapam International Exhibition-Convention Centre on September 9-10.
The group which consists of eminent journalists, activists and politicians from across the country, has organised similar workshops and events in the past. On May 22, a public hearing addressing the pressing issue of forced evictions in India was held바카라 웹사이트at Surjeet Bhawan, New Delhi.
"While the glitter, glitz and pride around hosting the G20 has become an exercise of showcasing the “development” story of the regime, the public hearing brought to fore what is carefully omitted, i.e., the brutal saga of bulldozers razing homes to dust," a press release issued by the group had said.
