London, UK. 5th August 2016. Miriam Rose and Samarendra Das hold posters outside the Vedanta AGM against the mining giant, 69% owned by billionaire chairman Anil Agarwal and his family. The company was found guilty of water pollution in Zambia poisoning up to 40,000 people in 2006, and vast taxation frauds have been uncovered. In India they lost a ten year battle to mine the Niyamgiri mountain, sacred to an vulnerable indigenous community, for bauxite but are lobbying the Modi government to reverse the decision.
