Abstract: February 2005: There have been terrible demolitions in Mumbai these last weeks and they continue even as we write. It has been a parallel and paradoxical event to the Tsunami and has produced the same devastation, but it is definitely man-made. There have been people`s tribunals, protest meetings and many angry middle-class Indian and international activists e-mailing each other and everyone, asking pointed questions of SPARC, NSDF and Mahila Milan: what are you doing about this? It is a good question in the twentieth year of SPARC`s partnership with people`s organisations.
