More bloodshed expected around POSCO Odisha Project

On March 22, two men from India stood holding a protest in front of the firmly closed doors of the POSCO center...Human rights activist Direhdra Panda and human rights lawyer Chandranath Dani described the situation in Odisha by saying, “The police are currently blockading three villages that are against the Indian government’s forced land expropriation for the POSCO Odisha steel factory”. Dani said, “The residents of these villages aren’t able to leave their houses because the police are issuing arrest warrants to everyone who opposes the construction”.
