إيكتا باريشاد
Ekta Parishad is a people’s movement dedicated to non-violent principles of action. Their activists work towards building community-based governance (gram swaraj), local self-reliance (gram swawlamban) and responsible government (jawabdeh sarkar). Their aim is to see India’s poorest people gain control over livelihood resources, especially land, water and forest.
Vision:
Belief in an India where...
"Each one could benefit fromequal and guaranteed access toland, forest and water, and thewhole population - regardless of the origin or cast - could live with dignity."
"A land reform and a development model would take into account thepoorest so that the rights of all citizens would be fairly protected."
"The application of the Gandhian principles of non-violence would ensure respect for the fundamental rights of the vulnerable and marginalized communities."
