If you want to know how angry TN Chief Minister Jayalalithaa is against the
people who dared to voice a view contrary to the nuclear establishment's,
read the press release attached. Just between September and December 2011,
at a time when the villagers thought Jayalalithaa was supporting their
non-violent struggle, she seems to have instructed the police to file cases
against the demonstrators. 109 FIRs have been filed against 55,795 people
and an undisclosed number of "others." At least 21 sections of the IPC have
been used, include Section 121 (Waging War against the Government of India)
against 3600 people, and Section 124A (Sedition) against 3200 people. The
Koodankulam police station has the dubious distinction, perhaps, of being
the station where the largest number of "sedition" and "waging war" cases
have been filed in the shortest time in the history of colonial and
independent India. The Tamil Nadu's chief minister's actions in suppressing
dissenting voices in Koodankulam make Mamata Banerjee's harsh and
anti-democratic jailing of professors recently seem like the tantrum of a
petulant feudal lord.
ciao, nity
