Dear Friends,

Dr. Vandana Shiva was invited by CNBC on Karan Thapar's show. They had a
debate on Mining and its ecological, social and political impact. The
panelist included Justice Santosh Hegde, Lokayukta, Karnataka, Mr. Samar
Halarnkar, Editor at Large,Hindustan Times and Dr. Vandana Shiva, Founder
Director, Navdanya.

The debate covered the following issues -

Does mining need more regulation or less regulation?
Have deregulation of mining increased corruption?
Will the corruption associated with mining be addressed by one or two
officials or by respecting the rights of people and the laws such as PESA
and the Forest Rights Act?

These issues become vital in the context of the Mining Bill coming up in
the Parliament.

Please watch the debate.

Telecast timing -

August 1, 2011 at 10.30 pm
August 2, 2011 at 4.30 pm

Warm regards,
Priya
