New Delhi: Lawyer and author Meena Harris has joined the peasant movement in support of pop star Rihanna and Swedish environmental activist Greta Tunberg. Meena is the daughter of Maya Harris, sister of US Vice President Kamala Harris. He was instrumental in Kamala’s campaign and decisions.
Meena compared the riots in the US capital in early January to the suppression of peasant protests in India. ‘The world’s oldest democracy was attacked less than a month ago. Even the most populous democracy is under attack. These two are related. “India’s internet ban and paramilitary violence against the farmers’ strike are reprehensible,” Meena tweeted.
Aggressive nationalism has as much power in US politics as it does in India or elsewhere. They made it clear that this could only be stopped if people woke up to the fact that fascist dictators were not going anywhere. Amit Malaviya, head of the BJP’s IT cell, said that the support of global celebrities against the Indian government raises doubts as to who is holding the torch of the struggle.
