ALL INDIA STUDENTS' ASSOCIATION (AISA) Press Release/ Invitation
New Delhi, 24.2.08 Protest Demonstration against US Defense Secy Robert Gates' Visit to India and signing of Indo-US 'Logistics Support Agreement' 25 Feb.08, Monday, at 1pm at Jantar Mantar. To, The Bureau Chief/ Editor, On 26 Feb, US Defence Secretary Robert Gates is due for a visit to India, to ink in a 'Logistics Support Agreement' (LSA) between the two countries. It is yet another indicator that far from being on hold, the Indo-US 'civilian' Nuke Deal and all its attendant military deals are all well on track. The LSA is essentially a barter of goods and services between the Armed Forces of both countries, but it will effectively oblige the Indian Armed Forces to provide a range of services to the US Armed Forces. This will turn the Indian forces into mercenaries of US army, and is also a backdoor method of enlisting India into a NATO-type alliance. AISA is organizing a Protest Demonstration of students from Delhi University, JNU and Jamia Millia Islamia against US Defense Secy Robert Gates' Visit to India and signing of Indo-US 'Logistics Support Agreement'. Protest demonstration will be held on 25 Feb.08, Monday, at 1pm at Jantar Mantar. Please send your correspondent and photographer to cover the demonstration.
