Meeting near KR Puram bridge (Feb 7)

3 February 2009 - 3:10pm — silkboard

One suggestion from Safe Passage folks (CKannan, psaram, sheragu) was to organize a street event at the spot. Lets try it this Saturday (Feb 7, 10 AM). This isn't a protest - no holding-placards or slogan shouting type of stuff.
