AGNI celebrated its 9th anniversary this year by celebrating what it is: A network of citizen groups that comes together to raise a voice that no politics can ignore. The even was held at St. Xavier’s College.
“Enforce the Rule of Law!” was the theme. Failure to do this by various authorities causes nearly all of our city’s troubles, from violation of land use regulations and poor civic services, to disappearing open spaces and deteriorating law and order. Politics and their nexus with vested interests are increasingly responsible.
The keynote address was delivered by Justice Dhananjay Chandrachud while leaders of our partner organizations made brief addresses.
We also considered continuing a “Pledge” program that began in Andheri on Sunday, April 6, 2008. Over 500 citizens at a Rally pledged to vote for persons who stood for the Rule of Law.
