The Hindu
Permanent protest pavilion was launched on October 2, 2020
Social activist Medha Patkar will speak at a protest pavilion of K-Rail Janakeeya Pratirodha Samithi at Kattil Peedika, Vengalam, at 9 a.m. on Monday.
Protest committee chairman T.T. Ismail told reporters here on Saturday that Ms. Patkar’s visit would be a definite boost to the anti-K-Rail protests going on across the State.
The Samithi at Vengalam was the first to launch a protest in the State against the semi high-speed SilverLine rail project in June 2020. They organised several protests until October 2020 and launched a permanent protest pavilion at Kattil Peedika on October 2, 2020. Ms. Patkar’s visit falls on the 465th day of the protest.
