HEAR OUR VOICE – ENDOSULFAN WORKERS OF INDIA

HEAR OUR VOICE – ENDOSULFAN WORKERS OF INDIA

The Workers of the Endosulfan family in India say that they have been exposed to endosulfan for over 30 years. Yet none of the farmers have had any health problems. The FRAUD NIOH study has been referred to widely in international conventions and by regulatory authorities worldwide in seeking a ban on Endosulfan. If a ban takes place then the condition of the workers will be worse. The workers seek support for a withdrawal of the NIOH report on Endosulfan by writing to the Prime Minister of India to let their voice be heard. Are you with them?
