Beloved brothers and sisters of Kerela,
The defiant lady of Manipur, here, sincerely would like to convince her deep sense of gratitude to you Kerelans whose solidarity with her struggle is great & selfless.
You know, we the rational human beings are masters of conscience. Why should we feel afraid of being defiant to the cause of insane life threatening effects of the one sided greedy acts of mighty capitalists.
I have already read about the horrific side effects of the water plunder Coca-Cola Company and its adamant reaction to the innocent sufferers of Plachimada village whose decade long struggle for life's security which seemed to be coincident with my decade long protest for repealing AFSPA, the draconian law.
If the hazardous exploitation of the public natural resource which created intolerable suffering, were happened to Manipur, the very property of the exploiters would have been devastated very earlier from now; because, we the people of Manipur are very dangerous when we are angry.
We the creations of god are all mortal, created to encounter with the obstacles which we come across on our way to life's goal.
We have enough courage to turn the evils to good.
It is god's inevitable grace for the seekers who face insane obstacles to make a difference in the world. Because, he is our creator, who is so vigilant to our acts and so also always ready to reward us according to our doings.
We need not to be afraid of exerting our sacrificial spirit for the sake of justice within this very short span of life and death.
With sincere love & hopes,
Irom Sharmila Chanu
Human Rights Defender
